Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Organization, Consolidation, Basis of Presentation, Business Description and Accounting Policies [Text Block]	Note 1. Description of Business and Significant Accounting Policies
	The business activities of the Company entail the owning and leasing of electronic gaming machines (EGMs) placed in premier hotels and other venues in Cambodia and the Philippines, the development and operation of gaming establishments under the Dreamworld brand in select emerging markets in the Indo-China region and the design, manufacture and distribution of gaming chips and plaques under the Dolphin brand to major casinos primarily in Southeast Asia and Australia.
	The Company owned and operated a casino under the Dreamworld name in the Pailin Province of Cambodia. In June 2014, the Company ceased operations of the casino in Pailin and, on June 20, 2014, entered into an agreement to sell 100% of the issued share capital of Dreamworld Leisure (Pailin) Limited, a wholly-owned Cambodian subsidiary of the Company established for the purpose of owning and operating the casino. In addition, the Company was previously engaged in the design, manufacture and distribution of other, non-gaming plastic products, primarily for the automotive industry. These operations were sold on March 28, 2013. All related historical revenues and expenses for the casino in Pailin and the non-gaming plastic products operations have been reclassified as discontinued operations. The accounting policies of these discontinued operations are consistent with the Company’s policies for the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
	Basis of Presentation
	These consolidated financial statements are prepared pursuant to generally accepted accounting principles in the United States.
	The Company effected a 1-for-4 reverse stock split of its common shares as of February 26, 2015. All historical share amounts and share price information presented in the financial statements and notes have been proportionally adjusted to reflect the impact of this reverse stock split, including but not limited to basic and diluted weighted-average shares issued and outstanding.
	Principles of Consolidation
	These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Entertainment Gaming Asia Inc. and all its subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Certain prior period amounts in the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto have been reclassified to conform to the current period's presentation.
	Use of Estimates
	The Company is required to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that it believes are reasonable based on its historical experience, contract terms, observance of known trends in the Company and the industry as a whole, and information available from other outside sources. These estimates affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. On a regular basis, the Company evaluates its estimates, including those related to revenue recognition, product returns, long-lived assets, inventory obsolescence, stock-based compensation, income taxes, bad debts, warranty obligations, long-term contracts, contingencies and litigation. Actual results may differ from those estimates.
	Discontinued Operations
	A discontinued operation is a component of an entity that either has been disposed of, or that is classified as held for sale, and (i) represents a separate major line of business or geographical area of operations; and (ii) is a part of a single coordinated plan to dispose of a separate major line of business or geographical area of operations; or (iii) is a subsidiary acquired exclusively with a view to resale.
	Non-current assets held for discontinued operations are carried at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell. Any gain or loss from disposal of a business, together with the results of these operations until the date of disposal, is reported separately as discontinued operations. The financial information of discontinued operations is excluded from the respective captions in the Company's consolidated statements of comprehensive income and related notes for all years presented.
	Cash and Cash Equivalents
	All highly-liquid instruments with original maturities of three months or less are considered cash equivalents. The Company places its cash and temporary investments with financial institutions. As of December 31, 2014, the Company had deposits with financial institutions in excess of Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) insured limits by approximately $17.1 million.
	Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
	Accounts receivable are stated at face value less any allowances for doubtful accounts. Allowances for doubtful accounts are maintained at levels determined by Company management to adequately provide for uncollectible amounts. In determining the estimated uncollectable amounts, the Company evaluates a combination of factors, including, but not limited to, activity in the related market, financial condition of customers, specific customer collection experience and history of write-offs and collections. Interest income is imposed on overdue accounts receivable after the Company evaluates a combination of factors, including but not limited to, customer collection experiences, customer relationships and contract terms. Accounts receivable balances are written off after all collection efforts have been exhausted.
	Inventories
	Inventories are stated at the lower of cost, determined using the first-in, first-out method, or market. Cost elements included in work-in-process and finished goods include raw materials, direct labor and manufacturing overheads. Inventories included a lower of cost or market (LCM) write-down of approximately $87,000 and $27,000 for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.
	Long-Lived Assets
	The Company accounts for impairment of long-lived assets in accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) ASC 360, Property, Plant and Equipment. Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. In such instances, the Company estimates the undiscounted future cash flows that result from the use of the asset and its ultimate disposition. If the sum of the undiscounted cash flows is less than the carrying value, the Company recognizes an impairment loss, measured as the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value of the asset, determined principally using discounted cash flows. For the year ended December 31, 2014, the Company recorded an impairment loss of approximately $121,000 primarily related to the write-off of obsolete plant and machinery. For the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company recorded an impairment loss of approximately $75,000 primarily related to the write-off of the non-performing and non-redeployable EGMs and systems.
	Prepaids, Deposits and Other Assets
	Prepaids, deposits and other assets consist primarily of prepaid leases, prepaid value-added taxes in foreign countries, prepayments to suppliers, rental and utilities and other deposits.
	Gaming Equipment
	Gaming equipment consists primarily of EGMs and systems. Gaming equipment is stated at cost. The Company depreciates new gaming equipment over a five-year useful life and depreciates refurbished gaming equipment over a three-year useful life once placed in service. Depreciation of gaming equipment of approximately $2.9 million and $3.7 million was included in cost of gaming operations in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.
	Property and Equipment
	Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the useful lives of the assets currently estimated to be three to ten years, which in the case of leasehold improvements, is limited to the life of the lease and throughout the renewal period as long as renewal is reasonably assured.
	The Company capitalizes certain direct and incremental costs related to the design and construction, project payroll costs and applicable portions of interest incurred for potential projects in property and equipment.
	Depreciation of property and equipment of approximately $608,000 and $460,000 was recorded in the cost of gaming operations in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.
	Depreciation of property and equipment of approximately $810,000 and $323,000 was included in cost of gaming products in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.
