Bartop and wall-mount fish game cabinets have a smaller footprint than full-size fish tables, but they share the same electronic architecture and are vulnerable to the same cheating methods. The smaller cabinet size creates unique security challenges — less space for anti-cheat hardware, easier access to internal components, and a higher likelihood of being placed in crowded, hard-to-monitor locations.
Space constraints: Bartop and wall-mount cabinets have limited interior space. The Gen2 anti-cheat device is compact enough to fit in the available space — it measures approximately 10x6x3 cm. The device mounts externally on the cabinet side or back, not inside, so interior space is not a concern.
Accessibility concerns: Smaller cabinets are often placed on counters, bars, or wall mounts where the back panel is more accessible to players. The Gen2 device installs on the side or back of the cabinet where it is visible but not easily reached. The tamper-evident mounting ensures that any attempt to remove the device is noticeable.
Installation for wall-mount cabinets: Wall-mount cabinets may not have accessible power outlets nearby. The Gen2 device connects to the machine’s internal power supply. If the machine is hardwired, the device can share the same power connection.
If your bartop or wall-mount fish game cabinet is showing signs of cheating, send me a message with your machine model and a photo of your setup. I will do a quick remote check for free.
