What's that, you say? It looks like an ordinary vending machine to me, you're thinking? Well you are mistaken. This vending machine is awesome!
You may have already guessed by now, but it's an electronic display vending machine! Yep! Touch screen and everything. Cool graphics, nice little ads that play, it's totally Tokyo.
Here we just bought a drink and it lets you play a game of slots! Didn't win though...
So this vending machine is the same as all the others in terms of product. No weird noodles or snacks in this one, but I thought it was pretty cool.
We found this bugger in Tokyo Station. I haven't seen any others before or since, so I guess it's still kind of rare. It's funny because in my culture class, a group made a presentation on this particular vending machine. They said that it has a camera and is supposed to figure out if you're male or female, and then make drink recommendations to you. This machine did no such thing...or I don't think it did.
Vending machine of the future!
Thats pretty cool.. but they have something similar in the states. Went to a 5 guys burger place last time I was there and they had a touch screen drink dispenser with FIVE types of coke! + other cool drinks too...
