Long before mobile casinos ate up everyone’s lunch breaks, the Game Boy had its own pocket-sized trip to Vegas with Caesars Palace (1991). Developed by Realtime Associates and published by Virgin Games, this cartridge turned your handheld into a miniature casino floor—without the free drinks or cigarette haze. It’s old-school gambling fun, minus the part where you actually lose your rent money.

You’ll find classic games like blackjack, roulette, slots, and video poker, all simplified for the 8-bit screen but still carrying that casino vibe. The goal? Build your bankroll, play smart (or dumb), and try to leave the casino richer than you entered. Spoiler: just like real life, the house usually wins—but that’s part of the fun.

Why should you buy retro games like this one?

1. One of the earliest casino sims on a handheld system.
2. Portable blackjack and slots made Game Boy gaming weirdly addictive.
3. A quirky collector’s oddball that captures 90s “Vegas fever.”

If you’re stacking your Game Boy collection, Caesars Palace is a must-have piece of retro gambling history. It’s cheesy, it’s simple, and it’s proof that even in 1991, people couldn’t resist a good spin of the slots. And yeah—buy retro games on Retro Games eXchange, because sometimes your collection needs a little casino chaos.
