...wait, are you telling me Konami shuffling the touch input for e-Amusement PINs[0] was a good idea!?

[0] Okay... deep breath

Konami is a pachinko manufacturer with a side hustle making rhythm games for Japanese arcades. They have an online service that all their games connect to called e-Amusement. You can log into it using an e-Amusement Pass card, and your card is locked to a PIN number you have to set up when you first use it. Cabinets with touchscreens give you a touch keypad, except all the digits are shuffled around, which is a total pain in the ass and you have to do this for every credit.
