GTI Club – First European Showing 

 The FER Interazar exhibition in Madrid saw the European launch of ‘GTI Club - Supermini Festa’. On show was the deluxe version of the game. The game is the latest incarnation of the classic arcade racer that sees players competing around the streets of various cities in head-to-head racing and also in multiple very unique and fun “mini games”.

The product was such a hit at the show that the first orders were placed even before mass production had started.

Gerald Steinberg of Oasis Retail Services Limited said “When I saw the game being played constantly at the show, it reminded me of the original that I had huge success with. I know this product will be a strong earning title therefore I have ordered the game without income testing”.

John Stergides of Electrocoin commented, “Gerald flew to the exhibition and saw the game.  He can remember the original version that Electrocoin manufactured of 16 years ago and the huge earnings from it.  He has ordered the first two deluxe units from the production line for installation atBelfast International Airport”.

The game will also be shown at the Preview 2010 inLondon and the ENADA Show in Rome.  For more information please contact Electrocoin.
