In North America, there is an industry gaming show in Las Vegas every year called the G2E. I do my best to get photos and video from some of the machines which are getting a lot of attention. Some of these machines may not be out for a year ... and some will be out soon!

I have assembled a little highlight for your viewing enjoyment!

I'll start with a new Lord of the Rings:

Reel Em In: Supercast!

Here is an amazing machine which could only exist on the casino floor ... it's REEL EM IN -- SUPERCAST ... from WMS Gaming:



Uses a device similar to a Wii controller for the casting bonuses.

Mad Men Slot Machine - Real play!

Sometimes a brand new game will be installed on the casino floor for real play! The slot machine "MAD MEN" is based on the American TV show -- and was installed on the floor of the Venetian. I thought I would give it a try!

:eek2:

Lol! I can understand the branded slot rage, and love to see most of them, but come on IGT!
Admitted I hate the whole talk show palette of todays television... for me a talk show was like a news forum/discussion with experts etc. nowadays it's mostly just dramatized or cheap entertainment about various touchy social subjects...rant off/ But really, who cares for an Ellen, Oprah, Jerry Springer or even a better suited one Larry King Live slot?!

Can't imagine this becoming a hit, although there might be plenty fans of her who also happen to gamble, so it will be played.. I am surprised that a woman like Ellen would lend her name for such a slot, never figured her the type for something like that:)
 
Jenga - Reel Slot Play ... from The Wynn Resort

I doubt you have ever thought to yourself ... why isn't there a slot based on JENGA! However ... IGT made that slot ... I played it at The Wynn:

The new Kiss slot machine!

If you are a regular online slot player, you may be familiar with the Kiss Colossal Reel slot!

This game found its way into Las Vegas casinos ... and I caught up with it at the M Resort in Las Vegas.

New Star Trek - Starship Enterprise

Let's hope the new Starship Enterprise slot machine from WMS Gaming makes it to online casinos. I played this one at several locations in Las Vegas.

A brand new Elvis slot machine!

It seems like IGT held the license for Elvis for a long long time. It now appears WMS Gaming has the license ... with this new version of Elvis!

Monopoly - Luxury Diamonds

I don't normally play many QUARTER machines ... but a new MONOPOLY slot machine (Luxury Diamonds) coaxed some nice bets out of me at Sam's Town (Las Vegas).

Vintage Wonder Woman slot! (and Lynda Carter)

I was able to get a little video at the G2E of Lynda Carter (aka Wonder Woman) ... from the Bally Technologies booth. The campy soundtrack has been laughing.

Hi incrediblestuff:

You make some good points. Branding is obviously alive and well at the show! I was equally surprised when "Judge Judy" lent her name to a slot machine a few years ago (it's not a very good slot either). IGT still has the staff to make a good game from a hardware and software perspective ... but the branding and math on their games has been very very suspect. They do not have the floor dominance that their once did. Aristocrat has made huge strides.

Thanks so much for your post. Glad you enjoyed the previews!

Thanks Simmo!

Thanks Simmo ... slot machines has become a passion of mine over the years, so I am glad I could video and post the latest from the North American land-based industry. As we already know, many of the companies will make good use of these games ... and some will end up online. Conversely, there are some games (like Kiss) which actually showed up online before they hit the casino floor. It's an exciting time, as many Canadian provinces ... and some American States are talking about internet gaming. With all of the potential revenue, and land-based revenue which has been clipping more an a decade, it seems like a matter of time before the US government turns on the flood gates.

That said, a likely Republican government in the next election could hold tha dream for a few years! :)