	Goodwill and Intangible Assets, Including Casino Contracts
	Intangible assets consist of patents, trademarks, technical know-how, a gaming operation agreement, casino contracts and goodwill. Intangible assets other than goodwill are amortized on the straight-line basis over the period of time the asset is expected to contribute directly or indirectly to future cash flows, which ranges from four to ten years. The straight-line amortization method is utilized because the Company believes there is no more reliably determinable method of reflecting the pattern for which the economic benefits of the intangible assets are consumed or otherwise used.
	Amortization expenses related to casino contracts were approximately $2.4 million and 2.5 million for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Amortization expenses related to other gaming related intangibles were approximately $252,000 for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013. The amounts were accounted for as cost of gaming operations in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income. Amortization expenses related to technical know-how were approximately $26,000 for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013. The amounts were accounted for as cost of gaming products in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income. Amortization expenses related to patents and trademarks were approximately $24,000 for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013. The amounts were accounted for as selling, general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income.
	The Company measures and tests finite-lived intangibles for impairment when there are indicators of impairment in accordance with ASC 360-10-05, Property, Plant and Equipment.
	The Company measures and tests goodwill for impairment, at least annually in accordance with ASC 350-10-05, Intangibles — Goodwill and Other.
	Impairment testing for goodwill and other intangibles requires judgment, including the identification of reporting units, allocation of related goodwill, assignment of corporate shared assets and liabilities to reporting units, estimated future cash flows and determinations of fair values. While the Company believes its estimates of future revenues and cash flows are reasonable, different assumptions could materially affect the assessment of useful lives, recoverability and fair values. No impairment charges relating to intangible assets were recorded for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013.
	Additional Paid-In-Capital
	For the year ended December, 31, 2014, the increase in additional paid-in-capital account mainly represented issuance of non-cash stock option compensation and the net cash proceeds received from the Company’s subscription rights offering.
	Litigation and Other Contingencies
	In the performance of its ordinary course of business operations, the Company is subject to risks of various legal matters, litigation and claims of various types. The Company has regular litigation reviews, including updates from corporate and outside counsel, to assess the need for accounting recognition or disclosure of these contingencies. The status of a significant claim is summarized in Note 17.
	ASC 450, Contingencies, requires that liabilities for contingencies be recorded when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and that the amount can be reasonably estimated. Significant management judgment is required related to contingent liabilities and the outcome of litigation because both are difficult to predict. For a contingency for which an unfavorable outcome is reasonably possible and which is significant, the Company discloses the nature of the contingency and, when feasible, an estimate of the possible loss.
	Revenue Recognition
	The Company recognizes revenue when all of the following have been satisfied:
		·	Persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists;
		·	The price to the customer is fixed and determinable;
		·	Delivery has occurred and any acceptance terms have been fulfilled;
		·	No significant contractual obligations remain; and
		·	Collection is reasonably assured.
	Gaming Revenue and Promotional Allowances
	The Company earns recurring gaming revenue from its gaming operations.
	For slot operations, the Company earns recurring gaming revenue by providing customers with EGMs and casino management systems which track game performance and provide statistics on installed EGMs owned by the Company and leased to venue owners. Revenues are recognized on the contractual terms of the slot agreements between the Company and the venue owners and are based on the Company’s share of net winnings and reimbursement of expenses, net of customer incentives and commitment fees.
	Revenues are recognized as earned unless collection is not reasonably assured, in which case revenues are recognized when the payment for net winnings is received. All slot operations revenues were recognized as earned during the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013.
	Commitment fees paid to the venue operators relating to contract amendments which are not recoverable from daily net win are capitalized as assets and amortized as a reduction of revenue over the term of the amended contracts. The Company had commitment fee balances related to contract amendments of approximately $126,000 and $234,000 as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.
	For the discontinued casino operations, the Company’s revenues are measured by the aggregate net difference between gaming wins and losses, with liabilities recognized for funds deposited by customers before gaming play occurs and for chips in their possession, if any. Cash discounts, other cash incentives related to casino play and commissions rebated through junkets or tour guides, if any, to customers are recorded as a reduction to casino revenue. Consequently, the Company’s casino revenues are reduced by discounts and commissions.
	The Company does not accrue jackpot liabilities for its slot machine base and progressive jackpots as regulations do not prohibit removal of gaming machines from the gaming floor without payment of the jackpots.
	Promotional allowances represent goods and services, which would be accounted for as revenue if sold, that a casino gives to customers as an inducement to gamble at that establishment. Such goods and services include food and beverages. The Company includes the retail value of promotional allowances in gross revenues and deducts it from gross revenues to reach net revenues on the face of the consolidated statements of comprehensive income.
	The Company also earned recurring gaming revenue through leasing table game equipment and providing casino management services to gaming operators within its casino property. Revenues from gaming table leasing arrangements are recognized as earned over the contractual terms of the arrangement between the Company and the gaming promoters and are included in discontinued operations.
	Gaming Products Sales
	The Company recognizes revenue from the sale of its gaming products and accessories to end users upon shipment against customer contracts or purchase orders.
	Stock-Based Compensation
	Under the fair value recognition provisions of ASC 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation, the Company recognizes stock-based compensation expenses for all service-based awards to employees and non-employee directors with graded vesting schedules on the straight-line basis over the requisite service period for the entire award. Estimates are revised if subsequent information indicates that forfeitures will differ from previous estimates, and the cumulative effect on compensation cost of a change in the estimated forfeitures is recognized in the period of the change. For non-employee awards, the Company remeasures compensation cost each period until the service condition is complete and recognizes compensation cost on the straight-line basis over the requisite service period. Option valuation models require the input of highly subjective assumptions, and changes in the assumptions used can materially affect the fair value estimates. Judgment is required in estimating stock price volatility, forfeiture rates, expected dividends, and expected terms that options remain outstanding. For restricted stock awards with performance conditions, the Company evaluates if performance conditions are probable in each reporting period. The compensation expense of restricted awards is recognized ratably over the implicit service period if achieving performance conditions is probable. Cumulative catch-up adjustments are required in the event of changes in assessment of probability. See Note 12 for additional information relating to stock-based compensation assumptions. Stock-based compensation expenses totaled approximately $160,000 and $789,000 for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.
