Smart Ball, pajatso, payazzo, and mechanical ball games...
(I want to preface this by saying I am actively looking for Smart Ball, Pajatso, Payazzo machines. Please let me know if you stumble on one of these...)
Semicolin recently introduced me to the existence of Smart Ball, an older Japanese arcade game that is kind of like Pachinko in slow motion.
I just love games like this and would definitely want to buy one or two if ever possible.
I have also been super in to pajatso / payazzo since trying them at Fun Spot a few years back.
What I love about these machines, and 70s pachinko, is how much is done purely mechanically. I love the non-electric bagatelles. and for me these are even better.
While the game does have a single motor, the 1937 Rockola World Series is a mechanical marvel in how it tracks strikes, outs, scores, etc.
highly recommended watching:
I'll never own one of those but a gal can dream.
I still would like a fancy bagatelle at some point.
Anyways, I've mentioned this before I think, but the reason this isn't just a WTB post is because I wanted to re-share the magic of Jollyball.
Jollyball now resides at the Chicago Museum of Science and Industry, but it was commissioned for Expo 86 in Vancouver, where I discovered it as a young kid.
https://www.msichicago.org/explore/what ... olly-ball/
watch a full run:
I pretty much credit Jollyball entirely for instilling my loves of mechanical marble machines.
It was made by Charles Morgan who has turned the medium into an artform. http://morgan-art.ch/atelier_1
Just wanted to share this all, and put out any feelers for a Japanese Smart Ball, or Finnish Payazzo, for some day...
and hey if you're ever bored, DIY Marble Run youtube is a rabbit hole worth wasting a few evenings on

Re: Smart Ball, pajatso, payazzo, and mechanical ball games...
I just spent $3K on airline tickets *just* to play smart ball. That's how hardcore I am. That said, I'll ask the owner of the parlour if she has any to sell, and I'll get a quote from Japan Post.
Pretty sure the right way to ask is:

"Sumimasen, daburumayonēzu de kechappu no sakana o katte mitai to omoimasu."

Re: Smart Ball, pajatso, payazzo, and mechanical ball games...
Ha, fascinating machines!
Re payazzo / pajatso... I had spotted one of these in a crazy Finnish film called "Jackpot 2", which I wrote about in my blog post here: http://pinballspotting.blogspot.com/201 ... -1982.html
At the time, my quick research had only led me to the name "drop case machine" [ see http://www.melright.com/slots/dropcase.htm ]. Now I can update my post with the proper name!
BTW, excerpts of the crazy film, including the guy playing the payazzo can be seen in the pinball supercut at the North Star, which I've been adding stuff to the last couple of months.

Re: Smart Ball, pajatso, payazzo, and mechanical ball games...
Cool! Yeah I don't think they spread too far outside of Finland, and they are def some of my favourite "drop case machines". I guess another example in that category would be the skill roll machines. Much more common in Japan, but Bally had some too http://www.pinrepair.com/arcade/bskillr.htmJamesSchid wrote:Ha, fascinating machines!

Cool parlor! Nice to see a row of arrange a ball games in their natural environment.
Crazy to think all these games. Pinball, bingo, pachinko, smart ball are all descendant of bagatelle.

Re: Smart Ball, pajatso, payazzo, and mechanical ball games...
Cool! I was addicted to those "Payazzo" (didn't know that name!) games whenever I was in Norway as a kid.
Would love to get one of those if they are available anywhere!
I have an Addams Family Values coin drop game which always reminded me of those machines but it's not as much fun to play.

Re: Smart Ball, pajatso, payazzo, and mechanical ball games...
They were most popular in Finland, though there were models from Norway and Germany and a few other countries. They are apparently rather obscure to get as in the aughts the government of Finland destroyed a lot of them. They were, since the 1930s, controlled by the government as sanctioned gambling to benefit a national charity.shinynick wrote:Cool!

If you want to play them again, Fun Spot has a few.

Re: Smart Ball, pajatso, payazzo, and mechanical ball games...
more on unique arcade pieces, here is an incredible collection of photos from British Arcades, primarily the first half of the 20th century.
The history of this hobby is the history of gambling laws, and the need to innovate around them.
In America, with federal gambling crackdowns and many many hyper-local gambling laws to attempt to evade, gaming flourished in styles and gameplay. Pinball took off as the "games of skill" flourished legally.
Judging by the photos, it seems Britain did not have the same gambling restrictions, and so if something's making you tonnes of money, why change it? We see plenty of gambling and skill-gambling devices in these arcades, almost no pins!

They do come up rather frequently so I guess they were indeed popular.
If you want a pristine Kicker/Catcher game, these are available:
