One of the most important Non Wagering Slots aspects of any internet-based casino is the bonuses it offers. Nearly every casino offers its players the welcome bonus which, as the name suggests, is to welcome them to the particular casino’s web site. Blood Suckers is one of the most popular slots from NetEnt when it comes to choosing games for meeting a huge wagering requirement. But the problem is that at some online casinos this slot may be forbidden for play with bonus funds, while at some the wagering contribution is set to 75% or even 50%.
I never saw it or any other such games again, again anywhere. I know few skill based games where you can win prizes(like carnivals) but not direct money.
Are this kind of machines allowed in Vegas? They can be great attractions! And they can find a way to make it profitable I guess, like theme parks and carnivals where skill games are still very profitable for the operators.
Partially, 'Skill-Based,' slot machines are well on their way to becoming a thing in Las Vegas, and perhaps eventually throughout Nevada and in other states with commercial casinos. These games will be profitable because, in many cases (from what I've heard and what has been posted) some of these machines will not have the capability to return over 100% to any individual player regardless of the skill level of that player.
Theme park and carnival games are profitable because they buy the prizes in bulk, thereby not paying very much for an individual prize at all, and the cost to play v. the probability of someone winning is such that the cost to play exceeds the value of the prize, by expectation. There are even some games upon which a player is guaranteed a prize every time, usually it is just some small thing, so if that game costs $3, you can rest assured that the operator paid well under $3 for that prize.
I don't remember when and where(probably in Israel) but I saw once an strange arcade 'shooting' machine, where you can get real money for good performance! You can win 1-1 or 20-1 odds based on performance, and it is not that hard to win 1-1 or 2-1(it not too easy but possible) every for beginners.

You're essentially describing a skill game where gaming would have no control over because it wouldn't really be gambling, random chance secondary. Unless you're the PGA, the PBA, skill will never be a thing which is legal. Pseudo skill is the only option.

Prior to SB 9, Nevada allowed for a skill-based component to be worth up to 4% of a slot machine's return. That's how IGT got their skill-based bonus games out in Vegas (and Bally prior to that). There used to be five IGT titles that had skill-based bonuses in Vegas at once: Spin Devil, Tully's Treasure Hunt (which Axelwolf played), Blood Life Legends, Aladdin Prince of Adventure, and Atari Centipede. Tully, Aladdin, and Blood Life are essentially the same video reel game in different graphics packages, and those three offered the player a choice of taking free spins or the skill-based bonus. The skill bonuses of Spin Devil and Centipede are mandatory.
I'm surprised and not happy that Spin Devil seems to have outlasted the other four. I believe that its bonus round was by far and away the worst of them all -- gameplay was guaranteed to last for only 20 to 36 seconds; the only way to even come close to that little bonus time in any of the other games was via intentional suicide in Centipede. I'm also convinced that it was the only one of the five IGT games in Vegas where you could play perfectly and still get screwed out of a significant portion of the bonus money accumulated. I vultured IGT's other skill-based bonus games but ignored Spin Devil.
Games in AGS' 'It Pays To Know' line of slots typically have multiple bonus features, of which one will be trivia or knowledge-based. But I think only Family Feud can still be found in Vegas and that is definitely not a vulturable game.
As for Frogger, Konami said that they would eventually get a skill-based version out on the casino floor. When that arrives is anyone's guess. The most likely next stop is Space Invaders, from SciGames/WMS/Bally.

Casino would not want to get that kind of machine if a player can use its skill. They would lose profit with those kind of machine. Player with a good skill can earn easy money if casino have that kind of machine.
Absurd. You can have a skill based game where the maximum payout is less than 100%