	Employee Defined Contribution Plan
	The Company operates a mandatory provident fund scheme, the MPF Scheme, under the Mandatory Provident Fund Schemes Ordinance for its employees in Hong Kong. The assets of the MPF Scheme are held separately from those of the Company in an independently administered fund. Contributions are made based on a percentage of the employees’ basic salaries and are expensed as and when the contributions fall due. The Company has no legal obligation for the benefits beyond the contributions. The total amounts of such employer contributions, which were expensed as incurred, were approximately $162,000 and $75,000 for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.
	Product Development
Product development expenses are charged to expense as incurred. Employee-related costs associated with product development are included in product development expenses. Product development expenses were approximately $387,000 and $261,000 for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.
Leases
Leases are classified at the inception date as either a capital lease or an operating lease. A lease is a capital lease if any of the following conditions exists:
	·	Ownership is transferred to the lessee by the end of the lease term;
	·	There is a bargain purchase option;
	·	The lease term is at least 75% of the property’s estimated remaining economic life; or
	·	The present value of the minimum lease payments at the beginning of the lease term is 90% or more of the fair value of the leased property to the lessor at the inception date.
A capital lease is accounted for as if there was an acquisition of an asset and an incurrence of an obligation at the inception of the lease. All other leases are accounted for as operating leases wherein rental payments are expensed as incurred.
Income Taxes
The Company is subject to income taxes in the United States (including federal and state) and several foreign jurisdictions in which it operates. Deferred income tax balances reflect the effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax basis and are stated at enacted tax rates expected to be in effect when taxes are actually paid or recovered. ASC 740, Income Taxes, requires that deferred tax assets be evaluated for future realization and reduced by a valuation allowance to the extent the Company believes a portion will not be realized. The Company considers many factors when assessing the likelihood of future realization of its deferred tax assets, including its recent cumulative earnings experience and expectations of future taxable income by taxing jurisdiction, the carry-forward periods available to the Company for tax reporting purposes, and other relevant factors.
The Company accounts for uncertain tax positions in accordance with ASC 740, which contains a two-step approach to recognizing and measuring uncertain tax positions. The first step is to evaluate the tax position for recognition by determining if the weight of available evidence indicates it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained on audit, including resolution of related appeals or litigation processes, if any. The second step is to measure the tax benefit as the largest amount which is more than 50% likely to be realized upon ultimate settlement. The Company considers many factors when evaluating and estimating its tax positions and tax benefits, which may require periodic adjustments and which may not accurately anticipate actual outcomes. The Company recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits in the provision for income taxes in the statements of comprehensive income.
On December 31, 2010, the Company effected a Quasi-Reorganization. As of that date, the Company’s deferred taxes were reported in conformity with applicable income tax accounting standards described above, net of applicable valuation allowances. Deferred tax assets and liabilities were recognized for differences between the assigned values and the tax basis of the recognized assets and liabilities with corresponding valuation allowances as appropriate. In accordance with the Quasi-Reorganization requirements, pre-existing tax benefits realized subsequent to the Quasi-Reorganization are recorded directly in equity.
Loss per Share
Basic loss per share is computed by dividing the reported net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock and shares issuable from stock options and restricted shares during the period. The computation of diluted loss per share excludes the impact of stock options and restricted shares that are anti-dilutive. There is no difference in diluted loss per share from basic loss per share as the assumed exercise of common stock equivalents would have an anti-dilutive effect due to losses.
Foreign Currency Translations and Transactions
The functional currency of the Company’s international subsidiaries, except for its operations in Cambodia whose functional currency is the U.S. dollar, is generally the local currency. For these subsidiaries, the Company translates the assets and liabilities at exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date and income and expense accounts at average exchange rates during the year. Resulting currency translation adjustments are recorded directly to accumulated other comprehensive income within stockholders’ equity. Gains and losses resulting from transactions in non-functional currencies are recorded in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income.
Below is a summary of closing exchange rates as of December 31, 2014 and 2013 and average exchange rates for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

Fair Value Measurements
Fair value is defined under ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value under ASC 820 must maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The standard establishes a fair value hierarchy based on three levels of input, of which the first two are considered observable and the last unobservable.
	·	Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. These are typically obtained from real-time quotes for transactions in active exchange markets involving identical assets.
	·	Level 2 — Input, other than quoted prices included within Level 1, which are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These are typically obtained from readily-available pricing sources for comparable instruments.
	·	Level 3 — Unobservable input, where there is little or no market activity for the asset or liability. This input reflects the reporting entity’s own assumptions of the data that participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, based on the best information available under the circumstances.
As of December 31, 2014, the fair values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate carrying values due to the short maturity of these items.
Defined Benefit Pension Plan
The Company provides pension benefits to all regular full-time employees through a defined benefit plan. A defined benefit plan is a pension plan that defines an amount of pension benefit that an employee will receive on retirement, usually dependent on one or more factors such as age, years of service and salary.
The defined benefit obligation is calculated annually by independent actuaries using the projected unit credit method. The present value of the defined benefit obligation is determined by discounting the estimated future cash outflows using interest rates of high quality corporate bonds that are denominated in the currency in which the benefits will be paid and that have terms to maturity approximating to the terms of the related pension liability.
The accounting guidance related to employers’ accounting for defined benefit pension plan requires recognition in the balance sheet of the present value of the defined benefit obligation at the reporting date, together with adjustments for unrecognized actuarial gains or losses and past service costs or credits in other comprehensive income.
We recorded a decrease to equity through other comprehensive income of approximately $12,000 for the year ended December 31, 2014 and an increase to equity through other comprehensive income of approximately $37,000 for the year ended December 31, 2013.
Asset Retirement Obligations
Asset retirement obligations are legal obligations associated with the retirement of long-lived assets resulting from the acquisition, construction, development and/or normal use of the underlying assets. Recognition of a liability for an asset retirement obligation is required in the period in which it is incurred at its estimated fair value. The associated asset retirement costs are capitalized as part of the carrying amount of the underlying asset and depreciated over the estimated useful life of the asset. The liability is accreted through charges to operating expenses. If the asset retirement obligation is settled for other than the carrying amount of the liability, we recognize a gain or loss on settlement.
