If you love to play slots online as much as we do, you might be surprised to know that some slot games were pretty controversial when they were first released.

You might be wondering how a slot machine could possible be controversial – they’re just games, right? Well, there’s a couple of different reasons, and we’re going to tell you all about them. We’re going to be taking a look at:

–          Public image of companies

–          Licensing issues with slots

–          Controversial technological developments in the slots industry

Marvel Slot Machine Cancellations

One of the most classic examples of slot machines being contraversila is due to issues surrounding public image of a company. Some perfect examples of slot machines victims of this include:

–          The Avengers Slots

–          Electra Slots

–          Captain America Slots

You’ve probably heard of these Marvel franchises, and it shouldn’t be a surprise that a company was inspired by them to create the next best slot machine! However, with slots such as these, it is essential that the companies creating them maintain the franchise’s reputation.  This is one of the key reasons that many media inspired slots are cancelled. Companies are unlikely to disclose the exact reason, but it is likely that there was some form of infringement against the franchise’s ethics and public image. We’ve got a theory for this list – all of these slots were banned in 2017, and in 2017 Disney took over Marvel, the creator of all of these franchises. It probably won’t surprise you to discover that Disney isn’t exactly the face of gambling – we’ll let you figure out the rest!

Technological Controversy

When slots first came about, it was all just mechanisms. There were cogs and wheels that interacted as a mechanism to make physical wheels spin, resulting in the birth of the original slots experience. As you can imagine, people were quite concerned when they found out that their mechanical friends were being converted to digital versions. The idea of video games was non-existent, so this was much stranger at the time than it may seem now. Regardless, most slot machine companies began to focus on turning digital, and it stuck – mechanical slots were a thing of the past. Most people realized this was a good thing – digital slots offered a whole range of positive changes including:

–          The use of electronic buttons, facilitating more control over the game

–          More complex gameplay

–          Electronic music and sound effects

Controversial Slots

Overall, slot companies tend to stay out of trouble – controversy isn’t really something the fun game tends to attract! However, there will always be issues when it comes to movie spin-offs and technological innovation – that’s just life. With virtual reality just around the corner, we wouldn’t be surprised if it sparked a controversial change in slot machine technology in the near future – just remember to stay ahead of the curve!
