Hi gang, I am looking at buying some iGames like Wild Orchid or Treasure of Troy iGame machines. These look/act a lot like S2K games which I know well.. except for a different MPU (and placement). I wanted to ask how well these sell or not? Are these problematic or easy to work with and work on? I am interested in venturing into this platform but know little about it. I know S+ and S2K games pretty well.
This is kind of what they look like (example)

You are better off going to AVP at this point, like a g23 or a g20. The iGames (aka 038 and newer 039 ) are 1 game at a time and come in sets using eproms and proprietary simms (unless you get gameking software, which is basically multigame poker, keno, blackjack and 3x3 "slot" games). You can upgrade the iGame cabinet to run 044 games which have better graphics and a nice selection of poker multgame boards, but essentially the same limitation as the older 038 and 039 platform. The games on the 044 platform come on a proprietary board with some flash chips on it. On the AVP patform you can load multiple games of your choice (with few exceptions) at once and select them from a menu, they are loaded with a usb flash drive and are basically zip files. The price difference is not huge. The iGames is on the downside of popularity but it varies based on where you live. If you are in a slots legal state, the AVP is probably what I would do. If you live on the other states, the iGame might be easier to obtain there as they have been floating around longer. Working on an iGame is very similar to the S2000 (they are essentially based on the same hardware architecture), but replace reels for screen (preferably an LCD). The AVP is basically a PC running a version of linux on a proprietary shell and secure filesystem.