We record all asset retirement obligations for which we have legal obligations to remove all installation works and reinstate the manufacturing facilities to its original state at estimated fair value. For the year ended December 31, 2014, we recognized approximately $27,000 asset retirement obligation operating costs related to accretion of the liabilities and depreciation of the assets.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In July 2013, FASB issued ASU No. 2013-11 ("ASU 2013-11"), Presentation of An Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Existed, which intends to reduce diversity in practice by providing guidance on the presentation of unrecognized tax benefits. An entity is required to present unrecognized tax benefits as a decrease in a net operating loss, similar tax loss or tax credit carryforward if certain criteria are met. The determination of whether a deferred tax asset is available is based on the unrecognized tax benefit and the deferred tax asset that exists at the reporting date and presumes disallowance of the tax position at the reporting date. For public entities, the amendments are effective prospectively for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2013, with early adoption permitted. We adopted ASU 2013-11 beginning January 1, 2014 and it did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
In April 2014, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-08 (ASU 2014-08) “Presentation of Financial Statements (Topic 205) and Property, Plant, and Equipment (Topic 360): Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity." ASU 2014-08 raises the threshold for a disposal to qualify as a discontinued operation and requires new disclosures of both discontinued operations and certain other disposals that do not meet the definition of a discontinued operation. It is effective for annual periods beginning on or after December 15, 2014. Early adoption is permitted but only for disposals that have not been reported in financial statements previously issued. We do not expect the impact of the adoption of ASU 2014-08 to be material to our consolidated financial statements.
In May 2014, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09 (ASU 2014-09) "Revenue from Contracts with Customers." ASU 2014-09 supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in “Revenue Recognition (Topic 605)”, and requires entities to recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period. Early adoption is not permitted. We are currently in the process of evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2014-09 on our consolidated financial statements.

Segment Reporting Disclosure [Text Block]	Note 2. Segments
	The Company currently conducts business in two operating segments: (i) gaming operations, which include slot participation operations; and (ii) gaming products, which consist of the design, manufacture and distribution of gaming chips and plaques. The Company owned and operated a casino in the Pailin Province of Cambodia. In June 2014, the Company ceased operations of the casino and entered into an agreement to sell 100% of the issued capital shares of Dreamworld Leisure (Pailin) Limited, a wholly-owned Cambodian subsidiary of the Company established for the purpose of owning and operating the casino. The Company was also engaged in the design, manufacture and distribution of other non-gaming plastic products, primarily for the automotive industry. These operations were sold on March 28, 2013. All the related historical revenues and expenses for the casino in Pailin and non-gaming plastic products operations have been reclassified as discontinued operations. The accounting policies of these discontinued operations are consistent with the Company’s policies for the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

Disclosure of Compensation Related Costs, Share-based Payments [Text Block]	Note 12.	Stock-Based Compensation
	The Company effected a 1-for-4 reverse stock split of its common shares as of February 26, 2015. All historical share amounts and share price information presented below have been proportionally adjusted to reflect the impact of this reverse split.
	Options
	At the annual shareholders meeting held on September 8, 2008, a new stock option plan, or the 2008 Stock Incentive Plan, was voted on and became effective on January 1, 2009, which replaced two previous plans, the Amended and Restated 1999 Stock Option Plan and the Amended and Restated 1999 Directors’ Stock Option Plan, thereby terminating both of the 1999 stock option plans on December 31, 2008.
	The 2008 Plan allows for incentive awards to eligible recipients consisting of:
	·	Options to purchase shares of common stock that qualify as incentive stock options within the meaning of the Internal Revenue Code;
	·	Non-statutory stock options that do not qualify as incentive options;
	·	Restricted stock awards; and
	·	Performance stock awards which are subject to future achievement of performance criteria or free of any performance or vesting.
	The maximum number of shares reserved for issuance under the 2008 Plan was originally 312,500 shares, and in July 2010 the Company’s shareholders approved an increase in the number of shares reserved for issuance to 625,000 shares. At the annual shareholders meeting held on July 13, 2012, the Company’s shareholders approved a further increase in the number of shares reserved for issuance to 937,500 shares. At the annual shareholders meeting held on December 12, 2014, the Company’s shareholders approved a further increase in the number of shares reserved for issuance to 1,250,000 shares. The exercise price shall not be less than 100% of the fair market value of one share of common stock on the date of grant, unless the participant owns more than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or any parent or subsidiary corporation of the Company, in which case the exercise price shall then be 110% of the fair market value. The outstanding stock options generally vest over three years and have ten-year contractual terms.
	During the year ended December 31, 2014, stock options for the purchase of 56,250 shares of common stock were granted with a weighted average exercise price of $4.84 and weighted average fair value of $2.28 (2013: $2.76) per share and will vest from six-month and one day to three-year periods. During the year ended December 31, 2014, 23,750 shares of restricted stock awards with a fair value of $4.84 per share were issued. The shares of restricted stock shall vest, subject to and upon the recipient’s achievement of key operational and financial performance milestones. For restricted stock awards with performance conditions, the Company evaluates if performance conditions are probable in each reporting period. The compensation expense of restricted awards is recognized ratably over the implicit service period if achieving performance conditions is probable. Cumulative catch-up adjustments are required in the event of any changes in the assessment of probabilities.
	During the year ended December 31, 2014, there was no exercise of outstanding stock options.
	Prior to January 1, 2009, the Company had two stock options plans, the Amended and Restated 1999 Stock Option Plan and the Amended and Restated 1999 Directors’ Stock Option Plan, through which 937,500 shares and 18,750 shares were authorized, respectively. Both the previous stock option plans expired on December 31, 2008; however, options granted under these previous plans that were outstanding as of the date of termination remain outstanding and subject to termination according to their terms.
