Ben Fox is the producer and leader of the Casino Esport Conference and Gameacon. He explains some prejudices around gamers, esports wagering and the casino slot experiences.
Critics of Esport, and Casinos are saying negative things about the casino resort. According to IGD, the bulk of slot players are in the 55 to 65 age group and are known as Baby Boomers. The oldest millennials enter middle age this year and they are aged between 25 and 40.
Millenials spend too much time on video games. They are not interested in slot machines. The average Millennial spends 18 hours using digital media. Playing video game releases dopamine. Dopamine is similar to that released after intravenous injection of the stimulant drugs amphetamine or methylphenidate.
The future of the Casino and Entertainment industry is hinging on the timeless principle that "you give the people what they want and they'll come". The solution to the problem is not as simple as getting them to "see the light" of slots. It would be best to provide the entertainment they already like and monetize that to give an experience that they can enjoy and that we know thrills them.
Millennials are the second-largest generation in the U.S. after Baby Boomers. They got married later in life and have more disposable income. The average gamer is 31 years old and nearly as likely to be a girl or woman as a male. Nolan Bushnell's son Tyler is a professional gamer. He will be at the upcoming Casino Esport Conference. He used to place his Pong game in a tavern and saw people queue to play it. Now, the "blue hair crew" has taken over all the bars and restaurants. It's because the Millenials and future customers make up a large part of any consumer customer-based business.
