The Big Bang Theory is one of the most popular sitcoms on television today. The show has attracted a huge fan base of video gamers, science fiction fans and comic book readers. So, what better place to premiere the new Big Bang Theory poker machine than at the biggest comic book convention in the world? Recently, Aristocrat took its new Big Bang Theory pokie to Comic-Con International: San Diego.
The game was accompanied by several members of Aristocrat’s Secret Sauce Studios, who spent over two years working on this impressive poker machine. The pokie spent a week on the convention centre floor, and it attracted a great deal of positive attention from visitors. "The producers of the show decided to take the game down to Comic-Con," says Kurt Lawson, Vice President of Secret Sauce Studio.
"Needless to say, it was a popular attraction." After making its debut at Comic Con, the new Big Bang Theory pokie started making the rounds in casinos across Las Vegas. It seems that casino managers heard good things about the game, and decided to get in on the action. The Big Bang Theory is now live at 100 casinos across Nevada, California and Atlantic City.
The Big Bang Theory pokie is yet another branded game from Aristocrat to experience an impressive debut. Last year, Aristocrat’s Walking Dead poker machine become the most pre-ordered game in the history of the company. Aristocrat’s Sons of Anarchy pokie has also made an impressive impact at casinos around the world.
