    Do you have any pictures you could post? That would help us determine the period and year. You might also get some additional information as well.

    There is a fine line between "hobby" and "mental illness."

    Hmmmmmm
    http://777.nifty.com/cs/catalog/777_...g_220190_1.htm

    The date keeps coming back as July 2002 but I'm sure thats the CR version of the machine

    But that doesn't look like a circuit board from 1981. The frame looks to clean too
    Sorry

    It is King Hosuke V - and it is a Heiwa brand kenri. Thanks alphaminor.

    If you need more info, just yell. Oh - the kanji is this キングホー助V if you want to do searches in Google yourself for videos and other blogs from Japanese owners?

    The machine is not from January. The hall debut was in July according to the Heiwa website, Pachinko Vista, P-World, and etc.

    The last letter of the three letter code (not posted) is for the month of manufacture.

    The name in Nihongo is キングホー助V. Only one of the characters is kanji.

    Thanks - I'll change my website date.

    The rest is minor, but correct samhain - the first 5 characters are indeed KATAKANA, only the second last is kanji, and the final character is the romaji 'V', to be 100% technically correct.

    Either way, copy the japanese we gave you, input it in Google, and you'll come up with some more info for yourself.
