ABOUT US

My first pachinko machine was a Sankyo I purchased from Pachinko Palace in 1978. I loved to play it so much that I took it apart to see how it worked. I knew then that I had the talent to work on them because when I put it back together everything worked. I got my second pachinko, a Nishijin, at a second hand store as part of a deal on a used washing machine in 1992. I started to see what was happening to the old machines that were often stored in barns, attics and garages collecting dust and falling apart due to disrepair. I started Pachinko Restorations in 2009 to help people get their machines back up and working again. In 2013 I acquired Vintage Pachinko LLC with their inventory of parts and machines, Pachinko Restorations has one of the largest collection of vintage pachinko parts and machines.

Here at Pachinko Restorations, we buy, sell, trade, repair and restore vintage pachinko machines. Striving to do our best to fabricate parts to replace broken and missing components on these machines, to get them back to their original working condition, so your kids can have as much fun playing as you did.

Playing the Bier Haus Slot

There is no getting away from the beer in this game, with symbols depicting ‘Steins’ (large glasses) of beer, the bar sign, barmaids holding more beer and a caricature German guy with a huge moustache holding a beer of his own. There is a Bavarian ‘fairy tale’ castle too, and some red leaves with an acorn — which signify October, the time when the famous beer festival takes place.

There are 40 win lines, and you can bet from just 1c per line up to $1 — making the spin range 40c through to $40. With many of the symbols stacked on the reels, you will often get multiple wins at the same time. The biggest standard prize comes from the cheerful German guy; this is worth 500 coins for 5 on a line. The castle comes next, worth 150 coins for 5, with the Bier sign worth 125. My experience was of plenty of smaller wins, coming from the acorns, accordion and the playing card suits — the bigger wins come from the bonus games.

The symbol you’ll want to see a lot of is the delicious looking stein of beer. This is the wild symbol and will substitute for any of the other regular symbols to make winning combinations. With many of the symbols stacked in this game (including the steins of beer), you will have occasions where you hit 5+ win lines at the same time.
