Riverboat Queen
Developer: VGT, Inc
Available: 1992 - 1996 |
The Riverboat Queen was VGT's first foray into the video game
machine market. The machine consists of two components - an Amiga
500 and a Sebastian board that allowed the Amiga to interface with
the touch screen controls and slot interface. Ten games were
available for the unit, including Draw Poker. These games were
developed by several Amiga programmers including Bill Evans, who
may be familiar to Video Toaster/Flyer users.
VGT received a Gaming license and regulatory approval to sell
the Riverboat Queen only in the State of Louisiana. The product
line was sold in 1993 to Si Redd (founder and former chairman of
International Game Technology which is based in Las Vegas, Nevada,
and is the world's largest supplier of video and mechanical gaming
machines).
