(PRESS RELEASE) -- GameCo, Inc., maker of the world's first video game gambling machine (VGM), announces its plans for a broad presence at this year's Global Gaming Expo (G2E) Sept. 27-29 in Las Vegas. Throughout the convention, conference attendees will have the exclusive opportunity to play GameCo's VGM, which is poised to be the world's first introduction to skill-based video game gambling when it hits casino floors in Atlantic City this year.
On the convention floor, GameCo will exhibit its premiere product, the "Tri-Pod" VGM Carousel at the Integrated Resort Experience, which will be staffed by professional esports athletes and GameCo executives to demo the game with attendees. GameCo's VGM will also be on display in the booth of international engineering and manufacturing giant, Suzo-Happ, designer and developer of the VGM's game controller. In addition, Quixant, the world's premier designer and manufacturer of PC-based computer systems for the global gaming industry will be demoing GameCo's first game, "Danger Arena" on its video wall.
On day two of the convention, Blaine Graboyes, CEO of GameCo, will be a featured speaker on the eSports and Casinos: The Coming Collision panel session on Wednesday, Sept. 28 from 1:30-2:30 p.m. In addition, GameCo will host a private hospitality suite at the Venetian Palazzo for prospective buyers and casino operators to learn more about the VGM and the future of skill-based gaming for casinos.
"Fall is gearing up to be a pivotal time for GameCo, first with the impending launch of our VGM in Atlantic City, as well as our participation at G2E. The debut of our VGM on casino floors will be an historic first step in the evolution of slot gaming, an industry that is adapting for a new generation of players. We are excited to discuss and share our product with the international gaming and casino industry at G2E," said Graboyes.
In September, GameCo will debut a demo version of its VGM at
Downtown Grand Las Vegas Hotel & Casino's esports lounge. The VGM will be an exact version of the units that will launch on casino floors in Atlantic City, but will function as a non-gaming demo device.
Later this Fall, Graboyes is scheduled to speak at Naruscope's Esports & Casino Resorts Conference, taking place Oct. 25-26 at SLS Las Vegas Hotel & Casino. The conference will focus on practical strategies and tactics involving esports that gaming properties can immediately implement on casino floors. GameCo will have a VGM onsite at the conference for demos.
