    Default pachinko in Japanese movies

    I put together a post looking at a scattershot of how pachinko is seen in Japanese cinema.

    http://pinballnovice.blogspot.com/20...se-cinema.html


    I have a list on the page of movies I am looking for, please let me know if you can assist.

    WANTED:
    1949 - 私刑(リンチ) (Rinchi)
    1952 - 大当りパチンコ娘 (Big hit pachinko girl)
    1956 - 弥次喜多道中記 (Travel Chronicles of Yaji and Kita)
    1962 - ちんじゃらじゃら物語 / Chinjarajara Monogatari
    1963 - 虎の子作戦 (Operation Torako)
    WANTED: 10¥ games, pre-1950s machines, スマートボール (Smart Ball), payazzo/kronespill, Pickwick-style (~1905)
    if you have any of these in North America, let's talk.

    I downloaded Tokyo Ga last night and watched it - your observations are spot on! I hope this research finds a life beyond a casual blog, there are some good intersections of aesthetic readings and colonial thinking (in the foreign cinema part)
