In Japan there are many game centers where you can find all kinds of weird arcades. In the big ones there is always a “horse simulation machine” where many people can join the same game, make their bets and watch the race on a big screen or observing little-horse-figures moving on some kind of scenario.
In this video you can see one of the machines with horse figures.
These pictures are from one of the latest machines from Konami. Look at the guy in the last picture, he is reading manga! while the simulator is showing the final results.

Gotta love the business man reading what appears to be a yaoi manga…
Wonder if they sprinkle horse poo around the place to make it smell more real.
they would call it aromatherapy 😉
The best horse race simulation game i know is http://www.horseracegame.com/. The best part that you can enjoy is the tournament play among the breeds with highest points and good wining history.
