It's CES and you know that I will be looking at everything arcade related. A1Up has decided to release a casino "arcade". Wheels of fortune slots...poker, blackjack, bingo (LOL!) and a bunch of other games I never play! Oh, solitaire. My dad loves that game lol I'm torn if I like it or not. But can see it doing REALLY good in retirement homes. I could imagine some grandpas and grandmas having a blast with this and lining up to play. Always loved video black jack in Vegas, so I could see myself playing this. But there's no coins....there's no lever for the slots...! It's a touch screen, but a 10" touch screen. So basically, it's a small iPad around a lot of MDF with some cheap graphics on it. I think it's cool if someone has a nice game room and has older people coming over. I can see it being used during family parties during the holidays or Easter. Grandma sitting on her stool playing the shit out of Wheels of Fortune....or a tenth game of bingo where she just yells bingo and wins nothing? LOL! Personally, I have a pachislot. A bugs bunny one. I love it! It has real (well, real pachislot coins) coins. There's no lever, but there are some cool animations, it spins, and it has a bunch of lights. It's a much much older machine though that I got for super cheap. But there's just something fun to put coins in the machine and hear it fall when you win. I'm curious how much they will sell that one...
