The Pokémon Company International: Difference between revisions

In {{game|Platinum}}, due to stricter classification standards at {{wp|Pan European Game Information|PEGI}} implemented in the period of the game's release<ref>[http://www.gamesradar.com/european-pokemon-platinums-missing-game-corner-explained/ European Pokemon Platinum's missing Game Corner explained | GamesRadar]</ref> (which required that any game deemed to "encourage or teach gambling" be classified '''18'''),<ref>[http://www.pegi.info/en/index/id/33/ PEGI Pan European Game Information - What do the labels mean?]</ref> the [[Veilstone Game Corner]]'s [[slot machine]]s were all replaced in the European localizations&mdash;including the UK release&mdash;with [[game machine]]s which randomly give out some [[Coin]]s daily if checked, but could not be played on. This extended into {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, which removed the slot machines altogether in all non-Japanese releases, replacing them with [[Voltorb Flip]] and disallowing the {{player}} from buying Coins.

Given the above situation, this could explain the absence of Game Corners in every [[Version|core series]] {{pkmn|games|Pokémon game}} released after Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver.
