Abstract

A coin operated video game terminal system includes a tournament mode, as well as an option for a user to enter a random draw for each game played. This arrangement acts as an incentive for competitive play, as yell as rewarding users for games played. The system also allows identification and tracking of users which is useful information for the terminal provider. Each terminal cracks games played and money received, and forwards the information to a central computer. Electronic financial tracking of revenue received allows the location operator to access and remove the actual cash received and the location operator is then billed by the terminal provider for his share of revenue received.