	As of December 31, 2014, stock options for the purchase of 229,620 shares and 5,001 shares of common stock, respectively, were outstanding in relation to the Amended and Restated 1999 Stock Option Plan and the Amended and Restated 1999 Director’s Stock Option Plan.
	As of December 31, 2014, stock options for the purchase of 550,599 shares of common stock were outstanding under the 2008 plan.
	As of December 31, 2014, stock options for the purchase of 727,949 shares of common stock were exercisable with a weighted average exercise price of $8.14, a weighted average fair value of $3.50 and an aggregate intrinsic value of approximately $46,000. The total fair value of shares vested during the year ended December 31, 2014 was approximately $411,000. As of December 31, 2014, an aggregate of 57,271 options granted under all plans were subject to vesting with a total compensation cost of approximately $89,000. The amount is expected to be recognized over 1.38 years.
	A summary of all current and expired plans as of December 31, 2014 and 2013 and changes during the years then ended is presented in the following tables.

	Recognition and Measurement
	The fair value of each stock-based award to employees and non-employee directors is estimated on the measurement date which generally is the grant date while awards to non-employees are measured at the earlier of the performance commitment date or the service completion date using the Black-Scholes-Merton option-pricing model. The grant date for stock-based awards with subjective performance condition does not occur until the earlier of the vesting date or when the discretionary feature has lapsed. Option valuation models require the input of highly subjective assumptions, and changes in assumptions used can materially affect the fair value estimates. The Company estimates the expected life of the award by taking into consideration the vesting period, contractual term, historical exercise data, expected volatility, blackout periods and other relevant factors. Volatility is estimated by evaluating the Company’s historical volatility data. The risk-free interest rate on the measurement date is based on U.S. Treasury constant maturity rates for a period approximating the expected life of the award. The Company historically has not paid dividends and it does not expect to pay dividends in the foreseeable future and, therefore, the expected dividend rate is zero.

For stock-based compensation accrued to employees and non-employee directors, the Company recognizes stock-based compensation expense for all service-based awards with graded vesting schedules on the straight-line basis over the requisite service period for the entire award. Initial accruals of compensation expense are based on the estimated number of shares for which requisite service is expected to be rendered. Estimates are revised if subsequent information indicates that forfeitures will differ from previous estimates and the cumulative effect on compensation cost of a change in the estimated forfeitures is recognized in the period of the change.
For non-employee awards, the Company re-measures compensation cost each period until the service condition is complete and recognizes compensation cost on the straight-line basis over the requisite service period.
The Company estimates forfeitures and recognizes compensation cost only for those awards expected to vest assuming all awards would vest and reverses recognized compensation cost for forfeited awards when the awards are actually forfeited.
For awards with service conditions and graded vesting that were granted prior to the adoption of ASC 718, the Company estimates the requisite service period and the number of shares expected to vest, and recognizes compensation expense for each tranche on the straight-line basis over the estimated requisite service period.

Long Lived Assets [Abstract]
Disclosure Of Long Lived Assets Disclosure [Text Block]	Note 13.          Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
	The Company reviews long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. In such instance, the Company estimates the undiscounted future cash flows (excluding interest) resulting from the use of the asset and its ultimate disposition. If the sum of the undiscounted cash flows (excluding interest) is less than the carrying value, the Company recognizes an impairment loss, measured as the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value of the assets.
	For the year ended December 31, 2014, the Company recorded an impairment charge of approximately $121,000 primarily related to a write-down of obsolete plant and machinery.
	For the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company recorded an impairment charge of approximately $75,000 primarily related to the write-down of non-performing and non-redeployable EGMs and systems.

	Domestic loss decreased approximately $4.9 million to approximately $3.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2014 compared to approximately $8.1 million in the prior year primarily as a result of a take up of an intercompany expense for the sale of Dolphin Australia in 2013. International income from continuing operations decreased approximately $6.2 million to approximately $700,000 for the year ended December 31, 2014 compared to approximately $6.9 million in the prior year mainly as a result of a write-off of an intercompany receivable from Dreamworld Casino (Pailin).

	Domestic operating loss carryforwards were approximately $179.1 million and $174.2 million for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, which are subject to limitations under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code. These domestic operating losses began to expire in 2018. The Company expects to utilize the $179.1 million domestic operating loss to offset against corporate income tax payable in the United States, if the domestic operating loss remains unexpired at the time when the Company is subject to corporate income tax in the United States. Operating loss carryforwards of foreign subsidiaries were approximately $7.8 million and $4.6 million, respectively for the years ended December, 31, 2014 and 2013. The Company’s net operating losses have been fully reserved. The foreign operating losses for Hong Kong can be carried forward indefinitely.
	As of December 31, 2014, there were valuation allowances of approximately $61.5 million and $5.7 million relating to pre-Quasi-Reorganization and post-Quasi-Reorganization periods, respectively. Valuation allowances included approximately $59.0 million for which subsequently recognized tax benefits will be credited directly to additional paid-in capital. Valuation allowances were provided on the domestic and foreign operating loss carry forwards and other deferred tax assets because management believes these assets did not meet the “more likely than not” criteria for recognition under ASC 740.
	Undistributed earnings of the Company’s foreign subsidiary amounted to approximately $20.8 million as of December 31, 2014. Those earnings were considered to be permanently reinvested; accordingly, no provision for withholding taxes has been provided thereon. Upon repatriation of those earnings, in the form of dividends or otherwise, the Company would be subject to both U.S. income taxes (subject to an adjustment for foreign tax credits) and withholding taxes payable to the various foreign countries. Determination of the amount of unrecognized deferred U.S. income tax liability is not practicable due to the complexities associated with its hypothetical calculation; however, unrecognized foreign tax credit carryforwards would be available to reduce some portion of the U.S. liability. Withholding taxes of approximately $2.9 million would be payable upon remittance of all previously unremitted earnings as of December 31, 2014.
