Japanese pinball "Pachinko"




Pachinko is one of the mass entertainments that spread most in Japan.
The pachinko parlor is seen anywhere when walking in waiting in Japan.
It is peculiar play to Japan that looks alike to the bottle ball game.
The front side of the pachinko stand is glazed.
Some holes of the target have become empty on an inside board side, and a lot
of nails guard the surroundings.
The player types out the gem of steel like big bean grain up by operating the electronic steering wheel between the panel and the glass aiming.
Then, the gem is printed between pins from the upper part, comes off, and drops. Ten gems or more come out from the machine if the gem enters the hole of the target.
The player can keep playing a game, and can exchange it by using the gem that went out for prizes such as the cigarette and food when collecting enough.
Do you play if coming to Japan?

Thanks for explaining what Pachinko is. My best friend (who's Japanese) always tells me about Pachinko but I never understood how it's played.
