So who's all from Texas? I need some help.

I'm hearing Texan slot shops have a bunch of Vision machines....anybody know who's got 'em?

I wanna collect/buy some BGM CF compact flash cards data for a couple of Vision games I'm trying to put together.

Specifically, any version of the "Slot Bingo" themes, "Tee Time" golf game or "Hook, Line & Winner" game for rockinelvis.

PM me if you have an idea who I should try to call? Thanks!

Dear Mark,




                      Hey while we're on the subject of Vision Machines.   Who could differentiate the characteristics between S2000, "I" Machines and Vision Machines.   Besides what else from Uprights and Sloped/Slanted's.




                                                                                                                   Mr. Robert P.

The IGT S2000 platform had a few different models but used the same cabinet...it is a reel-based machine.

The IGT Vision series used the same cabinets but added a small computer in the topbox with a small LCD screen....so essentially, it's somewhat of a hybrid.
That LCD up there in the topbox display is THE main clue that it's a Vision machine.

The IGT i-Game came out immediately afterwards, used an entirely different door and is a video-based machine with a different MPU board and far better video graphics than the Vision platform - this was the turning point where the reel-based games were on their way out.

All of these platforms had a version of a "Sit-Down" model to go along with the basic "Upright" machines.
They all had a "Bar-Top" counter version as well.

I am not sure if the S2000 or Vision series had a "Jumbo-sized" version...I've never seen one.
I know the S+ platform made one in the 80's and 90's....these were huge and weighed about 800lbs!

To further complicate things, some of these platforms had a "Cruise-Ship" style version in which the machines had narrowly-sized cabinets.