	A reconciliation of the beginning and ending amounts of unrecognized tax benefits consisted of the following:
	(amounts in thousands)
	Balance at January 1, 2013		$	3,673
	Additions based on tax positions related to the current year			430
	Reductions for tax positions of prior years			-82
	Balance at December 31, 2013		$	4,021
	Additions based on tax positions related to the current year			43
	Reductions for tax positions of prior years			-3
	Balance at December 31, 2014		$	4,061
	The amount of uncertain tax benefits as of December 31, 2014 that would affect the effective income tax rate if recognized is approximately $270,000. It is possible that the amount of unrecognized tax benefits will change in the next twelve months, however, an estimate of the range of the possible changes cannot be made at this time.
	The Company recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits in the provision for income taxes in the statements of comprehensive income. During the year ended December 31, 2014, the Company recorded interest and penalties of approximately $68,000. As of December 31, 2014, the Company had interest and penalties of approximately $373,000 accrued in the consolidated balance sheet.
	The Company has been subjected to income tax examinations by tax authorities in jurisdictions in which it operates. During the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2012, the United States Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) conducted an audit of the Company’s 2008 and 2009 tax returns in the United States. On January 23, 2013, the IRS formally notified the Company that it had completed the review of the examination of the above-mentioned years with no changes to the Company’s tax position.
	The Company’s 2009 to 2013 Australian income tax returns remain open to examination by the Australian Taxation Office. The Company’s 2010 to 2013 Cambodian income tax returns remain open to examination by the General Department of Taxation. The Company’s 2011 to 2014 Philippines income tax returns remain open to examination by the Philippines Bureau of Internal Revenue. The Company’s 2007 to 2014 Hong Kong income tax returns remain open to examination by the Hong Kong Inland Revenue Department

Discontinued Operations and Disposal Groups [Abstract]
Disposal Groups, Including Discontinued Operations, Disclosure [Text Block]	Note 16.	Discontinued Operations
	From July 2006 until March 2013, the Company conducted the development, manufacture and sale of gaming chips and plaques from its subsidiary, Dolphin Australia. It also conducted the development, manufacture and sale of non-gaming plastic products for a number of industries, including the automotive industry, from the Melbourne facility.
	On February 22, 2013, the Company entered into a share sale agreement with the then general manager of the Dolphin Australia operations, pursuant to which it agreed to sell him the portion of its business dedicated to the non-gaming plastic products, mainly automotive parts. The sale was completed on March 28, 2013. In connection with the sale of non-gaming operations, the Company relocated its gaming products operations, which included gaming chips and plaques, from Melbourne, Australia to Hong Kong. Commercial production in the new facility commenced in May 2013.
	Prior to the completion of the sale, the Company transferred out of Dolphin Australia to Dolphin Hong Kong, both of which are subsidiaries wholly-owned by the Company, all inventory on hand and all assets and operations relating to the Company’s gaming chips and plaques operations, including all trademarks, patent rights and other intellectual property.
	The purchase price received pursuant to the share sale agreement was $350,000 Australian. The Company also agreed to assume Dolphin Australia’s liabilities for (i) severance under Australian labor laws for those employees to be terminated by Dolphin Australia as part of the transactions for approximately $750,000, (ii) the lease for the Melbourne facility through the end of its present term expiring in January 2014, net of sub-lease income of approximately $350,000, and (iii) all Dolphin Australia payables, net of receivables, relating to both gaming and non-gaming operations up to March 28, 2013.
	The buyer owed the Company $1.1 million for the settlement of working capital related to the sale of the non-gaming Dolphin assets. As of December 31, 2014, the outstanding balance had been fully settled.
	As part of the sale transaction, the Company also agreed to grant Dolphin Australia a non-transferable, substantially royalty-free license to utilize certain trademarks and patent rights in connection with Dolphin Australia’s manufacture and sale of plastic products for the non-gaming industries.
	From May 2012 until June 2014, the Company operated Dreamworld Casino (Pailin), a casino in the Pailin Province of Cambodia. Dreamworld Casino (Pailin) was constructed on land leased from a local land owner and, in consideration, the land owner was entitled to receive monthly a rental fee in the amount of $5,000 and 20% of the profit before depreciation (the total gross revenue of the casino less any payouts paid to customers, operating expenses, and gaming and non-gaming taxes on the casino’s revenue). The initial lease term was 20 years, commencing in September 2011 and was subject to renewal by the parties in writing.
	In June 2014, the Company ceased operations of Dreamworld Casino (Pailin). On June 20, 2014, the Company entered into an agreement to sell 100% of the issued capital shares of Dreamworld Leisure (Pailin) Limited, or DWP, a wholly-owned Cambodian subsidiary of the Company established for the purposes of owning and operating Dreamworld Casino (Pailin), to a local Cambodian individual. In connection with the sale of the issued capital shares of DWP, on June 20, 2014 the Company and its partner in the operations entered into an agreement to terminate the previous agreements with the partner and all future obligations thereunder including future lease payments owed by the Company.
	The sale included all assets of DWP with the exception of all EGMs, certain surveillance equipment and other assets excluded in the agreement and prohibits any use of the Dreamworld brand name by the buyer. Total consideration to be paid to the Company by the buyer was to be $500,000, of which $100,000 was paid at the time of entering the agreement and the balance to be paid in sixteen $25,000 monthly installments commencing within one month of the signed agreement. The parties closed the sale transaction in October 2014. Subsequently, the related parties agreed to amend the agreement to reduce the total consideration to be paid to $363,000, which has since been paid in full. The Company recognized a gain of approximately $90,000 on disposal of the entity in the year ended December 31, 2014.
	The Company had recorded an impairment charge of approximately $2.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2013 related to the Dreamworld Casino (Pailin) facility and gaming assets. The impairment charge represented the entire capital expenditure incurred by the Company for the property as of December 31, 2013, with the exception of those assets that the Company believed could be redeployed to other existing properties.

	The Company is required to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that it believes are reasonable based on its historical experience, contract terms, observance of known trends in the Company and the industry as a whole, and information available from other outside sources. These estimates affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. On a regular basis, the Company evaluates its estimates, including those related to revenue recognition, product returns, long-lived assets, inventory obsolescence, stock-based compensation, income taxes, bad debts, warranty obligations, long-term contracts, contingencies and litigation. Actual results may differ from those estimates.
