Aristocrat Technologies to attend NIGA 2009

LAS VEGAS, Nevada -- (PRESS RELEASE) -- There are many imitators, but attendees at the NIGA 2009 tradeshow will easily spot the real thing in Aristocrat Technologies' Booth #800, which will be filled with the very latest games in Aristocrat's exciting portfolio.

Aristocrat President Nick Khin said, "For more than 50 years, Aristocrat has been leading the gaming industry with innovative games that players love and powerful systems that increase operators' bottom lines. At NIGA 2009, we are helping Tribes build for the future, and we are proud to present a wide range of exciting products perfectly suited for Tribal casinos and their players, for today and tomorrow."

The Native American Gaming Association's annual trade show takes place April 15-16 in Phoenix, Ariz., and Aristocrat has a powerful lineup to attract and thrill attendees, including:

Just when you thought it was safe to go back to NIGA, Aristocrat unleashes JAWS™! Based on the Academy Award®-winning film franchise, JAWS submerges the player in a total experience. Encasing the game is the award-winning VIRIDIAN™ cabinet, and from deep in the game rises the familiar "DaaaDa! DaaaDa!" JAWS soundtrack. JAWS' unique game play is powered by the award-winning GEN7™ platform and includes 4-level linked progressive jackpots. Hyperlink® jackpot triggers with three additional bonus features to create a high bonus frequency for the player.

Aristocrat's exciting, new VIRIDIAN RFX™ Stepper features intelligent reel hardware that gives fine-grained reel control and consistently reliable performance. The RFX stepper uses new and more reliable reels co-developed with leading industry reel manufacturer, Gamesman. The specially designed reels were crafted to eliminate "bounce" and thereby eliminate visual fatigue, so players can play longer and in greater comfort, and its cabinet houses two graphic-intense LCD screens.

The Sopranos® video Double Standalone Progressive™ slot is part of a big family of Aristocrat top-performers housed in the VIRIDIAN cabinet and powered by the GEN7 platform. The Sopranos offers a double-standalone progressive with five exciting bonus features where players win free credits, games, multipliers and progressive jackpots, and is available on two exciting base games: Respect the Bing!™ and This Thing of Ours™.

Aristocrat has upped the ante bringing even more fun and excitement to the penny slot world with Mega Millioni$er™, a multi-site progressive that offers higher awards and a life-changing top jackpot. Mega Millioni$er is available in the VIRIDIAN cabinet with a multi-game video pack, and as a VIRIDIAN RFX Stepper. The Mega Millioni$er grand jackpot startup in GLI jurisdictions is $1,000,000.

Aristocrat's Jackpot Royale™ sets new standards in the slot world by presenting the first multi-game, multi-denom, double standalone progressive jackpot product. Jackpot Royale is new and exciting because the number of lines automatically changes depending on the denomination the player chooses.

Great games deserve a great system, and Aristocrat's OASIS 360™ is a comprehensive gaming solution for operators of any size or location.
