Sale of AWP manufacturer JPM to Konami is off

This article comes from Highwaygames.com

The much talked about industry sale of the large (and profitable) UK AWP subsidiary of Sega is now off.

It is believed that neither side could agree on the final price, JPM are currently riding high with their Who Wants to be a Millionaire machine which has been a huge success in the UK, with new games recently released for the same cabinet at the recent London Preview.

The fact that Konami did not purchase JPM, may well mean that they are still in the market place, if this is the case then perhaps a likely contender would be Maygay, as they are heavily into video style SWPs (Skill with Prize games) and also working with Kunick on the Online games net technology.

We will watch and wait with interest.
