Bally Technologies will exhibit an array of games, systems, networked, and server-based innovations at G2E Asia in its booth #1003. Debuting in Macau for the first time is iDeck, the new, button-less, touch-screen button deck. iDeck redefines player-game interaction as its versatility offers extensive customisable features, virtual games, and mystery bonusing. The iDeck is a revolutionary innovation as it is the first full video player interface in the gaming industry. With iDeck, when new game content is installed, the button configuration instantly changes to match the game – ensuring that operators will never need to change a button deck again.
G2E Asia is the perfect setting to officially launch Bally’s state-of-the-art Pro Series cabinets for the Asia-Pacific region. These modern cabinets are highlighted by various energy-saving features and were built for easy serviceability and maximum player comfort. They support downloadable content and are ready for networked and server-based gaming environments. The Pro Series cabinets are driven by the power of Bally’s new ALPHA 2 platform that enables new levels of interactivity and visual quality with 3D-graphic animations. The ALPHA 2 operating system allows for more impactful, interactive, and graphically stunning games, thus taking Bally’s core video product portfolio to the next level.
Bally’s sleek Pro Series V22/22 cabinet stands out thanks to its cutting-edge design, custom surround sound, interaction, and unrivaled player comfort. Some of the games presented on this cabinet will be Seagull Sam, Bacchus Gold, and Ole Jalapeños. Seagull Sam and Bacchus Gold offer the popular play mechanic Holding Wilds. In Holding Wilds, during the free games bonus, any wild symbol that appears will ‘lock’ in that position and hold for the remainder of the free games feature. Both Ole Jalapeños’ titles – Mild & Wild and Hot & Spicy – offer a three-level progressive and an entertaining bonus event in which players get to interact with Bally’s iDeck.
On display as well on the V22/22 cabinet will be Playboy Hot Zone, Bally’s newest Playboy title. Playboy Playmates are animated over both of the 22-inch touch-enabled LCD displays for an incredible visual presentation. This seductive game features Bally’s patented new Hot Zone play mechanic, in which a “Hot Zone” overlay appears on the reels during the base game and free games, and all symbols under the overlay become “Wild.”
Bally will also introduce the Golden Empire Mystery Progressive link to casino operators in Macau. This is the first theme in Bally’s new mystery progressive link family. The Asian-themed and locally created Golden Empire takes players on a rich and vibrant trip to an ancient land filled with the possibility of lavish riches and rewards. Players can win one of the three or four randomly triggered progressive jackpots, depending

Exhibiting for the first time in Asia will be Bally’s breakthrough game Code Red. Presented on Bally’s new Pro Curve cabinet featuring a first-of-its-kind 22-inch ‘curved’ LCD display, the Pro Curve offers players the look and feel of a traditional reel- spinning slot with the modern convenience and technology of video.
on the operator’s configurations. The Golden Empire Link over standalone video slot machines allows jackpots to be triggered randomly during game play; no max bet is required to win one of the progressive amounts. The attract loops playing on the overhead sign package that includes large LCD screens feature dramatic animated sequences of festive celebrations, dragon dancing, sword fighting, and fireworks erupting as the winning jackpot level is displayed and celebrated.
With the overwhelmingly popularity of table games in casinos across Asia, Bally offers operators TableView, an innovative table-management solution that allows operators to replace their
existing manual rating process with the ease and simplicity of electronic automation. With TableView, it is possible to create an almost paperless environment in the pit and eliminate the delays of entering and updating ratings into the casino- management system. TableView also provides a higher standard of customer service by reducing the amount of time required by supervisors to capture and register player ratings. Bally’sTableView system was designed to provide floor operations staff with a fast and easy solution for entering player ratings, managing requests for chip fills and credits, handling table closers, and issuing customer comps and markers in realtime.
Bally’s iVIEW Display Manager (DM) is a picture-in- picture style player-user-interface for slot machines. This backwards-compatible technology, which works on any manufacturer’s gaming devices with a touch-screen display, has evolved into a self- service “kiosk”, enabling players to carry out many functions, including ordering drinks, requesting their car from valet, and reviewing their offers.
When combined with Bally’s Elite Bonusing Suite applications which deliver floor-wide, interaction promotions, iVIEW DM offers a second-chance-to- win and the ability for players to earn valuable rewards, all without interrupting play on their base game. These interactive applications enable players to spin wheels, select and root for their favorite contest-driven car or horse, get instant rewards on their birthday, and participate in floor-wide slot tournaments.
