100% Authentic!

Yep, this is the real deal. Even has the sound of the steel balls hitting the glass window. Great physics and understated lights, just like the original ones! Almost a decade and I still go back to it.

玉の入り方に違いがあるようですが、やはり素晴らしいプログラミングだと考え直し、評価を上げました。良いゲームをありがとうございます。

Great Fun

This is a great app. I love all of the settings available and the authenticity of the pachinko experience it brings. I have two suggestions to bring this to the next level. First, update the high scores table to count according to balls started. It’s not fair that someone with 50 balls to start gets the same treatment as someone starting with 10 just because they get the same amount of balls rewarded.

Second, make a lefty mode — my right thumb gets sore after all that flicking!

All in all a terrific app. Thanks!

I love this game

Please update this for iOS 11, so that it will continue to work.

Authentic look and feel

One of my boyhood friends had a pachinko machine at his house. Playing this game reminds me of that. I think it would be difficult to get a more authentic look and feel in a phone. The app could be improved in minor ways; the sound has audible hum and the ball physics suffers a bit from the small screen. However, in my opinion it is well worth the money I paid for it. I too would like to see in app purchases for diverse machines.

Now that I've played the game for a while, there are a few bugs for which players should be warned. The settings screen doesn't allow one to abort the game. If the abort button is pushed, the settings screen becomes unusable. When that happens the player is locked into whatever game they are playing. There is at least a 1 in 25 chance of sinking a ball, so the 25 ball per goal game is almost impossible to lose. With no abort, the player will be stuck in that game. Also the top scores do not work.

So keep the game on the 3 or 5 ball per goal settings and it is enjoyable.

Somewhat addictive, but...

It has a most-accurate pachinko randomness, while a digital counter keeps track of balls won, and balls left.
The disappointment is a HIGH SCORES talley, that doesn't record ANY scores (let alone your high achievements.
Even better would be, if you could merely TOUCH the particular High Score Scenario you want to beat, to begin a game.
NO NETWORK CAPABILITY!

Best rendition

I keep playing...

Best app I have

This is the best game app that I have very good feel like the gravity that the game has I am a 42-year-old man and my kids do not get what I like this app they were just born at the wrong time. LOL. A VARIETY OF GAMES INSTEAD OF ONE WOULD BE NICE!

As real as it gets!

This simulation is as near perfect as it gets. I own a pachinko machine and they nailed it with this app. Recommended to any pachinko lover!

It isn't as fun anymore

I got this app about 2 years ago, one of the first on my iphone, and loved it. I don't know quite what has changed but it isn't fun to play anymore because scoring seems like a rare accident instead of something I have anything to do with. Almost like the change from real handles to electronic firing.

Recently I have seen runs of over 100 shots where nothing went in. Before, it was possible to move the handle position slightly and change the trajectory slightly. Now the handle position doesn't seem to have the same effect, a little change might have no effect or it might launch the ball on a dramatically different path. The balls also act much more "live", bouncing off posts really fast and not coming off at the angles they would need to drop into little spaces.

I am using Pachinko on an iPhone 3GS running iOS 5.0.1. I notice that with this combination many apps, not just Pachinko, perform differently than they did in the past - some faster, some slower, much more variability in performance. (Some work better in airplane mode.) For real-time computation apps based on user hand-eye coordination, changes in the OS could really foul up the user experience.

I don't know what happened to Pachinko or whether it's changes were intended by the developers or whether the change in the computing environment of the phone is responsible. In any case, Pachinko is more boring than it used to be because I don't have any illusion of controlling the handle anymore. It was my favorite before.

Love it

Great realistic representation of the older, all mechanical, pachinko machines. Addicted!

Real vintage pachinko

I have about 5 vintage pachinko apps and this is the only one to deliver a true virtual pachinko experience.

The play field is authentic down to the working tulips.
But it's the real pachinko sounds that make this game stand out above all the others.

If you enjoy vintage pachinko DON'T miss this one !!

The Best Pachinko!

My brother had a real Pachinko machine, and this game is as close to the real thing as you can get! Including the sound effects. This game is well worth getting!!
It might be cool to have different skins, to have an animation where you see the balls loading and being used from the hopper at the bottom.

Wonderful game! Have missed mine...

My family used to own a real Pachinko game when we were young, which I "inherited" when everyone left home. When I had to retire and downsize I had to give it up & I have REALLY missed it. This game looks a little different but plays almost identically to the one we had - it is marvelous! Nice going!! I would only like it better if I understood better how it tracks High Scores ... am not sure that's working right or I am understanding how to set that up...

Best Pachinko App in the App Store!!!

I've downloaded several Pachinko apps, and by far, this is the best one. I own a vintage Pachinko machine, and the sound effects of this app are perfect, right down to the balls tapping on the glass as they fall through the pins, the sound of the balls hitting the pins, the sound of the lever being flicked, the launch of the balls, and the sound of the balls exiting the play area. If you're looking for an authentic Pachinko machine app, I recommend this one over all the others, and it's less expensive. Great job!

Needs more machines

Gets boring after winning once. Good for a couple of hours.

Vintage Pachinko machine

Awsome game!! I own 4 real Vintage Pachinko machines and this app is as real as it gets. The sound and the way the ball bounces off the nails and the lights and bell when you hit a payout Well worth the money lots of fun! I have other Pachinko apps that I paid more money for and are not as REAL as this one.. Great App Guys

玉戻りがストレスになる。

発射レールに玉戻り防止板が無い上、玉の弾きが軽い為、ブッコミを狙うと超高確率で発射レールに玉が入ってしまい、プレーが中断されます。
その他、レバーも過敏で狙いがシビア過ぎるので、レバーのあそびが設定できてくれると嬉しい。
それらが修正されれば星追加です。

Fantastic

This is a fantastic pachinko simulation. Sounds and gameplay are exactly as the real pachinko machine I had years ago. Would love to see it updated to full HD glory on the iPad.
