    Default Help figuring out this early 80's Nishijin please?!

    Hi all! My grandfather used to have a few pachinko machines lying around the house when we were kids and I loved playing with them. I woke up the other morning thinking about them for the first time in probably 20 years and decided to buy a few. The one more modern purchase I made on ebay yesterday was for an 80's Nishijin but the photos are super blurry and I'm wondering if anyone could help me find and/or tell me more information/photos about the machine! The best photo is the close up detail of the top and it looks like there are two mario-like characters with the words "bomb" around them.

    Many thanks in advance to anyone who can help!!

    Sweet thanks! Looking forward to getting it and playing with it. Comes with 200 balls - Should I buy some more before it gets here to be ready? 500? Do I need more?

    yes..you will need more balls. For these machines a minimum of 800 to 1,000 would be best.

    Vintages can be played with a little less... 500 to 800.. but you'll end up refilling constantly.

    There is no set required number (other than enough to trip the hopper empty lever) but the more you have the less often you will have to stop game play and refill.

    I try to keep an average of 1,000 balls per machine plus another 5 hundred to be 'in play'.
