Pop Culture Slot Machines a Thing of the Past

This years Global Gaming Expo spoke to the changes that slot machines will be seeing in the coming years. In the past few years it was pretty common to see celebrities faces plastered across slot machines as a way to entice players to the machines. Now though it looks like the slot machines could be going through a conservative phase.

Rather than walking around the expo with celebrities promoting their slot machines as the next big wave of gaming, it seems that the coming year will show the trend that casinos are seeing across the county—slot machines without all of the hoopla are just as popular, or even more popular in some markets, as the celebrity slot machines.

This new wave of slot machines is being attributed to the increasing choices slot players have. A player no longer has just two main choices for gambling, as many states add more and more slot machines as a way to raise revenue, players don’t have to travel all the way to Las Vegas and Atlantic City.

But for those players who just adore the themed slot machines, don’t worry, many of the most popular designs are still here, they have just seen a necessary update. The Wheel of Fortune slot for example, is the most profitable licensed slot machine in the country—and manufacturers assure that the slot will still be at your favorite casino. Other slot machines that are very popular include the “Indiana Jones” and “Star Wars” themed machines—these now updated.

For the companies and casinos though, they’re going to stick with what they know players want—the traditional and themed machines, and machines that offer special bonuses and jackpots—this is a surefire way to keep the regulars while also attracting new players.
