I think that if they are going to argue that they want to get rid of the slots due to kids wanting to gamble, that there are MANY other things in the games that should be gotten rid of as well. Honestly, why change it at this point? Many of us played thegame corner when the original came out, and I can attest that none of my friends nor I for that matter, gamble at all.
But, really, I like Voltorb flip...I like that it's not all luck based, and once you figure out the math it's easy and addicting! Takes about an hour to get 10,000 coins...and you never lose any. Not too shabby!
