With a host of new products designed specifically for Asia’s markets, TCSJOHNHUXLEY is rapidly expanding its presence in the region
TCSJOHNHUXLEY’s new Tablet Roulette will be a highlight at G2E Asia for one of the industry leaders in the development of table games systems and supporting products.
Tablet Roulette, as the name implies, is a unique form of mobile gaming in a live casino environment that allows players to roam the casino floor while continually enjoying actual roulette in real time in what have previously been non-gambling areas.
From its Macau office, TCSJOHNHUXLEY has learned a great deal about the needs and preferences of Asia’s operators and players, and the UK-based company will be at Stand 1219 at G2E Asia with a number of applications tailored specifically for the region—like Gaming Floor Live, a proven real-time game-optimization tool designed to maximize performance and profitability at key areas on the floor. Gaming Floor Live automatically captures game data to provide casinos with information vital to boosting their turnover, maintaining house advantage, reduce their operating costs and better understand opportunity costs.
The company also is showing its Supernova Table Bonus System, one of the hottest new developments for TCSJOHNHUXLEY this year and one it expects will be a crowd pleaser at G2E Asia. One of the unique features of this floor-wide progressive jackpot and bonusing system is that it can be applied to any table game, including roulette, linking them together and driving increased revenues with features designed to enhance player excitement and loyalty. Its multi-level event-based and mystery prizes can be employed even on games that don’t normally run progressive jackpots.
“You can add the Supernova system to any game, even one without a progressive jackpot, and just have it running in mystery mode,” explains Harley Jackson, who headed up development of Supernova as technical director for TCSJOHNHUXLEY Australia. “Having listened to the needs of casino operators, our latest Supernova developments link your card and roulette tables together. This operates across local- and wide-area networks to generate dramatic prize pools and jackpots.”
Supernova also incorporates the widescreen Omni Progressive Display. And it features multiple odometers and can be re-skinned and themed to integrate with a base table game and reinforce the overall casino brand. An intuitive touchscreen handset allows easy dealer operation and quick game-change configuration.
Supernova also employs an innovative animated bet “sensor” that is capable of an almost limitless range of special effects to attract and entice players—modes that pulsate, spin and sparkle to drive side-bet participation and increase the energy level in the pit.
Bets are made and recorded when chips are placed onto the Supernova sensors fitted to the table. Players can play the base game alone or they can choose to play the base game plus a mystery bonus. In many cases, they can play for a progressive jackpot, too, if supported by the base game. An optional illuminating “Bash Button” adds tactile participation to a range of games, including “double-up” features and secondary bonus games.
