In a statement, Hsu explained that his company “has a very a very good foundation here in Asia but we’re trying to go global as well.” He further added that the company already has products that are being used in the Philippines, Nepal, Thailand, Korea, Macau, Cambodia, Singapore, Malaysia, and Myanmar. The deal with Cambodia was recently signed and they are expecting to deploy their machinery to Poipet by the end of this year.
“We’re trying to penetrate Vietnam in Southeast Asia and we’re looking at Australia for next year as well,” Hsu explained of the planned expansion.
According to their website, they have distributed equipment to over 200 casinos and clubs across the globe. Included in their current products and services are electronic table games, slot machines, fishing games, and casino management systems. They also provide technical and service support when needed.
Which specific operations in both Australia and Vietnam that Jumbo might be partnering with are not mentioned. However, they have developed a reputation that should not make it difficult to find casinos and clubs who would be anxious to use their equipment.
Jumbo Technology will be celebrating their 20th anniversary in 2020. This is the reason why they are preparing to introduce a new batch of products, discussed by Hsu in his statement. “We have a second brand new link coming out, we have a new ETG coming out, brand new box, bigger screen, fishing games coming out, which are doing really well in Southeast Asia as well.”
It’s the latest innovation, the BāoNǐFā Jackpot, was recently showcased at the MGS Entertainment Show and is based upon the Jumbo’s other Jackpot game, Yi Lu Fa.
What is making BāoNǐFā so appealing is that it offers its own standalone fortune Jackpot included with the three progressive linked jackpots. Three games are linked to the BāoNǐFā, including “Power Dragon,”“Power Mask,” and “Power Lion.” They are linked through a power-up feature which gives players the capability of winning in multiple ways or multiplying their current winnings.
Included with the BāoNǐFā Jackpot is the new D27 cabinet housing. This provides a 27 inch, high resolution, dual-screen as well as a 10.1 inch configurable button touch panel which makes it easier to play.
