You have to play it a lot before you start getting enough big wins to get some of the cool prizes. What you should ask yourself is 'is it worth investing my time into,' cause time is the biggest resource it consumes. It took me about 2 hours of playing the slot machine to finally get enough big wins to get a Team Rocket Uniform. So if you think the prizes are worth getting go for it. Here’s the quickest way to win the Pokemon Red and Blue Celadon City Game Corner slot machine: Enter the Celadon Game Corner. Play the slot machine in the bottom right-hand corner 5 times. If you didn’t win at least twice, leave.

The Game Corner - Voltorb Flip

Outside of Japan, the Game Corner got completely replaced. All slot machines were removed but replaced with a special game, the Voltorb Flip. In addition to this, the coin exchange has been removed so you can no longer purchase the coins in order to play the game. This game is a low risk game and works in a similar means to MineSweeper & Picross

You get given a small game board with 25 tiles in it. Your task here is to get multipliers. Intermixed with the multipliers are Voltorb tiles. However, on the sides, you get told how many Voltorbs are within the row and columns. As you get each multiplier on each board, you progress up a level. Each level has further Voltorb cards and less, but more powerful multipliers are placed. You have the ability to put notes of what you think the tile may be, so you have a reminder of what a Voltorb card may be. This makes it easier for you to get the coins you need to get the prizes.

The Game Corner - Slots

The Game Corner has bween present in all games since the inception of Pokémon. In Heart Gold & Soul Silver however, it is found in two locations; Goldenrod City & Celadon City. The game however, remains the same and to use it, you need the Coin Case and some coins. You can buy some to get you started from the counter; 50 Coins for 1000 and 500 for 10000.

Like previous games, you place one coin into the machine and you start running slots. Your task is to get three icons in a row at any point, diagonally or horizontally. There are six different icons for you to get and the price is dependant on them. The prizes are as follows:


IconsPrizeIconsPrize
100 Coins100 Coins
15 Coins10 Coins
2 Coins Per ApricornFree Slots

However, the values may differ depending on the Machine. Specifically one in Goldenrod next to the gentleman in the middle on Sunday Mornings and one next to the large man in Celadon Game Corner

Backgrounds

The slots are based upon Smeargle's drawing of the icons and its mood. These moods have an affect on the Game Corner and on the icons you can match. They change based on how much you win or lose against the Slot Machine

Green Background: Everything is normal and it is the first background you will see
Red Background: Easy to obtain PokéBall and 7 match-ups
Blue Background: Easy to obtain Pikachu and Marill match-ups

Bonus Mode

The Bonus mode is activated when you obtain 3 7s or 3 Pokéballs. In this Bonus Mode, you have to match up pictures of the starter Pokémon of Johto (Chikorita, Cyndaquil & Totodile). You have 8 tries to do this, and you get told the Pokémon you are to get. Usually, the machine will give you one or two of the slides and you have to stop the other one with perfect timing to win the prize

The prizes begin at 20 coins and progessively go up as you succeed more. The speed of the slots also increase to create a further challenge.

Prizes

Both of the Game Corners have a Prize area where you can exchange your coins for a variety of prizes varying from TMs to Hold Items and even Pokémon

Slot machines have been around for more than a century. They were invented by a Bavarian ex-pat in the late 19th century, they were briefly used as vending machines in the bars of North America, paying out food instead of coins, then quickly became the staple of the gambling industry. Since then, they have spread everywhere, from social networks to video games.

How Do I Play In The Game Corner? - Pokemon Platinum ...


Remembering The Celadon Game Corner Slot Machine Trick ...

Slot machines are very popular all over the world - but not in Japan. Access to gambling in all forms except for betting on public sports, lotteries, and pachinko. There are no casinos in the country - people often play Mahjong for money, and there are a few popular rock-paper-scissors apps that many people play for money. Thus, it may come as a surprise that the games featured slot machine minigames up to Generation IV.


Slots in Pokémon

The slot machines in Pokémon games are a lot like their online counterparts at the JackpotCity online casino. The slots in Generation I games and Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen are a lot like the classic three-reel slot machines so popular at JackpotCity - even the symbols on the reels are inspired by the real thing. Plus, they borrow a popular feature from their real-life counterparts: by betting more coins per spin, you activate more pay lines, and with it, you boost the potential payouts of the game.
In Generation II games, the slot machines became simpler, with fewer symbols on the reels. But they come with an extra perk: Chansey. From time to time, the Pokémon thought to bring good luck and happiness to its owner, will appear to spin the reels with an egg bomb. In Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald, the slot machine becomes more complex and similar to the real thing by adding a feature so popular at real-life gambling venues and online outlets like the JackpotCity: bonus games. The bonus games offer players bigger payouts and the chance to try the Reel Time (a bit like jackpots) with a potential to win big.And in the fourth-generation games, the slot machine once again becomes simpler, with a smaller jackpot but it gets a new bonus game. Triggered by winning the jackpot, the bonus game involves trying to keep a Pokémon happy by stopping the reels that it points at in the correct order.

Controversy

Playing slot machines in real life is permitted in most countries - even those that ban real-money gambling have carveouts for social games like MyVegas or Slotomania. Not in South Korea, apparently. Here, even the playful minigames inside Pokémon games have triggered the authorities.With gambling illegal in Korea, the slot machines in Pokémon Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum had to go. The problem is that without them, players couldn’t obtain TM64. As a workaround, the Game Corner receptionist will occasionally reward players with the item.
