The uh, lottery is pretty profitable and (for a lottery) pretty easy to win. We have gatchapon machines, underage drinking and murder. I do not personally accept the premise when the gambling is -entirely- within the confines of the game for disney dollars and there's no round-permanent lootbox stuff.
I'll go buck wild to stop our inevitable pod armour DLC or SSR Wraith round pulls I promise and while I think it's good to keep things like that in mind and bring them up, I don't think that's the issue here myself.
What I do think though, is making the roulette machines a way to make any kind of money even semi-reliably is going to be very very boring. The lottery works because you buy a ticket and move on with your round. Though if you want a good advert -against- gambling having three staff assistants every round sitting still playing the slots is a pretty good one. Plus honestly, the roulette machines -sucking- is just funnier. Unless you gamified the system like Earthfire's original concept (or just break the damn thing for a one-time dose of credits for clowns on the go) I'm pretty happy where things are.
