Irem's PachiPro Fuunroku - Pachinko with a story??

Pachinko, the most boring "game" this side of Blitzball, but still the japanese are crazy about it. Pachinko videogames have attempted some sort of story-like framing devices ever since 1987, but they didn't go very far. That was until Irem helped by Kazuma Kujo decided on their 8th game in the Sanyo Pachinko Paradise series to put in a true story mode. In 2007 that story mode went full 3D, which I have played. Appreciate my sacrifice please, these games still require you to play Pachinko! Credit to Okai Salon and his great article and for the information on Pachinko games:
