Over the years, machines have changed from being coin operated to taking bills or tickets. <\/p>\n<p>In Las Vegas, the change was seen quickly, with options for card and mobile payments now being accepted. For <a href=\"https:\/\/www.circuscircus.com\">Circus Circus Hotel &#038; Casino<\/a>, the venue decided it was time to continue to old tradition of Sin City. The property already offers $1 coin machines and recently added $5 machines to its offering. <\/p>\n<h2 id=\"play-coin-machines-and-enjoy-vintage-las-vegas\">Play Coin Machines and Enjoy Vintage Las Vegas<\/h2>\n<p>Most casinos in Sin City accept tickets or bills as a form of payment. At Circus Circus, players can enjoy reel spinning in vintage style by utilizing the coin operated machines. There are few in existence, allowing the casino to give the younger crowd a glimpse into a bygone era. <\/p>\n<p>Players must insert coins to play and earn coins back as their form of payment. While this may seem inconvenient, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.casinousa.com\/blog\/online-casino-games-with-the-best-payouts\">the machines offer a 97.4% return to player percentage<\/a>, which is quite high in general, even when compared to newer machines. <\/p>\n<div style=\"position:relative;height:0;padding-bottom:56.25%\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/8THH8GYIcms?rel=0&amp;showinfo=0?ecver=2\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" frameborder=\"0\" style=\"position:absolute;width:100%;height:100%;left:0\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Circus Circus is proud of its coin machines and say they are one of the remaining remnants of vintage Vegas on offer. The coin slots are part of several changes within <a href=\"https:\/\/www.casinousa.com\/news\/mgm-resorts-to-sell-bellagio-and-circus-circus-due-to-downturn\">the property after it was taken over by <strong>Phil Ruffin<\/strong> in 2019<\/a>. Along with the machines, the property now has a new air conditioning system, the elevators have been renovated, and swimming pool upgraded. <\/p>\n<h2 id=\"will-it-pay-off\">Will It Pay Off?<\/h2>\n<p>The coin operated machines are neat when it comes to vintage style and look into the past, but will they pay off? Will the games be a big draw to bring in tourists to the casino? It seems unlikely for one key point, the coin aspect. <\/p>\n<p>In the past, it was not uncommon to cash in money at a casino for coins or to bring your own to play with because the machines operated in that manner. Today\u2019s players do not carry around change, much less cash. We have <a href=\"https:\/\/www.casinousa.com\/news\/land-based-casinos-move-towards-cashless-payments-due-to-covid-19\">become a cashless society<\/a> to an extent so it seems unlikely that players will have change on hand or even cash for that matter to play games. <\/p>\n<p>Will players be willing to bring their own coins to play or perhaps visit the cashier for a bit of change to spin the reels? It will be interesting to see if the games garner any attention from players or if they will simply be a prop for selfies as players move on to other gaming options inside the casino.  <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The casino offers $1 and $5 coin machines Games offer a 97.4% RTP with a vintage style Coin machines are one of several additions to the casino since 2019.
