Stumbled across this coin operated Nishijin pachinko machine that was made or maybe assembled from a retired pachinko machine then added a coin op cabinet. The machine does light up, but has a few play issues that should be overcome by a good cleaning and some TLC. Hopefully will be able to work this into my current winter schedule.
Would like to find a little more information or a copy of any documents pertaining to these machines from the Performance Enterprise Inc. that was located in Ft. Lauderdale Fl...
Was hoping to come with with some kind of date during the fixing up process but was unable. I am assuming that probably mid 70's would be about right, the vintage of the added electronics and the .25 charge for game play is the reason for the guess..
After a bit and moving to a new home, found a little time a got this old machine operating very well. Grand-kids have been hounding me for some time, well that can now quit and they can play. :-)
Hint: If you have a Pachinko Machine.. NEVER oil them, only clean. That was the whole trouble with this one, someone gave it a 5 quarts when it need none. :-).
Hi do you still have this? I just purchased one and the wiring is all ripped out or missing.
Could you take some details photos for me? I'd love to get this one up and running

Yes I would, what is your contact for getting the pictures to you?
Hi Dan, I have 2 of these. One works properly. The other one pays out balls 3x when you put the quarter in, but if you hit any gameplay payout with a ball, you get nothing. The switch above the payoff actuator functions but does not get the signal to the payoff balls...The ball, actuator and switch work properly. Any ideas? Thanks
There are a few question regarding operation on this machine and are looking to solve problems with ones that they own.
This is probably not a good forum for that as it seems that I am unable to answer directly.
What I can tell you, is that the main board quit operating for me, so, I programmed a micro controller to make the game work differently and more acceptable for home play. Thus what I have is unique only to me and I am not able to help with your questions. I would suggest search out groups on Facebook that work with theses machines, there are several.
