Casino equipment supplier and lottery services provider Scientific Games Corp has chosen the Macau market for a world debut of its new “Jin Ji Bao Xi” slot product. The company declined to say where it had been installed. The machine will however also appear soon in casinos in Asia-Pacific (Apac) markets, namely the Philippines and Cambodia.
“Some more” Macau venues would be having the product, said Ken Jolly, Scientific Games vice president and managing director of Asia, in a comment to GGRAsia. “Within two weeks, it will be installed in the Philippines and by next month in Cambodia,” he added.
In a press release on Thursday, Scientific Games had said the installation of “Jin Ji Bao Xi” in Macau followed “the success of the company’s ‘Duo Fu Duo Cai’ family [of games] link in Macau”.
“’Jin Ji Bao Xi’ is the latest multi-denominational, progressive linked jackpot from Scientific Games’ new offering of the Echo Fortunes base game on the Dualo cabinet, which debuted at the Macau Gaming Show last November,” the release added.
The firm further noted the new product had “exclusive content and design for Asian players”.
