Dont forget, only the government's gambling is okay and justifiable.  If it's not a scratch off then you are a criminal.

Which is why it's good to have them emulated in MAME, even if they are damn awful.

Sadly a lot of them are FAR better protected than most arcade games out there (only a handful of arcade games need decapping, the vast majority of 90s gambling games will do if they're to be emulated)
