Back in 2010, when I realized how freaking difficult Voltorb Flip was, I started brainstorming ideas of what they could have done instead in the localized versions. I mean, a Minesweeper variant is just a huge waste of the touch screen's potential. I thought it would have been better if someone had thought to turn the Game Corner into an arcade. It'd have been simple (in terms of programming): create a few Pokémon-themed arcade games-- like Whac-A-Diglett and Voltorb Skeeball-- make it so that you have to pay a small amount of money (somewhere in the 5-10 monetary unit range), change the word "Coins" into "Tokens," and Ta-Da! You have a much better replacement for the slot machines that's closer to the original concept.
I'm personally hoping that they decide to do something along this line in future games. Sure, the TMs are all reusable now, so there wouldn't be much point in offering them there, but they could still offer rare items and Pokémon for prizes. Anyone else have any ideas for Game Corner alternatives that they'd like to share?
