Casino Slots Machine List

Penny Slots: classic pokies found in most casinos around the world – old fashioned slot machines. 3D Slots: a modern classic game variation using the latest software to ensure decent graphics in any browser. Video slots: demo games like Buffalo, Triple Diamond, Wheel of Fortune, video titles take the best of both old and new slot games. Slot machine providers create and manufacture slot machine games for casinos throughout the world. Some of these manufacturers work exclusively with brick and mortar casinos. Others offerboth online casinos and traditional casinos their games. And a few companies only offer Internet casinos access to their games.

Introduction to Who Builds Slot Machines

Who builds slot machines throughout the world? For such a popular activity, there is a relatively short list of slot machine manufacturers in the world:

  • Multimedia Games Inc. (a subsidiary of EVERI Inc.)

Of these companies listed, Class III gaming is principally supported in North America by Scientific Games Corp. and IGT. They are both global leaders in the gaming industry. Mergers and acquisitions are the name of the game amongst slot machine manufacturers. It is currently a highly dynamic corporate environment.

In 2014, for instance, Bally Technologies was acquired by Scientific Games. This acquisition is significant as Bally was the driving force for inventing most of the modern features of slot machines enjoyed by so many.

These gambling companies provide products other than physical slot machines. They often also supply casino-management systems. These software packages help casinos to “run” their operations from day-to-day and even in real-time.

This casino operating system software is crucial to casinos as a way to reduce cost and, I’ve found, a significant advantage play for slots enthusiasts. I’ll provide more on this topic at another time.

This operating or enterprise software business is as highly competitive as slot machine manufacturing. Factors that determine how successful providers are in selling their systems include:

  • product features and functionality
  • accuracy
  • reliability
  • service level
  • pricing

Competition is intense because of the relatively low number of providers and the limited number of casinos and jurisdictions in which they operate. Providers are Scientific Gaming, Aristocrat, IGT, Konami, and several smaller companies in international gaming jurisdictions.

The Gaming Industry

Within the global gaming industry, companies building slot machines is trending towards consolidation amongst gaming equipment and technology companies. The gist of why is to increase scale and therefore operating efficiencies. The hoped-for result is accelerated innovation and product development resulting in broader service and product offering.

Several acquisitions of slot machine and other gaming equipment manufacturers have occurred recently, including the purchase of Bally Technologies by Scientific Gaming Corp. and the acquisition of Multimedia Games by Global Cash Access Holdings Inc.

Following a wave of supplier diversification in the gaming industry, where new providers have been gaining in market share, the industry is experiencing significant consolidation.

This convergence is attributable primarily to a slowdown in North American traditional slot machine revenues as regional gaming revenue headwinds, such as declines in same-store sales, impact the demand for slot machines.

Therefore, the machine gaming sector is evolving from just the sale and leasing of slot machines to include:

  1. multi-channel systems and table games equipment for traditional land-based casino
  2. lottery technology
  3. real-money interactive gaming
  4. online and mobile social casino gaming

Within the gaming supply segment, SGC sees the competition on several fronts. Primarily, being a global leader in slot machines has resulted in their product lines competing with each other for space on the casino floor.
