    Default Star Wars Pachinko or Tekken Pachislo ?

    Hmm.....

    I only have the remaining budget ( and play space ) to get one of these ....

    I have 2 pachislo machines so far :

    - Metal Slug
    - Hanabi Hyakkei

    Ive never played Pachinko, but it looks like a lot of fun ! However, there seem to be more technical issues with a Pachinko, and getting a decent cabinet in the UK would be quite difficult.......

    Do I go with the Pachinko or stay with the trusty pachislo to complete my game set up ? Please help me decide !

    I would go with a pachinko over a pachislo.

    Slots have excellent fun big bonuses, but pachinko is more fun overall.

    Find a pachinko somewhere to play before commiting money to it. While a lot of us find this very enjoyable, some people simply don't get the same enjoyment out of them.
    Meanwhile, somewhere in Oklahoma.

    I was in Tokyo in Novemeber, and stupidly I spent so much time on videogame related stuff that I din't take the opportunity to go and play .......admittedly I was very pleased with the arcade hardware I picked up, and getting the chance to play some of the latest arcade games was a buzz......but I am really regretting not hunting down a game of Pachinko.......

    I love pinball , pachislo, anime and videogemes, and most things Japanese in general, so I'm pretty sure I'd like it......

    I'll have to track somewhere down and give it a go....

    Star wars for sure, and for some reason that you don't like it. I'am sure that some other members here would be happy to take it off your hands.

    Cheers

    I agree with TULSA in that you should try one out first and make up you own mind.

    well........

    decided to go for it anyway - couldn't really have a mini Japanese arcade without a Pachinko could I ?

    My set up is now:

    - Star Wars pachinko
    - Metal Slug pachislo
    - Hanabi Hyakkei pachislo

    - Sega Aero city cab running Street Fighter Alpha 3 + other CPS2 games

    -Atomiswave set up via Supergun - 2 games

    - Neo geo MVS set up via Supergun - 16 various games


    Oh ..... and a PC as this is supposedly a home office ........

    Yes,you did good getting a Star Wars. I believe not only is it the nicest machine on the market but I expect it to be a good investment in the long run once there are no more to be had. Its a cross over collectable really,both pachinko and Star Wars collectors will want one.
