The Coin Pusher


We don't really see these in this part of the world. I have only seen them on cruise ships :unsure:

But what I didn't know is that some of them ( probably only in casinos ) are loaded like this !!!!

There's something intriguing about seeing yourself how close the win can be, and how everything is hanging by a "thread".

So what say you? Does this belong to a casino or in an arcade next to pinball machine :LOL:

I haven't seen one of those in ages, and it was in an arcade so that is what I'm going with. :)

Those are always found in arcades & have never seen them in casinos. Those need a bit of time & a lot of investment to itm. Won't appeal to the gambler mindset of small investment & instant cash out paradigm. Its casino counterpart is the slots.

From my country's legislation point of view this would be clear. You put money in and you may get money out. That is gambling and falls under the same umbrella like any monetary gaming around here. To me it would feel weird to see this in some video game arcade.

I think it could go either way, except that casinos look for a long-term edge which cannot probably be guaranteed by the coin pusher.
I've seen them in bars in Spain; they're a lot of fun.

I don't think these things would exist if they had even a chance of -EV. According to the Youtube channel some of these have some ridiculous high buy-ins.

To be honest and in my personal opinion this is neither an arcade nor a Casino game. But if I would have to decide i would decide for casino game.

The only difference between every casino game is the RTP and if your having fun plsying it.At the end you will lose.
