Season 2 of Pachinko is expected to premiere on Apple TV+ later this year.
@AnnaAnthro@jodmentum it's ironic that #Pachinko is banned in South Korea

A long, detailed thread about arcades, pinball, and pachinko machines in (mostly) Japanese Showa-era (1930s-1970s) movies, with accompanying blog posts https://mastodon.social/@cpi/110198558398621807
thread of my #arcadeexploration posts, starting with my latest:
exploring the arcade in the 1978 movie 鬼畜 / Kichiku (The Demon)
each blog entry features an arcade in a movie (mostly from #japan) and tries to identify all of the machines.
This is an exceptionally difficult task because:
This was an incredible amount of work. When someone says "prewar game", we have to specify WW2, WW1, Russo-Japanese war... because some of these machines go into the 19th century.
