I actually like the voltorb flip, but hate it at the same time. Once you know the right strategy, you can get to level 3 at least, and get about 100 points per go (a much higher rate than the game slots in my experience), and the catch is you don't have to pay pokedollars to play. So once you get good, you can get those expensive prizes pretty fast at NO cost. However, if you're unlucky, you're pretty much screwed, because this game requires a certain degree of luck. Skill can only take you so far, but at least it takes you farther with this game than the slots or any other game corner game I've experienced. Level 6 is as far as I got.
For those who are having trouble with the game corner, hopefully part 29 of my video walkthrough helps you out on a couple of the strategies. I only cover level one though. The higher levels are going to require more thinking than I've displayed.

I don't see why they had to take out the ability to buy coins. Meh.
I don't see why they did that either. If there was one reason, maybe it would be to encourage people to actually play the games instead of buy their way to the prizes. However, if people want to burn a hole in their pocket to get the prizes for the sake of convenience (because the games are very time consuming), I don't see why they should be denied that privilege.
Does anyone know if you can exchange coins in the kanto game corner? Because that would make more sense.
