Big Strike Bowling is a German machine from 1967, made by NSM.  Before arriving in Japan, it was popular in Germany and the UK.  Big Strike Bowling shows up in the 1969 machine directory.  This would be a direct import:

In 1971 Taito began selling these machines, with custom stands.  While the official Taito year for this machine is 1971, you might see the imported model in earlier Japanese arcades.

This is one of many European machines that would be popular in Japan, though one of the few that isn't a medal game.

The only visible difference on the Taito machines, as far as I can see,  is the painted wooden stand.  The picture at the top of this post only has the bowling ball and pins.  Most versions seem to also have the Taito logo on the stand:

I assume the Taito machines would also have a different coin mechanism.

The machine is rather simple, with the electricity only being used to power the lights and release the ball.  The goal is to get the ball in to slot, and mechanically knocking down the pins.  Knocking down all pins would award a free game.
