1. A remote gaming method comprising:
- establishing a wireless communications link between a mobile gaming device operated by a player and a first gaming terminal, the first gaming terminal generating video animation in an original format when displaying a first game on a display screen;
receiving player control signals by the first gaming terminal from the mobile gaming device to initiate the first game;
detecting a required video animation second format for the mobile gaming device which is different from the original format, wherein the detecting involves transmitting by the mobile gaming device to the first gaming terminal information used by the first gaming terminal to determine whether converting the video animation from the original format to the second format is to be performed by the first gaming terminal or the mobile gaming device;
converting the video animation from the original format to the second format for the mobile gaming device by either the first gaming terminal or the mobile gaming device pursuant to the step of transmitting;
displaying the first game to the player on the mobile gaming device using the second format;
carrying out the first game by the first gaming terminal, including determining a final outcome of the first game and any award for the outcome; and
transmitting signals from the first gaming terminal to the mobile gaming device identifying the final outcome of the first game and the award.
