==Gambling in fiction==
===Video games===
====''Mario'' franchise====
Various ''[[Mario (franchise)|Mario]]'' games have included gambling minigames, such as ''Super Mario 64 DS'' and ''Mario Party Advance''. In fact, both games received a Parental Guidance (PG) rating in [[Australia]] due to their inclusion of gambling.
In ''Mario Party Advance'', the gambling minigames include Drop 'Em, Match 'Em, Pair 'Em, Scratch 'Em, Stop 'Em, and Watch 'Em.
In the [[Nintendo DS]] era, the South Korean localization of a few ''Mario'' games took a [[censorship]] approach to remove any references to gambling, because casino gambling is illegal in [[South Korea]]. Furthermore, because ''Super Mario 64 DS'' has some casino-styled gambling minigames featuring [[Luigi]], all minigames, including those without gambling features, were outright removed from the South Korean version of the game. In ''Mario Party DS'', two features on the party board, Bowser's Pinball Machine, were altered to remove casino gambling references.
