baseball arrangeball

My friend semicolin was able to assist with the arrangeball light board and now the game is playing quite well.  You can read up on the rules in an earlier post, because right now I just want to show you how it plays with the lights all working!  I still do not know who made this game, as there are no company marks.

light board, back in and working great

In this older photo you can see the baseball diamond piece in the rear of the machine.  The person who sold it to me in Japan had sent some lights along to replace the burnt ones, but turns out THEY WEREN'T THE PROPER LIGHTS!

So an important notes:  get the proper light bulbs!

You might have noticed the green tape on the ashtray.  That is because it is extremely flimsy metal and has a crack that I will have to repair eventually.

There are still a few other things to attend to on this machine.  Look at this embarrassing photo from inside.  what's that mess?  Well there was no coin box, and someone installed a 120V transformer into the machine, so to avoid have coins fall across loose wires I improvised what I call a "coin diaper" :)

I will get a coin box made eventually, I swear!  Oh and also try and ignore that exposed thin yellow wire you see.  ;)

Let's take a look at some of the details:

1ゲームについて メダルは5枚以下です
"No more than 5 medals per game"
This means that it will not pay out more than 5 medals in a single round.

遊技方法

1) 投入口にメダルを入れると玉16個が出ます。

 

2) ヒットに入ると一コマ 

2塁穴に入るとニコマ

3塁穴に入ると三コマ

塁上のランプは進み本塁に達すると得点ランプが点数

を表示します。

3) アウト穴に入ると塁上のランプは消えてしまいます。 但し、戻り球の打直しは出来ます。

4) ホームラン穴に入るとホームラン賞として自動的にメダルが1枚出ます。 尚、 塁上のランプは1周します。 この場合、満塁でしたら得点は4点となります。

⑤ 1ゲーム終了後、精算ボタンを押すと1得点につき 1枚のメダルが出ます。 塁上に残ったランプは次のゲームに役だちます。

 

How to play

1) 16 balls will come out when you insert medals into the slot.

 

2) one base with a single hit

advance 2 bases with a double

advance 3 bases with a triple

When the lamps advance to home base the scoring lamp will advance

3) When you enter the "out" hole, the lit lamps on the base will disappear. However, the ball is returned to shoot again.

4) When you enter the home run hole, you will automatically get one medal as a home run prize. In addition, the ramp on the base makes one lap. In this case, if the bases are loaded, the score will be 4 points.

5) After finishing one game, press the checkout button and to get one medal per score. Lamps left on the base will be used in the next game..
