Konami Gaming Inc. announced leading new releases arriving at the Indian Gaming Tradeshow & Convention in Anaheim, CA, on April 10–11, 2024, aimed at delivering bold entertainment and engagement value to tribal casinos. A slot series that’s shear excitement, Unwooly Riches is among the event’s big showcases, joining many new linked progressives available across Konami’s DIMENSION cabinet line. Konami’s newest large-format machine, DIMENSION 43×3 is also a new arrival at the Indian Gaming Tradeshow, with its 43-inch stacked monitors reaching nearly 9-feet into the air. Top SYNKROS casino systems advancements on the tradeshow floor include an award-winning mobile app, SYNKROS Progressive Management (SPM) floorwide progressive technology, and Gift & Go integration. In addition, Konami’s iGaming team is showcasing dozens of popular Konami slot creations available for online social and real money sites.
“Knowing the distinct creativity, visual appearance, and ingenuity that surround the latest releases, Konami and its customers are entering this year’s Indian Gaming Tradeshow & Convention with particular momentum and excitement. Our Konami team is working closely with casinos to deliver new entertainment value and top technology options to power their floor—both now and long into the future,” Tom Jingoli, executive vice president & chief operating officer at Konami Gaming, said.
With strong hardware performance and game software variety, Konami’s DIMENSION line of slot cabinets continues to achieve results, made further by the release of its big-screen DIMENSION 43×3 in the core for-sale product category. Across every DIMENSION form factor, guests can encounter fresh content such as Charms Full Link, Lucky Honeycomb Fortune, new All Aboard multi-game packs, and BUZZR slots filled with vintage gameshow TV charm. Konami’s Unwooly Riches is the most asked about new slot series, with its imaginative sheep character “Sugar” and goat character “Spice” locking horns in a playful battle to win the player’s favor.
“From unique slot hardware like DIMENSION 43×3 to incredibly eye-catching entertainment like Unwooly Riches, Konami has a wide array of creative game options available now for placement. And this drive toward new innovation is just as apparent across our SYNKROS casino systems technology, with tools to empower casino teams while enhancing guest convenience,” Jay Bertsch, senior vice president & chief commercial officer at Konami Gaming Inc., said.
Konami’s SYNKROS casino management system is providing important advancements to support the future of tribal operators—all available for customers to experience firsthand. SYNKROS Progressive Management (SPM) is a system-based, floor wide progressive jackpot and mystery Bonusing module which can be configured to run on a single machine, bank of machines, casino zones, or even the entire gaming floor. Operators can also take command with the latest features in Konami’s Konetic employee mobile application, including its new Patron and Finder modules. In addition, SYNKROS is now offering integration with Gift & Go, for on-demand player loyalty gifts selected digitally by the patron and shipped directly to their home address.
To equip tribal operators for omni-channel delivery of traditional land-based gaming and online gaming, Konami is pushing more proven land-based content to its online game library, through its owned remote gaming server (RGS), for robust HTML5 delivery—compatible across smartphones, tablets, and desktop devices. The company’s iGaming team is available throughout show hours to share how player-favorite Konami series like All Aboard and China shores are available for online social and real-money sites.

Proposal for Lake of the Ozarks Casino will Appear on the November Ballot
![proposal-for-lake-of-the-ozarks-casino-will-appear-on-the-november-ballot](https://recentslotreleases.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/139478-proposal-for-lake-of-the-ozarks-casino-will-appear-on-the-november-ballot.jpg)
Missourians will get to vote on whether to authorize a casino at the Lake of the Ozarks.
Backers of a casino in the popular tourist destination need to go to statewide voters to build the casino, because the Missouri Constitution only authorizes those gaming facilities on the Missouri and Mississippi rivers.
Secretary of State Jay Ashcroft initially rejected putting the ballot item before voters, contending that the measure didn’t collect enough signatures in the required six out of eight congressional districts. Ashcroft found that the plan did receive the necessary signatures in five districts but fell short in Missouri’s 2nd Congressional District.
Cole County Judge Daniel Green ruled on Friday that proponents of the casino ballot item did actually gather enough signatures in the 2nd District, which encompasses parts of St. Louis, St. Charles and Warren counties, and all of Franklin County. He then ordered Ashcroft to place the proposal on the Nov. 5 ballot.
Ashcroft spokesman JoDonn Chaney said the GOP statewide official does not plan on appealing Green’s ruling.
“During the initiative petition review process local election authorities were tasked with checking well over 1 million signatures,” Chaney said in an email. “From their reporting, the secretary of state’s office determined the Osage River Gaming petition was just short of the required signature count for ballot certification. After a challenge by the petitioner it was determined that enough additional signatures could be verified to place the petition on the November ballot.”
Backers of the plan to build the Lake of the Ozarks casino say the facility will spur 500 construction jobs and create 700 to 800 permanent jobs. State revenue from the casino would go toward education programs, with a specific emphasis on early child literacy efforts.
Missourians are also to vote on a measure legalizing sports betting, though opponents of that proposal filed a lawsuit contending that it didn’t get enough signatures in six out of eight districts.
