Ive been watching this for years and am so excited it's finally here. It's about time there onboard I just hope we'll see BTG and Netent and other games that are not currently available to Ontario. It's not going to stop me from playing my favourite casinos I play at now but if Ontario is a success at this my money will get spread out more, more so if I can BTG games.

I know Landbase casinos are not in favour but really doesn't change much as Ontario is playing offshore casinos anyway and maybe the land base casinos will start offering better entertainment, comps etc like they use to. No more monopoly and that's a good thing.

I saw last night on a Canadian youtuber's channel that netent has signed to provide their slots to us in Ontario, not sure what exact operator or anything.

Mind you we are still waiting for Big Time Gaming slots to show up. @BTG Rep

It's starting to get interesting with all this news coming out all of a sudden, I should probably quit playing right now and save money if all this is coming soon. :)

I'm missing Piggy Riches Megaways but also would love to be able to play various games you can only play on their land based casinos right now....Buffalo Gold, Diamond Queen, Leprecoin, various Quick Hit games they don't currently have, there was also a devil game can't remember the name that was fun.

I noticed a couple of classic games back at OLG's website I enjoy (Cleopatra II and Kitty Glitter) so maybe it will push them to add more variety...assuming i'm looking at Quebec's online casino games list properly they have a TON more games on there than OLG

The online casinos are tighter but at least we’ll be able to play every online slot imaginable. Could this mean Novomatic, too?

Just be careful gambling as always.

@casguy2016

Cleopatra II is a brand new addition, unlike Kitty Glitter and Pharaoh’s Gold which were brought back with the current technology. Hopefully Stinkin’ Rich, Prowling Panther and Dragons Temple will also return someday.

Possibly 30 operators?
You do not have permission to view link Log in or register now.


Although that seems to include sports betting and they likely won't all offer online casinos....at least at launch
HAHA, I thought they would be lining up for one, and looks like they are.:D

Operators brushed us Canadians off and in some cases we Ontarians and we are the biggest market in Canada.

It's true, I remember several times over the years online casinos didn't seem to care about players from Canada. If a problem came up for us they would say Canada is not enough of a big market to make changes or cater to etc. Bet you now there worried there going to lose us now.

I just read a article that all the providers are going to be IGT casinos. Hope they mean that that there will be IGT games along with other providers. If there anything like Playolg then I won’t be so excited. Fingers crossed for April 4th. Don’t understand why IGT has a big influence or why deals are made with this crappy provider.

Betrivers dot net has been advertising non stop during the Olympics, stating coming soon - so I assume April. The site looks like its run by Betsson?

You can check out betrivers demo site right now - I assume this is what they will be starting with. I contacted OLG chat last night to check on new games and they have no information on any new games (shocking) coming to the site.

Checked out betrivers. Not bad, at least Netent games are available.

I take it back signed up to the Canada site and no Netent games.

I saw Novomatic on there, surely that means they will be available to us once they launch. I can't say I'm a big NetEnt fan, so I can survive without them. I really just want BTG, Blueprint, Merkur, Novo (and the full catalogue of NYX/SG, which we have never had).

It is shocking how no games are being added lately or at the most 1 a week.
