KYORAKU pachinko machines

A Japanese manufacturer whose official company description includes planning, development, manufacture and sale of pachinko and pachislot machines.

What to photograph

Photograph KYORAKU branding wherever it appears, including rear labels and internal assemblies, and transcribe Japanese model text rather than relying on an English seller title. Licensed themes can have multiple machine releases, so the character name alone may not identify the cabinet.

Identification checks

  • Look for KYORAKU marks on labels, cabinet components and documentation.
  • Model identification should include the exact machine title and variant.
  • Licensed artwork can dominate the face while technical labels reveal the machine.

Buying and restoration context

On a KYORAKU electronic machine, completeness of decorative modules, displays and rear electronics can matter as much as cabinet cosmetics. Ask for a continuous startup/operation video and a clear description of what was modified for home use.
