    Default Do Pachinko Knob Controllers Exist For PCs in particular using modern USB

    Saw this video.

    And later discovered this for the PlayStation.

    Now I know for other games like pinball and slots have controllers simulating their actual cabinet machines so I wonder if Pachinko has the same for PC? Are here any modern USB ones that use a knob like mechanics?


    I ask because I want to play emulated Pachinko games on PC as close as possible to playing on an actual Pachinko cabinet. I assume Japan has released some on computer system at least during the 80s and 90s? Even if no modern USB peripheral exist, I have a special adapter for the old computer gaming ports so common on MS Dos and Windows back in the 90s that attaches it to a USB connector to work on modern computers. So even vintage computer controls will work. So long as its a round knob that turns around just like the real machnes.

    try a google search of パチンココントローラ

    I only know of one PC type controller and that used a PS-2 mouse/keyboard connector. I think