Discontinued Operations, Policy [Policy Text Block]	Discontinued Operations
	A discontinued operation is a component of an entity that either has been disposed of, or that is classified as held for sale, and (i) represents a separate major line of business or geographical area of operations; and (ii) is a part of a single coordinated plan to dispose of a separate major line of business or geographical area of operations; or (iii) is a subsidiary acquired exclusively with a view to resale.
	Non-current assets held for discontinued operations are carried at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell. Any gain or loss from disposal of a business, together with the results of these operations until the date of disposal, is reported separately as discontinued operations. The financial information of discontinued operations is excluded from the respective captions in the Company's consolidated statements of comprehensive income and related notes for all years presented.
Cash and Cash Equivalents, Policy [Policy Text Block]	Cash and Cash Equivalents
	All highly-liquid instruments with original maturities of three months or less are considered cash equivalents. The Company places its cash and temporary investments with financial institutions. As of December 31, 2014, the Company had deposits with financial institutions in excess of Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) insured limits by approximately $17.1 million.
Accounts Receivable And Allowance For Doubtful Accounts [Policy Text Block]	Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
	Accounts receivable are stated at face value less any allowances for doubtful accounts. Allowances for doubtful accounts are maintained at levels determined by Company management to adequately provide for uncollectible amounts. In determining the estimated uncollectable amounts, the Company evaluates a combination of factors, including, but not limited to, activity in the related market, financial condition of customers, specific customer collection experience and history of write-offs and collections. Interest income is imposed on overdue accounts receivable after the Company evaluates a combination of factors, including but not limited to, customer collection experiences, customer relationships and contract terms. Accounts receivable balances are written off after all collection efforts have been exhausted.
Inventory, Policy [Policy Text Block]	Inventories
	Inventories are stated at the lower of cost, determined using the first-in, first-out method, or market. Cost elements included in work-in-process and finished goods include raw materials, direct labor and manufacturing overheads. Inventories included a lower of cost or market (LCM) write-down of approximately $87,000 and $27,000 for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.
Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, Policy [Policy Text Block]	Long-Lived Assets
	The Company accounts for impairment of long-lived assets in accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) ASC 360, Property, Plant and Equipment. Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. In such instances, the Company estimates the undiscounted future cash flows that result from the use of the asset and its ultimate disposition. If the sum of the undiscounted cash flows is less than the carrying value, the Company recognizes an impairment loss, measured as the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value of the asset, determined principally using discounted cash flows. For the year ended December 31, 2014, the Company recorded an impairment loss of approximately $121,000 primarily related to the write-off of obsolete plant and machinery. For the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company recorded an impairment loss of approximately $75,000 primarily related to the write-off of the non-performing and non-redeployable EGMs and systems.
Prepaid Deposits And Other Assets [Policy Text Block]	Prepaids, Deposits and Other Assets
	Prepaids, deposits and other assets consist primarily of prepaid leases, prepaid value-added taxes in foreign countries, prepayments to suppliers, rental and utilities and other deposits.
Electronic Gaming Machines EGMs and Systems [Policy Text Block]	Gaming Equipment
	Gaming equipment consists primarily of EGMs and systems. Gaming equipment is stated at cost. The Company depreciates new gaming equipment over a five-year useful life and depreciates refurbished gaming equipment over a three-year useful life once placed in service. Depreciation of gaming equipment of approximately $2.9 million and $3.7 million was included in cost of gaming operations in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.
Property, Plant and Equipment, Policy [Policy Text Block]	Property and Equipment
	Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the useful lives of the assets currently estimated to be three to ten years, which in the case of leasehold improvements, is limited to the life of the lease and throughout the renewal period as long as renewal is reasonably assured.
	The Company capitalizes certain direct and incremental costs related to the design and construction, project payroll costs and applicable portions of interest incurred for potential projects in property and equipment.
	Depreciation of property and equipment of approximately $608,000 and $460,000 was recorded in the cost of gaming operations in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.
	Depreciation of property and equipment of approximately $810,000 and $323,000 was included in cost of gaming products in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.
Goodwill and Intangible Assets, Policy [Policy Text Block]	Goodwill and Intangible Assets, Including Casino Contracts
	Intangible assets consist of patents, trademarks, technical know-how, a gaming operation agreement, casino contracts and goodwill. Intangible assets other than goodwill are amortized on the straight-line basis over the period of time the asset is expected to contribute directly or indirectly to future cash flows, which ranges from four to ten years. The straight-line amortization method is utilized because the Company believes there is no more reliably determinable method of reflecting the pattern for which the economic benefits of the intangible assets are consumed or otherwise used.
	Amortization expenses related to casino contracts were approximately $2.4 million and 2.5 million for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Amortization expenses related to other gaming related intangibles were approximately $252,000 for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013. The amounts were accounted for as cost of gaming operations in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income. Amortization expenses related to technical know-how were approximately $26,000 for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013. The amounts were accounted for as cost of gaming products in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income. Amortization expenses related to patents and trademarks were approximately $24,000 for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013. The amounts were accounted for as selling, general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income.
	The Company measures and tests finite-lived intangibles for impairment when there are indicators of impairment in accordance with ASC 360-10-05, Property, Plant and Equipment.
	The Company measures and tests goodwill for impairment, at least annually in accordance with ASC 350-10-05, Intangibles — Goodwill and Other.
	Impairment testing for goodwill and other intangibles requires judgment, including the identification of reporting units, allocation of related goodwill, assignment of corporate shared assets and liabilities to reporting units, estimated future cash flows and determinations of fair values. While the Company believes its estimates of future revenues and cash flows are reasonable, different assumptions could materially affect the assessment of useful lives, recoverability and fair values. No impairment charges relating to intangible assets were recorded for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013.
