How to Enjoy Pachinko
Pachinko is a popular leisure game unique to Japan: It is a type of "pinball.
" Balls can be exchanged for presents.

Shoot a small metal ball into the box-shaped game machine.
If the ball enters a winning hole after moving through the nails,
many balls will come out.
Select a promising machine and purchase 50 balls for 50 "Yen.
" Shoot each ball by flicking the lever with the mouse.
Each pachinko machine has spots where a ball can easily enter a winning hole.
Adjust your strength when flicking the ball.
Do not hit the machine because you cannot get more balls.
The directions of the nails slightly differ depending on the pachinko machine.
If the balls do not enter a winning hole, select another machine after "exchanging your balls for Yen."
After all, the most important point is the "timing of when you quit.
" You can exchange balls for "En" at any time.
As the direction of the nails in a pachinko machine is finely adjusted occasionally,
you cannot always win even if using the same pachinko machine continuously.

For your information, the middle-aged woman sitting beside
the game machine used to be an idol in the pachinko industry,
and pachinko machines were manufactured with motifs of the younger days of her.
Today "pictures of younger days" smile from the face of pachinko machines.
