No, this is NOT France :-) I cannot believe there are so many of these in Tokyo. When I first heard of a Pachinko Palour, I thought it is a hanky-panky kinda place ... think Massage Palour.
But no! It is what a local described as "Vertical Pinballs". Or you may think of it as a Jackpot / One-Arm Jack machine. You can see young and old playing.
Truly amazing... |
