Incredible Technologies is looking to make a splash at this week’s Indian Gaming Tradeshow & Convention in Anaheim with some new Class II games.
Shawn Cassatt, director of product management, said at this year’s IGA show, Incredible Technologies is showing top-performing games in the field, with some new themes within those game families and a preview of Class II games.
“We have a unique electronic table game Class II offering,” Cassatt said. “An existing Class II roulette is a high-performing unit and the only one of its kind out there. We were the first to bring an ETG to Class II, especially with a physical roulette wheel.”
For the first time, Incredible Technologies will display its True Pick Fastball, which is similar to its existing roulette wheel, but with a ball blower with a 38-ball call with single-ball release and single pattern.
“To play off the roulette success we’ve had, we took that same unit and put a different physical RNG, a bingo ball blower. The value is that in certain markets where Class II is prevalent, it can have a lot more game outcomes per hour,” Cassatt said. “It’s a much faster unit. It has the same bet interface and same general format and shows the heat map on the top display and camera for the ball blower, so everybody can see it from every position. We’re pretty excited to show that for the first time. It’s another first-of-its-kind product and we think it has a lot of potential in the market.”
Cassatt said it’s important to showcase Class II products at the IGA show, but added that Class III products are part of it as well.
Incredible Technologies is also showcasing its Prism Element cabinet, the top-performing cabinet for some of the third-party reporting within the industry, ranking most recently as the No. 1 video-portrait cabinet.
Incredible Technologies is highlighting second themes from its game families, including Stack Up Pays Sakura Riches and Treasure Lock Royal Tiger, which is also ranked on industry analytics reports. Cassatt said he’s confident 3 Doves will join the list.
“This will be a nice well-rounded group of games that feature existing top performers and new games from those game families,” Cassatt said. “We’re also showing one new game that has a new game mechanic. We’re not quite ready to reveal that yet. We’re waiting for everybody to see it at the show.”
On its Prism VXP cabinet, Incredible Technologies is showing a new theme with a new game mechanic, Temple Falls, as well as their top-performing game, Mega Money Catch, Cassatt said.
“With Class III, we have two new games, one on each cabinet, that are completely new game families, as well as new themes from existing top-performing game families,” Cassatt said. “We have a lot of our top-performing games in Class III that are going to Class II. We want to get them into our Class II footprint that has been steadily growing. Those include Treasure Lock and Lotus Link on our Element cabinet. We have our Power Push games on our VXP cabinet, which were recently released to Class II.”
The IGA show is so important for Incredible Technologies that a year ago they launched a new cabinet.
“We have a lot of tribal gaming partners,” Cassatt said. “G2E is the largest show, but we always maintain a presence at IGA. This is the second year in a row in which we’ve shown a new product at IGA, which I don’t think is a common practice. We’re excited for IGA this year. Class II is important and we want to show our next innovative Class II EGT product.”
