About this game

In this casino game, there is a choice of two game modes: "game" and simulation.

In the simulation mode, the player controls a pachinko ball named Pachio-kun, who walks directly into a casino where he can exchange money for tokens and try his luck at the slot machines.

In the "game mode", he is brought in a helicopter onto a top-down "world map" area.

He is told that this is Brooklyn, New York, and begins to roam the area, gradually gaining access to different casino houses.

There are also random encounters, during which he is able to bet some money and directly operate a slot machine from the world map.

About Nintendo Entertainment System

The Nintendo Entertainment System (1983 in Japan, 1985 in the West) revived the North American video game industry after the 1983 crash and established conventions — cartridges, licensing seals, save systems — that shaped the industry for decades. NES collecting is one of the most established retro markets: common titles remain cheap, but a well-known handful of low-print-run games (many from smaller third-party publishers) are among the most expensive video games in existence.

Gamevaro tracks American Dream for Nintendo Entertainment System with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.

Adding American Dream to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This NES release dates back to 1989.
