NewGin Co. Ltd. (株式会社ニューギン) is a privately owned Japanese manufacturer of pachinko and pachislot machines incorporated in May 1968 in Nagoya, Japan. The company slogan is "Serious Play" (あそびにマジメ).
History
The company was founded in October 1949 as Marushin Bussan, then was reorganized into Marushin Bussan KK (丸新工業株式会社) in 1958. In May 1968, the company was again reorganized and incorporated under the current "NewGin" name.[2]
The company only manufactured its machines for existing pachinko parlors until August 1986, when it opened its first company-owned parlor in Fukuoka. Since then, NewGin has opened many of its own pachinko and pachislot locations throughout Japan.[2] In July 1988, NewGin completed its headquarters building in Nagoya, then established the subsidiary Aikoh in June 1990. A new manufacturing facility was completed in November 1991 in Kuwana, Mie Prefecture, and in 1995, the subsidiary Shinsei was established and a new Shinsei manufacturing plant was opened in Nannō.[2]
