As far as I know it hasn't been dumped. Real-money gambling machines are typically required by law to be destroyed when they're taken out of service, so getting dumps is quite a bit harder than for regular games. I'm hoping someone manages to dump the Castlevania pachi-slot games (there are now 3 of them, that link is the trailer for the second one), but I'm not holding my breath either.
