This of course is more convenient because you no longer have to walk around the casino with a bucket full of quarters. However, there are still people who get a sense of nostalgia for the old, coin-operated 3-reelers. So can you find these antiques throughout Las Vegas?<\/p>\n<p>The good news is that, yes, there are still some coin-based slots that you can play around Vegas, allowing you to carry buckets of quarters without feeling weird.<\/p>\n<p>According to <a href=\"http:\/\/vegasseven.com\/2016\/04\/27\/can-still-play-coin-operated-slot-machine-las-vegas\/\" class=\"external\" rel=\"nofollow\">Vegas Seven<\/a>, a couple of hot spots for nostalgic slots lovers include El Cortez, Circus Circus and The D. The D is especially a good spot because their entire floor is filled with classic, coin-operated slots. They also feature Sigma Derby, a famed slots relic that sees you compete in a multi-player horse race.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Which Casino should I visit for Coin Slot Machines?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/www.slotsmamma.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/el-cortez-slots-300x194.jpg\" alt=\"el-cortez-slots\" width=\"300\" height=\"194\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-2410\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.slotsmamma.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/el-cortez-slots-300x194.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.slotsmamma.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/el-cortez-slots.jpg 695w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/>The casino you choose will largely depend upon your preferences. The D and El Cortez are both located downtown, with The D being more upscale. El Cortez, however, is the far better value in terms of hotel rooms and food.<\/p>\n<p>Circus Circus is located on the Vegas Strip, giving you access to all the touristy amenities that the strip has to offer. Of course, this comes with a price too if you stay at Circus Circus.<\/p>\n<p>You can also find some coin slot machines at MGM Grand like Sigma Derby. But this is even more expensive than the three previously discussed casinos.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Advantage of Coin Slot Machines<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/www.slotsmamma.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/mgm-casino-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"mgm-casino\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-2411\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.slotsmamma.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/mgm-casino-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.slotsmamma.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/mgm-casino-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.slotsmamma.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/mgm-casino-1024x683.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/>If you&#8217;ve read up to this point, chances are that nostalgia from old Vegas trips is your primary reason for seeking out coin-operated slots. However, one more reason to play them is the high hit frequency.<\/p>\n<p>Sure, those big multipliers and bonus rounds make today&#8217;s video slots exciting. But if you find coin slots with a low top payout (i.e. 1,000 to 3,000 coins) and no extra frills, then you&#8217;ll be winning quite often in comparison to the 50-line video slots that quickly suck away your money.<\/p>\n<p>This makes your bankroll last longer while playing and also increases your entertainment.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Around the 1990s, Las Vegas began a shift from coin-operated slot machines to ticket-based models.
