Regular vs Cyclic Pachinko:
What's that?
A pachinko machine in it's natural habitat, a parlor, works simply as an upright pinball/slot machine combo. You fire balls into the playfield using the right hand control knob and aim for the reward pockets. Getting in any of them pays out more balls, getting into the center pocket starts the slot reels spinning and hopes for a jackpot of lots of balls. Ball then can be redeemed for prizes (or cash - via a workaround). Lots of on screen games, music, cut scenes and extras.
Thus on a regular Pachinko machine you'll need balls to shoot and then more to load the machine with for winnings..
If you'd rather not have to deal with moving shot balls around and would just like to play ask us for a Cyclic machine!
On a Cyclic machine the internal ball track has been modified to direct shot balls back out the front and into the shooter tray to be shot again and again!
Now, no you don't get a huge pile of winning balls piling up when you hit on this machine BUT you also don't have a huge pile of balls to deal with. Unless you have your own redemption center in your home this is an awesome way to enjoy pachinko without the hassle of balls.
If you've got kids playing in your home they can play forever without any help too!
Some of our in stock machines are already modified and we can order them up modified from Japan - please ask.
*And last note: as far as we know this mod is a permanent change and can not be reversed*

How Pachinko Works Without
- A typical modern Pachinko game consists of the upper hopper where you deposit balls, the lower hopper where balls you win are collected, the game controls, the vertically mounted maze into which the balls are fired, the video screen positioned behind the maze and completely visible in the center, and an inaccessible hopper in the back of the machine. The video screen plays clips from movies or television.
- My first pachinko machine was a Sankyo I purchased from Pachinko Palace in 1978. I loved to play it so much that I took it apart to see how it worked. I knew then that I had the talent to work on them because when I put it back together everything worked.
