Neutrality Man Posted October 28, 2015 Report Share Posted October 28, 2015 I know, but I don't understand what "Pachinko" is slang for in this case.It's not slang for anything. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pachinko Link to example image only because it's fuckhugehttps://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/4/43/Mechanical_sankyo_pachinko_machine.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Konami is disposing of many of their not-as-lucrative divisions so that they can focus more on iOS microtransaction-ridden games and Pachinko Machines using the IPs that were created under their name. Now whenever someone wants Konami to make something, it would be a common response to say that it will happen as a Pachinko Machine....That still makes no sense when talking about a physical card game. It's forcing a meme at the expense of any semblance of reality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lonk Posted October 28, 2015 Report Share Posted October 28, 2015 ...That still makes no sense when talking about a physical card game. It's forcing a meme at the expense of any semblance of reality. It's not forcing anything if it is already happening IRL with other IPs of Konami. This is a Wish thread after all, and all wishes given to Konami come true in the form of Pachinko Machines. Just ask Castlevania and Silent Hills fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neutrality Man Posted October 28, 2015 Report Share Posted October 28, 2015 Yeah, it is, because you cannot get physical cards from a Pachinko machine.Pretty sure people said that about Arcade machines too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know, but I don't understand what "Pachinko" is slang for in this case.This is the first time I've seen anyone think "Pachinko" is slang for something in this context.
