Gaming system with linked display

摘要

A system for linking gaming devices with a centralized mechanical or video display. The gaming devices each have a local mechanical or video display for displaying game activity. The system includes a controller which receives information from the gaming machines and triggers activation of the centralized display. Where one or more of the gaming devices are operated in a bonus game, the controller may trigger the display of a bonus game on the centralized display, thereby permitting greater visibility of the bonus game on the centralized display than would otherwise be possible from the local display.
