I'll never understand slot machines. Not only because it doesn't look line any fun, but you have no way of knowing whether or not the machine is rigged (I know that it's probably not, but the doubt would nag at me the entire time)
Those cutscenes look fucking CLEAN though.
Amazing how much care Konami put into this machine, seems like they wanted to maximize the middle finger to Kojima

Middle finger the whole series and brand image.
Oh and daily reminder, Konami is sitting one of the best open world engines ever made now and refuses to license it out, instead they use it to make shitty FLV renders.

On YouTube there are various uploads of pachislot camrips that are then dubbed with English audio from the original game and they look [I]so good[/I] it's ridiculous
Some of these scenes make it seem like they started it as a remaster of the game then decided repurpose all the assets to make that monstrosity instead.

At least in America, slot machines are massively regulated and routinely inspected. A casino caught rigging their machines would get fucked six ways to sunday.

Well, the thing with pachinko and pachislot machines in Japan is that they're only legal due to skirting the law, they don't pay out actual money, you trade the tokens or balls in at the end in for "prizes" which you then take into a nearby trading store that you then give the "prize" to and they'll give you back cash. This is the way they get around Japans gambling bans.
I'm fairly sure this means the regulations aren't really there.
Somewhere, Hideo Kojima is weeping.

Couldn't you hypothetically fuck them skirting by the law by banning sale of arcade prizes to trading stores?

Probably, but I [b]think[/b] that the reason why they don't is they don't really care enough.

I think they're taking the opposite approach last I heard, fucking them by legalising and regulating actual gambling.

Konami is one of the biggest gambling machine makers in the world, if I remember right a good third of machines in las vegas are konami machines.
Jeeez it's like they're puppeteering a fucking corpse... :disappoint:
I really hope someone, somehow manages to rip all the game assets from that machine and releases them to the public domain.
Because fuck you Konami for making it look so good and bastardizing it into a fucking slot machine.

i doubt there are any assets at all to be found inside this machine.
Only prerendered video files.
The original assets have probably been sealed away in the center of the earth by Konami.

Or, knowing how Konami treated the original source code of Silent Hill 2 and 3, they've all been deleted.

Or an unfinished source code is being kept in reserve, only Snake's eyepatch texture is replaced with teeth.
So you do actually win coins from this? It's just a regular slot machine but you have to keep winning to see cutscenes
