Sanyo Pachinko Paradise 8: Shin Umi Monogatari (2003)

Pachinko Paradise 8 is one of the many titles in Irem's long-running pachinko simulation series. It features a faithful 3D recreation of the CR Shin Umi Monogatari M27 pachinko machine made by Sanyo Bussan. There are two modes available: Tsūjō (Normal) mode allows the player to modify a wide range of settings for each machine, while Jissen (Battle) mode challenges the player to win as many balls as possible on the default settings with a limited starting pool and time limit. There is also a View mode where the various animations that play on the in-game display can be freely viewed.
