Honey, let's go to the Casino.
Date of Review: May 8, 2001
The Bottom Line: For fun casino fun without losing your money, this game is for you.
With Golden Nugget you can gamble away the computer's money and never feel guilty about losing like you can at a real casino. I've been to Tunica, Mississippi and therefore have been to real casino's. I've won and I've lost there. But, on the video game I never have this guilty feeling when I lose money. Just a feeling of getting to hear the sounds, play the games is enough for me.
There are a lot of different games on Golden Nugget. You can play~
Slot machines
Video Poker
BlackJack
A Variety of Poker games
Roulette
and 1 other that I can't remember the name of.
You start out with $1000 but you can reset anytime you run out of money. Which is cool with me. There are different levels of betting also. With the table games you can bet anywhere from $25 all the way to thousands of dollars. The slot machines are from 25 cents to $100.
I read another review that said if you bought this game then you have no life. I disagree. When we bought this game, my son was an infant, therefore we stayed home a lot instead of going out all the time. So for us this was a great investment. It's a game my husband and I both enjoy and can play together.
There are many worse games out there for the N64, but we try to go for the less violent ones. Therefore this game is great in our house. Both of our kids like to play the slot machines and I feel that it is harmless for them to hit the button and see the reels go. When they hit they cheer. For me I'd rather hear this than, "I killed you."
Thanks for reading and sharing in my love of Golden Nugget.
