打球遊技機

Non-PRO Japanese to English Other Gaming/Video-games/E-sports Game Machines
This is a type of amusement machine manufactured by a pachinko maker. Is this a specific type of pachinko machine, or perhaps is it another word for a pinball machine?

For Kurt Thanks, I thought of this, too. I thought it might be a pinball machine since pinball is very close to pachinko, but this is certainly another possibility.

Batting Machine

Just a guess, but this sounds like one of those machines that throws balls for hitting with a bat.

I doubt that this is pinball. Pinball almost always universally referred to as ピンボール. I have a game of Pinball on my mobile phone, and it is launched from the menu item ピンボール.
