Today

SNK's Miki (Hyogo prefecture) factory near Kobe in 2015, probably pushing-out pachislots nowadays.

SNK's Kobe plant and Esaka office seem to be still active mid-2015.

Video showing that the Esaka office is filled with doors, stairs and Coke vending machines: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2EP6s7mDXdU

Satellite view of the same plant in 2013, new buildings were built around since then.
