Expo is Slot Machine Heaven

The Global Gaming Expo is a gambler’s paradise. It is where you can see all the new toys and gadgets that will be coming your way soon, and it gives slot machine fans a chance to see what new kinds of slot machine and gambling devices the future could hold for them.

Many slot machine fans go to the expo to see what their competitors are up to – what kinds of new ideas have they been working on since last year? The slot machine casino executives, and there were roughly 30,000 of them there, go from place to place to see what kind of slot machines they want to bring into their casino. They want to see what the manufacturers have brought in, as well as try to get a feel for what slot machines their customers are going to want to try.

There are wireless slot machines, online gambling rooms, multiplayer slot machines, you name it. Some of the slot machines have not received approval yet from the Nevada Gaming Commission, and still others are already moving into casinos. Progressive Gaming salesmen were touting equipment that would transform neighborhood bars into gambling Meccas all with the use of their “Rapid Bet Live” program that is already being tested at the Palms.

Compact slot machines seem to be the hot new item this year, with each company showing how they could do it better than their competitors. Another hot item is multiplayer slot machines, where everyone can win together. There were some branded slot machines, but not many. There was a new take on the “top Gun” game, but many believe that slot machines such as those are really becoming outdated.
