If you or someone you know purchased (as a new and not used product), played, and are familiar with the operation of any of the following, I would be interested in speaking with you. Thanks in advance!!

    I'm not sure what you mean by 'familiar with the operation of'.

    I think I can operate the SNES pretty well!

    I bought Vegas Stakes after renting both S. Caesar's Palace and Vegas Stakes. I liked the story in Vegas Stakes and thought the game played faster. Don't know what you need to know, but I still have my game, and bought a sealed copy a few years back because it was cheap. I still have both, I never opened the sealed one. I think it goes for $3.97 on ebay!

    Like most people on this site, I am familiar with most of those games and all of the systems. Why don't you have the NES(and games) listed?

    I bought my SNES and the Game Boy version of Vegas Stakes brand new, but I don't know what I could tell you about them that anyone else with experience couldn't, unless you're looking for MSRPs or something.

    My reply would be pretty much identical to that of MachineGex - we probably even got the sealed copy from the same place. I'm also unsure as to exactly what you need to know but I did originally purchase it (as it way back when it came out) and I'm quite familiar with it. In case there's any confusion I own two copies of the game - one from when it first came out and a sealed copy that I got a few years ago because, well, it was a cheap, sealed SNES game.

    Sounds like someone is planning to develop a gambling game for an Atari.

    Or perhaps doing research on video games and gambling software.

    I bought Vegas Stakes when it was released in the 90's. PM me if you want.
