TOKYO, JAPAN - 1997/10/01: A player manipulates a pachinko machine at the Maruhan Pachinko Tower in Tokyo's fashionable Shibuya district. Over 500 machines service over 5,000 players daily. Converting the pachinko balls directly to cash on the pachinko premises would constitute gambling and would be illegal under Japanese law. Thus, the balls are exchanged for various goods or tokens. Selected goods and the tokens can then be swapped to cash at a keihin kokanjo shop conveniently located near the parlor. (Photo by Gerhard Joren/LightRocket via Getty Images)
