Pachislo ARCHADE Slot Machine. LOL

[ussexplorer]

Pachislo is a machine with 3 to 4 spinning reels. Deposit tokens and pull handle located on front of unit. Then press 3 buttons on the front of the machine to stop each reel. One button per reel.

 

Keeping this low profile as possible. I picked up a Oylmpia Pachislo machine from Toys R Us on clearance. The box says Arcade all over it and avoids calling it a slot machine. But it is 100% real and for $99.00 I couldn't pass it up. Complete with lCD screen. Nice Touch. This uses token mostly and can be converted to quarters. Some of the options I found for the machine is.

 

Quarter Conversion

Auto stop

One Arm Bandit add on.

 

 

Prices for these items vary.

 

Anyway just wondering if any of you gents or gals out there had such a critter.

The Sam's Club in my neighborhood was selling these last year for around $200. They called them Japanese Skill-Stop slots and they weren't new but were refurbished. I thought they were cool but couldn't see spending $200 for one. Now for $100 that might be different.

I can't have one.

 

When I went to order one, I was told that Oregon considers these easily modifiable to be real slot machines and they can't sell to me.

 

Like a private party with one of these would be a crime syndicate or something.

 

Most likely has more to do wtih that face that Oregon has some legalized slot machines and they don't want any reason for me not to use their machines!

 

Which I don't. Never would. Not a gambler, but a Pachislo I thought would look nice next to the arcade machine.

 

 

Oh well..

$99? Is that the normal price? What area of the store was it in?

Well, sorry if you got the idea of new. But it is used. Well new in the box. So refurb or what ever you want to call it. It was in the isle with the table top games. At least in this toys r us. I only been to like 2 toys are us and both are designed slightly differently. In fact if I remeber correctly. The store in boise idaho had to pull theres. Guess the one down in idaho falls idaho was lucky. It is kinda a gray line in idaho. I know if I put this in a bar or other public place. It cannot pay out. Even with just tokens. Among other things. There is a group who argues that these are illegal even in a home. But the only ones I have ever heard about was one house that had a basement of gambling. The old card table. slot machines and such. So a underground gambling club. LOL
