Something I DON'T miss about Japan

While there were so many things I love/loved about living in Japan (and I actually have a sizeable chance of going back next year too), there's one thing in particular that drove me crazy every time it happened. To set the stage, it's dusk/evening, I'm out walking, probably got some music or a vid playing, and then I see this big building that's got tons of flashy signs and lights on it, there's tons of cars parked there, it's constantly advertised around the area, AND it says that it has games in there. So I'm expecting an arcade, so I go in...
And it's just rows and rows of pachinko, slot, and pachislot machines, with people sitting at their machines with their trays full of pachinko balls. So I immediately leave and head somewhere else. This has happened to me multiple times too, so I've grown to recognize "the signs" if somewhere is a pachinko parlor, usually the amount of flashy lights/signs they have, the name, and if it has something showing the price/value for each ball (like it'll say they have ¥1, ¥2, or ¥4 ones available). Thankfully there are actual arcades out and about, I remember finding 3/4 around where I stayed.
