    It was never a problem before?

    I know most state gambling laws are that you cannot pay to have a chance at winning something, that is illegal.

    You can however reward people for a skill at something, like sinking a ball into a basket.

    But this is a video game, does that make virtual poker illegal too? I'm so confused...

    It could be laws which are always changin especially in regards to the internet now, but it could also be that they mistook the NA/EU complaning about the Japanese getting a raffle for good items and not them because it was illegal, rather than just being selfish (Since the NA/EU weren't getting the chance yet.)
