US – Konami notes ‘key interest’ in ‘compelling brand extensions’ at NIGA
By Phil - 10 April 2019
Konami Gaming’s new KX 43 video slot cabinet, leading 4K resolution game library, and mobile systems solutions were a key interest at the National Indian Gaming Association’s 34th Annual Tradeshow & Convention this month in San Diego.
Over the course of the two-day event, more than 6,000 tribal leaders and gaming professionals had the chance to experience Konami’s largest mix of KX 43 game options shown to date, including several original linked progressive series and compelling brand extensions like Chili Chili Fire Boosted Wins & Wilds. Guests also enjoyed access to top-anticipated titles across the Concerto collection, including Thunder Arrow, Star Watch Jungle, Treasure Ball, and a limited release Dragon’s Law SeleXion multi-game pack for its big-screen Opus cabinet. In addition, Konami’s SYNKROS casino management system was operating live for on-the-spot demos of its award-winning mobile solutions and more.
With a standard cabinet width, four-times the pixel depth of standard HD, and leading library of 4K-resolution game themes, Konami’s new KX 43 is designed as a trim-fit champion for any area of the floor. Its 43-inch, edge-lit portrait screen carries custom-programed graphic interaction with the LCD button panel, which is inlaid a relaxed slant top. KX 43 includes the core comforts and conveniences for today’s players, including USB charging port, dual cup holders, and dual classic bash buttons.
Konami stated: “During NIGA 2019, KX 43 showcased a competitive lineup of launch titles covering everything from symbol-driven linked progressives to original jackpot bonuses. A variety of game themes were displayed, all developed in 4K Ultra HD for graphics that catch attention and celebrate wins with stunning excitement.”
