First off, this is a classic gaming forum, so all the on topic systems

He wants to outlaw the existing games.


Second, what games on the listed machines are so realistic as to be
ban-worthy?

Realism was not mentioned by the troll.


And finally, the attempt has already been made and defeated in court to
ban games.

Unfortunately that is not true for most jurisdictions.
