    ok, just to let people know, I looked at a little guild on how to play Voltorb flip and it looks like a fun game. but the slots are still classic and should not have been changed.

    Yes! Roulettes! We should have had the roulettes and the Voltorb Flip! The slots are so stressful! I wish I had the English version...

    I had to get used to using the Voltorb Flip (took me nearly 3 hours to get 2100 coins for Dratini) but I still perfer the Slot Machines.

    I tried the Voltorb flip last night, and it took me 3 hours just to get 100 coins, I like the Slots better

    BLAST OFF!!!!

    I hate to admit it, but the Voltorb crap is way TOO HARD, really, you don't get much coins, you get a Voltorb 75% of the time, and it's not fun at all, and now it's impossible to get Porygon without trading form D/P/Pt, and I don't have any friends who play Pokemon or a second DS, this is why I prefer the slots, they're easier to play, you get 5x more coins, and they are fun, but NOOOOOOO, Reggie Fils aime apparently hates the slot machines just as much as he hates Mother 3, and thanks to big mouthed Europe, who told Nintendo of America to screw up our game corner becauwse Europe has their damned anti-gambling laws, the game corner is RUINED FOREVER!!!!!!

    This is why Europe should not stick their nose up Americas gambling laws asses, cause it screws our game corner up, and makes it difficult to get our beloved origami bird Porygon

    I liked the old slot machines...especially in the older games, I became an expert at pulling the 777. With this new Voltorb flip thing, its too much like Minesweeper to me. And I can't ever seem to be able to beat it. Which makes me sad since I wanted to get some of the Prize Pokemon from them.

    Voltorb flip is getting less luck-based as I learn how to play it o3o Not that it's really changing, I'm just getting smarter about how I play it xD I always mark off what could be 1/voltorb so don't even bother flipping those open, so any rows that add up to 5 (points + voltorbs) can be eliminated immediately, along with any 0 voltorb rows. Then I can go from there.

    Truth be told I am surprised how much I am enjoying the flip. I was not happy when they took out the slots at first for nostalgia purposes. And was even less happy when I figured out that I could not buy coins anymore. But once I got the hang of the game the more I enjoyed it. Some logic a bit of math and luck and in a few hours after getting the hang of it I had the Dratini I had come in for. I am horrible at the slots so I do prefer this in someways though I wish they had kept the slots.

    The whole "True fans will only like slots" what a joke that is, Slots were the most boring thing there was, it took nothing but mindlessly clicking buttons.
    I personally love the Voltorb Flip, Currently the highest I've gotten is lvl 5 Flip.
    The Voltorb flip can get you tons of coins if your good, I got like 1000 coins in a matter of 15minutes.

    I hate Voltorb Flip. With the slot machines, I had expectations of failure so I never felt bad when I failed to roll anything good. Now with Voltorb Flip, whenever I feel as if I've calculated the board correctly, I flip a Voltorb and rage. Voltorb Flip does allow you to accumulate coins more quickly, I must admit, but the rage factor is enough for me to choose slot machines over Voltorb Flip.

    Slot machines. I hate Voltorb flip. Pokemon is about fun, not doing math just to earn coins for the prizes you want.
    Although slot machines weren't that fun, at least you didn't have to think.

    I was introduced to slot machines in gsc and I had my own 'lucky' machine that I was looking forward to using this time around. Alas, it was not there and I had to play Voltorb flip instead. Which is fine, but not memorable at all. ;o;

    Both are plain annoying and I rarely even play them, but the Voltorb Flip is more entertaining than the slots ... and the EU Platinum Game Corner ("A Game Machine ! What are you even doing in a Game Corner ? You're below 18, you know ...") .

    The ugly future of the Game Corner still needs to unfold ... hope we don't get Chikorita Tickle or Arceus Shooter !

    Defently the Slot macine over the Voltorb Flip who wants to do maths in a Pokemon Game? Thought so... At least in the other Games you could buy coins aswell made the who case easier without having to playing stupid mini games just to get an Item/Pokemon you wished..
