I'm all for the pachinko! Go to www.pachitalk.com It's very informative and you'll find a lot of pinball guys over there too! (Emmadog and Steve Fury come to mind)

I used to have about 20 machines lined up in my basement, until my wife said she was tired picking up "pachinko poop"! Nothing more awesome than hearing that vacuum cleaner sucking up a pachinko ball!

Julie is the bomb! I've had a bunch of old ones.....Nishijin, Sankyo, Matuya, Daiichi....single shots, recyclers, standards. The modern ones I had was Star Wars, Matrix, Tom and Jerry, Kungfu Panda, and Spiderman. Loved my powerflashes (had 3), but never got a chance to get an arrangeball.

And on the "loudness", I always added an extra pot going to the speakers, because yes....they where always too loud! I miss them, but I enjoy my pinballs more. If I had more room, I would add a few. I have my Mini Baseball (Chicago coin) and that takes care of my fix.

Here's a few of my favorites that I used to have! Sold them all...sniff, sniff!

I still fix them for folks. I find that most people have some story behind the machine, so they really appreciate the restore.
