From the original Duomat restoration page:
The post "exploring the Japanese arcades in this tweet..." has been mostly redone, adding a few machines and more clarification. There are still 3 pinball-style machines I have not been able to identify.
I have redone the post "exploring the arcade in ずべ公番長 ざんげの値打もない (1971) aka Delinquent Girl Boss: Worthless to Confess aka Delinquent Girl Boss: Unworthy of Penance" with all my knew research. All machines seen are identified, except for what I assume is a generic arcade pachinko cabinet.
