Apex set up in Mexico Apex Gaming has opened a new subsidiary in Mexico City to be headed up by Darek Borowiec. “As you’d expect, the Mexican mentality is unique in its own way,” Borowiec said. “Mexicans expect local service. They want to know that their contact is close by. Naturally, we respect such a demand and together with the great feedback from our Pinnacle slots, it has been a natural step to establish a local presence”. Johannes Weissengruber, founder and CEO of Apex gaming, added: “We have a great track record behind us and we were confident of having a successful ELA show due to the feedback from our customers far and wide on the new Pinnacle cabinet and games packages. This sends out a strong message to the market - that Apex gaming solutions belong to the Mexican gaming environment and that Apex gaming is 100 per cent committed to our Mexican customers.”


Atronic shows diversity with African installs


intoafrica ATRONIC


Atronic’s new multigame, diversity, continues its enormously successful rollout with its first installa- tions in Africa. In Novem- ber two casinos in Kenya, Bollywood and Casinomax, were the first in the conti- nent to install diversity with the Brilliant Blue game suite. Two South African casinos,


Golden


Horse and Monte Casino, have also followed suit by rolling out diver- sity with the Bril- liant Blue and Pure Purple game packages. Offering a


variety of 10 games, Atronic’s groundbreaking diversity multi- game is the only product on the market f eatur ing proven, top- performing standalone progressive games, all in a multi-line and multi-denomi- nation format. Pre-


sented on the new Oxygen cabinet, diversity offers a touch screen that allows players to select their pre- ferred game types with dif- ferent volatility levels. For each game, players can choose their individual denomination and bet, while the paytable is con- veniently shown on the top screen.


The new Oxygen cabinet features value-driven inno-


vation. Oxygen is powered by the robust new sensys EP plat- form, which is easy to service and provides the highest level of security by using smart card devices. With its Game to System (G2S) compati- ble hardware, Oxygen is netw or k- gaming ready, and sup- ports all major casino systems and player track- ing modules. With 22-inch dual screens, Oxygen’ s reel strips are


larger and easier to see, while a new simplified button panel maximises player comfort and conven- ience.


The Brilliant Blue and


Pure Purple game suites have been approved in South Africa, while Royal Red is due to be released. Each game suite offers a variety of games in four cat- egories. The categories include Line Action, featur- ing favourite core games such as Princess of the Amazon; Thriller Jackpots, featuring top-performing Cash Fever standalone pro- gressive titles such as Deep Diamonds; selected Classic Slots, featuring traditional volatile low-line games such as Brilliant Fruits; and a No Limits game, offering the unique and extremely volatile non-reel option, Triple Way Hi-Lo. diversity gives operators a competitive advantage by providing multiple game options in space-limited venues, and extends play and profit-per-customer. Meanwhile, its technology includes few consumable parts, minimised boards, and does not use DVDs or graphics cards. As a result, diversity is durable, stream- lines playability, and is user- friendly.


Slovenian casino takes two Euro firsts from Aristocrat


firstup ARISTOCRAT


Grand Casinò Lipica, part of Slovenia-based Casinò Portorož group, has delivered two European firsts for Aristocrat Technologies, with the simultaneous launch of Viridian Lowboy (Chop Top) standalone games and Aristocrat’s Triple Standalone Progressive, Hillbillions.


The package, which included a number of Double Standalone Progressives and stand- alone GEN7 games installed on the gaming floors in both Lipica and Portorož, also saw the first placement of Bank Buster Hyperlink in Slovenia. President of the board, Casinò Portorož dd, Marjan Bolka, commented: “We were the first group in Slovenia to purchase Aristocrat product many years ago and the first casino to have an online system. Aristocrat prod- ucts always perform well above floor average for us, generating consistently good income. We are delighted to be the first hosts of this new technology, not only locally but across Europe, having no doubt that our customers will respond positively and that this will be reflected in performance levels.” Slot director Aleš Turk added: “The intro-


duction of TITO gave us the opportunity to upgrade our gaming floors with a new and varied suite of games, including the use of new Viridian games and Lowboy cabinets to open up the slot layout. The success we enjoyed with Zorro prompted us to invest in more standalone progressives whilst our existing Hyperlinks, Cash Express and Jackpot Carnival, have always performed well above expectations - so the introduc- tion of Bank Buster, a new, multi-feature Viridian offering for our link players, was also an obvious choice.”
