That's a Japanese Pachislo machine. AWP - amusement with prizes. I don't know much about them, other than that they're "skill stop" and cheap. https://www.ebay.com/b/Japanese-Slot-Machine/14283/bn_7023221754

They are not very popular in the slot community. They are also largely misunderstood.
They are not, as some call them “Japanese slot machines “ they are parlor games. Much like our arcades have ticket redemption, in Japan you purchase tokens and when done playing you buy things in the parlor shop with any that you win, even grocery items in some. That is why Pachi doesn’t use coins even though many people convert them to use quarters. When they get going they pay huge bonuses and have music and flashing light replay sessions. They can be fun for kids. They originate from Pachinko machines which used balls (my profile pics show mine).
There are some interesting videos on YouTube of the parlors. Very noisy and smoky.
The machines are relatively robust, I would go directly to the backup battery and start there. I think there is a general reset button but I have never had to use it on mine.
I would be interested in hearing if you get it started and what you find that failed.

Actually they are a Japanese slot machine the actual translation is:
Pachislo (pronounced: PATCH-ee-slow) is a portmanteau of the words “slots” and “Pachinko.”

Gotcha, good etymology. I never broke it down, I just read about the conceptual difference. I believe that refers to the mechanical function of the machine. With a slot machine, as we know them, you put currency in and based on pure odds you get currency out…or not. Its gambling. From what I understand gambling was not legal in Japan when pachinko was invented (or they wanted something like gambling in a non-casino environment)so they created a token system. You play a game of skill and redeem your winnings. It is a slot device but not a monetary gambling device.

There is a tech forum online that supports those games.

Let them that don't want any, have memories of not getting any.

Paschilos are Japanese, they use "Metals" which is the Japanese translation of token.
Pachinko uses metal balls (also metals).

You can have games of Chance in Japan but they cannot have a reward that is more than 3x the bet.
So with a Paschilo if you put in 5 coins the max win is 15 coins.

The way they get around this is a "fever" round where if you hit this, they pay 15 coins, then automatically take 5 coins with a guaranteed win and cycle through that as many as 30 times. Paying out 300 metals (as your actually winning 10 coins per).

As an Arcade for entertainment purposes only (nudge nudge wink wink) - Metals cannot be converted back to cash - so you go to the redemption counter and get your giant stuffed bear (blender, toaster, etc) - which is in a large plastic bag with a bar coded security tag on it. When you leave the "arcade" you will find another close by store - called the prize redemption center. Which is theoretically unrelated to the "arcade" - and surprise ....  they are interested in purchasing your giant stuffed bear for cash. This is provided you have not in anyway opened the bag or removed the security tag. If you were to buy 10 metals for 100yen (roughly $1 usd), and you somehow turn these into a 1000yen, which gets you a stuffed bear, the prize redemption center would give you something like 600Yen for your prize. Of course their are all sorts of player clubs where if you had gold status you might get 700yen for your status rather than 600. There are restaurants in the arcade that you purchase your ramen by using Metals. Same bowl of soup is 700Yen or 1100metals.

Pachitalk is a better place for you to get assistance (and manuals) on your machine.
