Abstract
In one embodiment, on an additional display unit for each gaming machine in a system of gaming machines, a jackpot game is played after each main game on an associated gaming machine. A jackpot control unit, common to all gaming machines, predetermines the jackpot game outcome for each gaming machine. A jackpot win is determined by the jackpot control unit based on a triggering event. The main game and jackpot game may be the spinning of actual or virtual reels, where the resulting symbol combinations determine the award to the player. Because the display for the jackpot symbols may be situated in a separate housing, it can be connected to any gaming machine without modifying the machine.
