Great Games Start with a Great Foundation

The gaming device platform is the foundation upon which great games are built. Not only do our platforms support the latest technology – they are the leading edge of technology.




CPU-NXT™

As the foundation for deploying the great gaming experience for which we’re renowned, our engineering group collaborated with some of the most cutting-edge technology companies to develop CPU-NXT.

CPU-NXT has been our work-horse platform supporting such highly successful themes as Reel ‘em In, Jackpot Party Progressive™, MONOPOLY®, MEN IN BLACK™, and POWERBALL®, just to name a few. This platform utilizes the ultra-reliable Linux operating system, running an Intel Pentium III class processor with up to 512 megabytes of random access memory, super VGA display with up to 64,000 colors and superb and unprecedented Sprite animation. This platform was the first in the gaming industry to utilize Flash Memory Card technology in lieu of the older Erasable/Programmable Read Only Memory (E-prom) chips.

Connectivity And True Sound

Both platforms come with a full array of Serial, USB, and Category V Network communication and connectivity ports. Ubiquitous to our platforms is the stunning sound quality of the BOSE® Free Field® sound system. The patented Bose signal processing circuitry encompassed in the Bluebird cabinets compensates for how the human ear perceives sound and automatically adjusts tonal balance whenever the game volume levels change. This ensures the crisp clear audible audio detail and nuance regardless of game volume.
