Line 5:
 
In video games, this is ''sometimes'' a [[Minigame Zone]], but not always. Only if you can play it's a [[Minigame Zone]]. It ''could'' be both, if you can play the games there, but have to bring down [[The Mafia]] too.

Line 14:
== [[Film]] ==
* The film ''[[Casino]].''
* A few [[James Bond (Filmfilm)|James Bond]] films, such as ''[[Casino Royale (Film)|Casino Royale]]'' and ''[[Diamonds Are Forever (Film)|Diamonds Are Forever]].''
* In the movie ''[[Three Thousand3000 Miles to Graceland (Film)|Three Thousand Miles to Graceland]],'' there's a shootout in one of these, featuring robbers wearing Elvis outfits.
* The movie ''[[OceansOcean's Eleven|Ocean's Thirteen]]'' feature the titular team rigging all the games in one of these for revenge.
* When [[Iron Man (Filmfilm)|Tony Stark]] is given an award at a ceremony held in Las Vegas, he misses accepting the award because he's busy working. And by busy working, we mean having some fun gambling.
* Biff Tannen's Pleasure Paradise from ''[[Back to The Future Part II]]''.
* In [[Cars|''Cars 2'']], the Lemons actually use an old casino in Italy as their evil lair.
Line 33:
== [[Video Games]] ==
* ''[[Pokémon]] Red'''s Game Corner, while a [[Minigame Zone]], is also the front for Team Rocket's base of operations.
* [[Theme Naming|Baccarat]] in ''[[Saga Frontier (Video Game)|Saga Frontier]]''. At least three characters go there during their quests, but none of the games can be played
* In ''[[Paper Mario the Thousand Year Door (Video Game)|Paper Mario the Thousand Year Door]],'' there's the Pianta Parlor, ''[[Getting Crap Past the Radar|owned by the mob.]]'' E Rating, indeed.
* Glittertown/Neon City in ''[[Wario Land (Video Game)|Wario Land]] Shake It'' is this kind of area, with multiple casino type areas in two levels set in an extremely obvious fictional pastiche of Las Vegas.
* The third mission in ''[[Bonanza Bros|Bonanza Bros.]]'' takes place in a casino. Depending on whether or not you're playing a [[Bowdlerized]] version, either the Casino Executives are corrupt and you're stealing evidence, you're testing an elaborate security system, or it's just a straight-up heist.
* In ''[[Action Doom 2 Urban Brawl]]'', as you're riding an elevator upwards through the corporation building and punching out everyone you meet along the way, one of the floors you come upon is a casino, complete with snazzy casino music and mini-games to play.
* ''[[Sonic Adventure (Video Game)|Sonic Adventure]]'''s third stage is casino themed, but the focus is on pinball, with Sonic as the ball. The main wagering you do is hoping to collect 100 rings in a game to avoid being dumped into the sewer, and one pinball game has a slot bonus, where one set of symbols (Dr. Eggman's face) will steal all of your rings.
