Pachinko/Pachinco – this is a form of gambling – flashing lights and very loud slot like machines with people in a zombie like state feeding them coins and in return they are drip fed small rewards to keep them hooked – just like the pokies back home.

A pachinko parlor in Naha, Okinawa, Japan.
Pachinko parlours abound in Tokyo. This one is located in Kabukico, in Shinjuku ward. Kabukicho is regarded as one of the more serious red-light districts in Tokyo. This is a small slice of an enormous Pachinko parlour with hundreds of machines. The noise emanating from this parlour was extraordinary. I am sure frequent Pachinko-ists will suffer hearing problems. R e f l e x i o
