Game machines replace the slot machines in the European versions of {{game|Platinum}}, including the UK release, as a result of changes in the classification standards at {{wp|Pan European Game Information|PEGI}}<ref>[http://www.gamesradar.com/european-pokemon-platinums-missing-game-corner-explained/ European Pokemon Platinum's missing Game Corner explained | GamesRadar]</ref>. In addition, European versions of {{game|Platinum}} removed all references to slot machine gameplay. Since the slot machines are integral to obtaining [[TM64]] in all other versions, European versions of Platinum will occasionally reward the player with the TM while talking to the Game Corner's receptionist. | Game machines replace the slot machines in the European versions of {{game|Platinum}}, including the UK release, as a result of changes in the classification standards at {{wp|Pan European Game Information|PEGI}}<ref>[http://www.gamesradar.com/european-pokemon-platinums-missing-game-corner-explained/ European Pokemon Platinum's missing Game Corner explained | GamesRadar]</ref>.

Game machines allow players to interact with the machine and find anywhere from 5 to 20 [[coin]]s in a machine each day. This is the only extent of the interactivity with game machines; there isn't really a game to be played. However, NPCs seem to be able to play the game, as [[Looker]] protests when the machine he is at displays "Game over". | Game machines allow players to interact with the machine and find anywhere from 5 to 20 [[coin]]s in a machine each day.
