The main markets for online gambling has always been in the US and Europe. Not until the US congress took a firm stance against online gambling, banning credit-card companies from taking payments from such sites. Many online casinos closed down and pulled out of the country. Despite the legalities concerning the US, online gambling still remains to be the most lucrative market in the internet. Taking full advantage of the present technologies the web has to offer, industry analysts predict the online gambling market will almost double to an estimated $22.4 billion by 2010, even with the US market under deep waters.
It’s no surprise that when US online gambling firms started to crumble, companies that withstood the tempest crossed continents and turned to Asia. Even in conventional casinos, Macao, through the help of Chinese gamblers, overtook Las Vegas’ position as the top gambling destination. Although China has some provisions that ban casinos, online betting or online gambling remains in the grey area since it never expressly said that these are forbidden. According to a review, China will be allowing online gambling in Macao and there are also other countries willing to host online gambling if China decides not to. The Philippines is already giving licenses for online gambling companies in Manila and in special economic zones in Cagayan.
Now, many companies are developing Asiatic variations of their online games. Cyber Arts, a leading online gambling software developer, produced an Asian variation of the online poker, called Chinese Poker. It’s basically a 13-card game developed for the Asian Market. For online casinos testing the oriental marketplace, Chinese poker is an online gambling software that’s great at acquiring more customers. There is a large element of luck that gives beginners a fair chance of winning the first few bets however when luck runs out that’s when strategic playing counts. Many companies are developing the online version of the traditional Japanese gambling game called, Pachinko. This game is a $ 250 billion industry – bigger than all the casinos in the world combined and now they are trying to get the same figure online.
In large part there is a big untapped market in Asia however not for long. Many online gambling operators already saw this opportunity and are currently under their drawing boards developing online gambling games that will be a potential hit in the Far East. As a Chinese proverb said, “If you must play, decide upon three things at the start: The rules of the game, the stakes and the quitting time.”

For those of you who have yet to experience the fun of it, pachinko is a Japanese-style pinball machine that is vertically-oriented, as opposed to the pinball field, which is slanted 45 degrees. Will it make it big in the US? Well, the chances are pretty good. As you just mentioned, it is a big industry in Japan, and most pachinko parlors have slot machines with anime characters printed on them as well. I understand Americans in general enjoy both slot machines and anime, and if that's the case, there's a good chance that someday it'll be a smash hit.

Google is your friend.
There's no shortage of places in California that will happily sell you a pachinko machine. (I have no idea what you mean by "pachinko pinball," those are two different types of amusement machines.) Both pachinko and pinball have been legal in California for DECADES.
As for prizes…
Cops aren't going to break down your door for gambling with friends. They've got more important crimes to pursue.

It depends on how much it's been used so far. They say it's usually 1-3 years. Or they do not use it so long because they need to replace it with the latest ones.

>What do you need to know before getting in?
You don't need any skill to work part-time at pachinko parlor. In fact, other part-time jobs do not require skills, either.
If you know and like pachinko, it's plus.
>What will they teach you?
How to maintain pachinko machines
How to clean the hall
How to treat customers
But basically the job is very easy and simple, like carrying boxes. That's what part-time workers do.
>Parlors are always recruiting but is it as hard as it seems to get the job?
I don't think it's difficult. But as we are in recession now, it could be difficult in some cases.
In your cases, you need visa and Japanese skill. But you can't get working visa with part-time job. You have to have student visa or something else so that you have right to work.

There may be some in Los Angeles. There's the Commerce Casino outside LA which is mostly an Asian clientele, so that may be a possibility. And there's a place called Pachinko Palace in Northridge, CA, but they don't have a website.
There's also a place called Pacific Rim Pachinko in Anaheim, CA, but again, they don't have a website.

Basically, pachinko parlors are everywhere in Japan or in Tokyo.
You won't have any difficulty in finding one in Tokyo.
If there is any gaijin friendly one, I can't find if one parlor is gaijin friendly unless I actually visit every parlor.
