    Talking Need Advice on purchasing my 1st pachinko machine!

    Hi, I've decided to buy my first pachinko machine, and I need advice on what model would be good for a begginer. I would like to get one with a LCD display. Any suggestions is greatly appreciated.

    Arby has another Star Wars on ebay right now, can't go wrong there.

    Welcome to pachitalk ofield. You will find a lot of varying opinions. As you know you can find a lot of the models here:

    None of my pachinko's have LCD's. So I really couldn't say, but Arby probably has owned must of them (as have others). So he could probably help you more on this issue. But whatever you choose I am sure you will enjoy it.

    Wow, Thanks for the quick response guys. Two models I'm ineterested in are Sea World & Carnivale, but there not in the museum. Anybody have any info on them ? Another quick question, why aren't there more sites that sell pachinko machines ?

    Check out the "Spoilers" thread in Modern Pachinko. Zoneacgamer is wildly enthusiastic about his new Yellow Cab.

    a lot of packinkos get stripped for parts in japan,

    lcds are used for other applications and parts are used to keep other machines running.

    Thanks, found info on carnivale still looking for info on sea world. Do different models/games vary in difficulty? Is one game harder than another?

    Also will the Lord of the Rings game eventually come down in price?
