They loosened up the rules on this stuff awhile back. It’s bullshit — unregulated gambling.

There’s one machine like this I saw on a mass pike rest stop… there’s a 10 year old iPad fading away in there, but people are always playing it.

It could be the other way around: people win it so frequently that they can only afford to stock it with obsolete computer hardware…

I'd have thought it would be harder and more expensive to find an unused 10 year old iPad now than to just buy a new low-end one. Give it a few more years and that one in the machine will be a collector's item!
