Funny thing is, in most games I've played, gambling was taken out or altered. I thought this thread was going to be about the controversy behind the slots in Pokemon, or something like that.
But yeah, it's such a pain to get a ridiculous amount of coins just if you want to add Porygon to your Pokedex. He's not even that good to use in matches.
Otherwise, the mahjong gambling option you could play in the Japanese version of Raidou's Devil Summoner games ended up being removed. It's common knowledge to the Japanese how it's played, so there's no tutorial, so Atlus just took it out since its only purpose is to get extra money. I still think that was silly of them since it was indeed optional and it's easy enough to use the internet to figure out how to play.
