Anyone know what this machine may be worth? I'm not sure of the name because of course it's Japanese. Looks in real nice shape, works 100%. Any idea what I should or could get for this? Thanks!

I'd say at most $150. no lower than $100. I've been a pachislo/pachinko guy for around 6 years and sold them for around 2 years. They used to fly out the door but lately they just seem to sit around.
 
In my area, $50 to $125 if your lucky... They are a hard sell these days, used to be able to get $100+ easy. I bought my father a boot leg Indiana Jones themed one with the large LCD on CL for $40 working 100%, I sold a similar one myself two years ago for $100, bought it for $50. To me they seemed cool at first, then with the blaring volume, words being screamed at you in another language, having to throw in a million tokens and having no freakin clue what the hell was going on... I sold mine as fast as I could....

List it for $150, then lower it if you have no bites.... There is someone for everything!

Find the instructions on the internet as to how to reset them and how to raise the odds of winning and you can have a blast with them.

I set my Derby Boy by Sammy to a setting of 5 out of 6 (6 being the easiest) and it's a hoot to play. You can get it to hit the bonus rounds once a day with a couple hundred tokens played max.

Also, get some 250 ohm 2 watt pots and some industrial strength double sided tape. Tape the back of the pot and place one next to each speaker then wire it in series with one of the speaker leads. It works WONDERS on lowering the volume to something realistic. It takes a bit of tweaking to get the volume right but once you do it's GAME ON!

PS: Make sure you have enough tokens in it for the bonus rounds!

oh yeah...always gotta have it on either 5 or 6. I bought a machine from a guy who said he never got a bonus round in 2 years, sure enough it was set to 1. here's a vid for changing odds(it says it's for a Sammy machine but the procedure is the same for 99% of these machines) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-lWNhwHXp24
