Abstract

A game and/or entertainment device, more particularly in the form of a coin operable or token operable gaming machine and/or gambling device with multiple separate display units for presenting information, more particularly game contents and/or game information, wherein at least one of the display units is furnished with a touch panel for inputting control commands by touching. The touch panel is formed continuously over at least one part of each of at least two different display units. By extending the touch panel across the boundary region or intermediate space between two display units, it is possible to achieve a continuously closed off front of the device, despite the use of multiple display units, whereby the structure of the corresponding device wall is simplified and the security against intrusion into the housing at gaps is increased.
