There are pachinko parlors out there that people say you should never go to, and here you truly can't even play, let alone win. Naturally there are no customers, but it seems even a backwater pachinko parlor like this somehow stays in business with every day being a collection day.

When I looked at the nails on Madomagi 3, they'd even messed with nails that normally shouldn't be touched in order to reduce jackpot payouts, and it gave me chills. First time in the last 10 years I've seen adjustments like this.

Not just in this area, but one of the top collection parlors in Osaka and Kinki. Basically you can't even play. Bent nails, and the handles are voltage-altered handles. Even when you hit, they hold back payouts and it doesn't chain. Zero corporate effort, so weekdays are empty... They don't pay out on holidays either, they go all-out collecting while they can. It doesn't feel like a place you can drop by casually to play, just a high-rate gambling den. The one at Hirakatashi Station seems better, and the customers seem to have moved there, leaving only aging regulars; my impression is that once they're gone, this place is done too. Since I'm never going again, I'll say it: the staff quality is bad, the management is incompetent, and I can only hope it closes soon.

Dishonest handling of problems A parlor with no coordination as an organization Never using it again💢💢💢 I cashed out my stored medals too. For those considering going here, I'm sharing the facts of what actually happened. Employees turn a blind eye to customers' disruptive behavior Floor employees pretended not to see a customer checking other customers' game counts I was told they'd given a strict warning, but that's highly doubtful; when I called the parlor the next day to confirm, it hadn't been reported. I suspect a culture of cover-ups on the floor. There's no information sharing among floor employees, just stopgap answers, creating an environment where customers who play honestly by the rules lose out and those who cause trouble get preferential treatment. I feel nothing but distrust. A hall I absolutely can't recommend to anyone who values staff conduct and transparency of information. Like this comment, G1 Minpachi also seems to be a review site dedicated to pachinko. I hope you'll use it for reference.

The slots have almost no settings put in. They seem to reset, but there are also people crab-walking (moving machine to machine). Just because there are a lot of elderly customers, I wish they'd give the settings a bit more thought...
