RENO, Nev., Jan. 25, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- GameTech International, Inc., a leading supplier of electronic bingo equipment and video lottery terminals, today announced the successful installation of 250 of its latest portable Wi-Fi electronic bingo device: the Explorer 2(TM) in the Tribal bingo market.

The new Explorer 2(TM) was installed in the First Council Casino Hotel - High Stakes Bingo Hall in Newkirk, Oklahoma on the GameTech EDGE Bingo System(TM) in late January. First Council Casino Hotel is one of the four gaming locations and the flagship property of Otoe Missouria Tribe. The High Stakes Bingo Hall is a newly built addition to their already popular gaming offering. This state-of-the-art facility seats up to 1000 guests complete with projection and Hi-Def LCD bingo flash boards.

The Explorer 2(TM) is GameTech's newest portable Wi-Fi bingo device with enhanced 10" touch screen, 10+ hours of continuous battery life and a new colorful design that is both attractive and rugged enough to withstand the bingo hall environment. The Explorer 2(TM) supports the latest bingo games including Slingo Jokers Wild(TM) and interfaces exclusively with the GameTech EDGE Bingo System(TM).
