When we used to live in the Phillipines in 1973-75. My parents bought one of those panchinko machines. I wished I still had it, it was fun. My 12 year, asked me what it look like. Now I found an video I can show her what these machines looked like. Thanks for the video.
Dan-- someone just gave me this exact machine. My first Pachinko machine without knowing anything about them. Needs work, but came with the balls, and everything appears to be there mechanically. Can't wait to start working on it. Your video was very informative to me.
Dan, I had no idea you were into these sort of things. First time I came across one of these, was when I was 7, a neighbor of mine, an elderly man, had one in his garage and I've played it a few times. Was a LOT of fun when I young. Your kid will love it.
i have the same machine.your upper bells should close up once a ball enters it.it does not remain open..the only time it opens up is when you put a ball in the center 3 hole chute..the ones you said opens up only the lower bells..thus,all the bells open up when either of the side holes are entered..this will make the machine much harder to win balls with..as of your present set up,it's too easy to win..also the year is 1974..cool!
Should there be a cover on the lower half of the chute going from the "winning ball tray" to the "jackpot," in the area directly above the Trigger for "Jackpot?" The balls in mine seem to stack on top of each other until they eventually prevent any balls from entering the "jackpot." Thanks in advance.
I think your machine is older than 1985. That is a sticker showing the last year is was legally used in a parlor. I have a Nishijin "Deluxe Super" machine from the early seventies.
I just bought one exactly like it! My machine is missing two of the "spinning wheels" on the left and right, top (your machine it's the orange slot-like things...mine is green). It makes it a 'very loose slot' as I win too much! Do you know where I can get these little do-hickies?

@danjreed Thanks... contacted him already!
Also, thanks to your video, I now know that there are two lights in the rainbow... I only have one up there, and it's the 'out of balls' light.
