Hmmm.

Sega is a subsidiary of Sega Sammy Holdings. Sammy is a major developer of pachinko machines.

I wonder where this is going?

go to your local pachinko parlor
buy a lot of pachinko balls
see birds flying according to the speed of the balls you input in the machine

I mean, I don't play pachinko, but I think it'd be more fun if the balls had the birds on them and you knocked some piggies down as you bounced down the machine or at least knocked them down at the bottom depending on where you landed.

the balls are just boring gray ones since the same ones fit to multiple machines, sadly
