What did you show in G2E?
We have brand new products; last year was a breakout year for Galaxy Gaming, and for this show we have specifically a game that we just acquire from Prime Table Games called 21+3, which is blackjack and Three Card Poker in one game, and we had a great response to it. We also added a game called Bonus Craps, is a game for craps and dices and is having a great response too. As well, we have a lot of our standard programs, we really finished a lot of good work on our Jackpot System, this is a progressive system that allows casinos to take their table games and add a progressive jackpot, so for a dollar people can win a life-altering jackpot.
Galaxy is the first manufacturer that was able to link casinos together, so since last year, we put together a program called Bonus Jackpot System, to link tables from different casinos, in the same jurisdiction but in different location. A good example is Station casinos in Las Vegas, Nevada, we put a table in each one of its properties a game called “This is wild”, that is one of our games, but then we linked them all together, so when players play this, all the jackpot contributions go to a one big jackpot, so you have like ten tables contributing to makes the jackpot really big.
And then we have a new thing called “Mega Share”, which is a chance for player to wager just a dollar and anybody in the casino can get a hit, so it’s like something that table game players will know, a thing called the MB Bonus, that means that you wager certain amount of money, you qualify, and when anybody in the table hits, everybody share.
Which is the most important market for Galaxy?
Since last year we added a incredible international distribution, for example if you would ask me this last year, it would be Canada and US, but since then we have added tables in Australia, New Zealand, Caribbean, Aruba, Saint martin, etc; and we just launch an European distributor, in France, so we will add games in the next few months in Switzerland, Italy and France, and we install the 21+3 in the UK. Galaxy probably will be the leading table games provider in the UK. We have a big year.
Plus we have “Table Max”, which is an electronic table game that many casinos, especially smaller ones, are making their pit smaller or eliminating them all together, so we have a program called Table Max that is all electronic with no dealer.
How was the show?
We´ve been busy. The first day was busy and then it kind of slow down a little bit, but the second day was really busy. We had lot of interest in the 21+3 Game, and the Bonus Crap. Tables manager tend to move around in the country, a lot of this people will love to have this games in but weren’t able to get, we can now offer them nationwide. It´s been a really good show for us, we triplicate our booth space, last year we were 20 by 20, this year 20 by 60.
Will you go to another show?
In London we will be there.