Additional Paid In Capital [Policy Text Block]	Additional Paid-In-Capital
	For the year ended December, 31, 2014, the increase in additional paid-in-capital account mainly represented issuance of non-cash stock option compensation and the net cash proceeds received from the Company’s subscription rights offering.
Litigation And Other Contingencies [Policy Text Block]	Litigation and Other Contingencies
	In the performance of its ordinary course of business operations, the Company is subject to risks of various legal matters, litigation and claims of various types. The Company has regular litigation reviews, including updates from corporate and outside counsel, to assess the need for accounting recognition or disclosure of these contingencies. The status of a significant claim is summarized in Note 17.
	ASC 450, Contingencies, requires that liabilities for contingencies be recorded when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and that the amount can be reasonably estimated. Significant management judgment is required related to contingent liabilities and the outcome of litigation because both are difficult to predict. For a contingency for which an unfavorable outcome is reasonably possible and which is significant, the Company discloses the nature of the contingency and, when feasible, an estimate of the possible loss.
Revenue Recognition, Policy [Policy Text Block]	Revenue Recognition
	The Company recognizes revenue when all of the following have been satisfied:
		·	Persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists;
		·	The price to the customer is fixed and determinable;
		·	Delivery has occurred and any acceptance terms have been fulfilled;
		·	No significant contractual obligations remain; and
		·	Collection is reasonably assured.
	Gaming Revenue and Promotional Allowances
	The Company earns recurring gaming revenue from its gaming operations.
	For slot operations, the Company earns recurring gaming revenue by providing customers with EGMs and casino management systems which track game performance and provide statistics on installed EGMs owned by the Company and leased to venue owners. Revenues are recognized on the contractual terms of the slot agreements between the Company and the venue owners and are based on the Company’s share of net winnings and reimbursement of expenses, net of customer incentives and commitment fees.
	Revenues are recognized as earned unless collection is not reasonably assured, in which case revenues are recognized when the payment for net winnings is received. All slot operations revenues were recognized as earned during the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013.
	Commitment fees paid to the venue operators relating to contract amendments which are not recoverable from daily net win are capitalized as assets and amortized as a reduction of revenue over the term of the amended contracts. The Company had commitment fee balances related to contract amendments of approximately $126,000 and $234,000 as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.
	For the discontinued casino operations, the Company’s revenues are measured by the aggregate net difference between gaming wins and losses, with liabilities recognized for funds deposited by customers before gaming play occurs and for chips in their possession, if any. Cash discounts, other cash incentives related to casino play and commissions rebated through junkets or tour guides, if any, to customers are recorded as a reduction to casino revenue. Consequently, the Company’s casino revenues are reduced by discounts and commissions.
	The Company does not accrue jackpot liabilities for its slot machine base and progressive jackpots as regulations do not prohibit removal of gaming machines from the gaming floor without payment of the jackpots.
	Promotional allowances represent goods and services, which would be accounted for as revenue if sold, that a casino gives to customers as an inducement to gamble at that establishment. Such goods and services include food and beverages. The Company includes the retail value of promotional allowances in gross revenues and deducts it from gross revenues to reach net revenues on the face of the consolidated statements of comprehensive income.
	The Company also earned recurring gaming revenue through leasing table game equipment and providing casino management services to gaming operators within its casino property. Revenues from gaming table leasing arrangements are recognized as earned over the contractual terms of the arrangement between the Company and the gaming promoters and are included in discontinued operations.
	Gaming Products Sales
	The Company recognizes revenue from the sale of its gaming products and accessories to end users upon shipment against customer contracts or purchase orders.
Share-based Compensation, Option and Incentive Plans Policy [Policy Text Block]	Stock-Based Compensation
	Under the fair value recognition provisions of ASC 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation, the Company recognizes stock-based compensation expenses for all service-based awards to employees and non-employee directors with graded vesting schedules on the straight-line basis over the requisite service period for the entire award. Estimates are revised if subsequent information indicates that forfeitures will differ from previous estimates, and the cumulative effect on compensation cost of a change in the estimated forfeitures is recognized in the period of the change. For non-employee awards, the Company remeasures compensation cost each period until the service condition is complete and recognizes compensation cost on the straight-line basis over the requisite service period. Option valuation models require the input of highly subjective assumptions, and changes in the assumptions used can materially affect the fair value estimates. Judgment is required in estimating stock price volatility, forfeiture rates, expected dividends, and expected terms that options remain outstanding. For restricted stock awards with performance conditions, the Company evaluates if performance conditions are probable in each reporting period. The compensation expense of restricted awards is recognized ratably over the implicit service period if achieving performance conditions is probable. Cumulative catch-up adjustments are required in the event of changes in assessment of probability. See Note 12 for additional information relating to stock-based compensation assumptions. Stock-based compensation expenses totaled approximately $160,000 and $789,000 for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.
Employee Defined Contribution Plan [Policy Text Block]	Employee Defined Contribution Plan
	The Company operates a mandatory provident fund scheme, the MPF Scheme, under the Mandatory Provident Fund Schemes Ordinance for its employees in Hong Kong. The assets of the MPF Scheme are held separately from those of the Company in an independently administered fund. Contributions are made based on a percentage of the employees’ basic salaries and are expensed as and when the contributions fall due. The Company has no legal obligation for the benefits beyond the contributions. The total amounts of such employer contributions, which were expensed as incurred, were approximately $162,000 and $75,000 for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.
Product Development [Policy Text Block]	Product Development
	Product development expenses are charged to expense as incurred. Employee-related costs associated with product development are included in product development expenses. Product development expenses were approximately $387,000 and $261,000 for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.
Lease, Policy [Policy Text Block]	Leases
	Leases are classified at the inception date as either a capital lease or an operating lease. A lease is a capital lease if any of the following conditions exists:
		·	Ownership is transferred to the lessee by the end of the lease term;
		·	There is a bargain purchase option;
		·	The lease term is at least 75% of the property’s estimated remaining economic life; or
		·	The present value of the minimum lease payments at the beginning of the lease term is 90% or more of the fair value of the leased property to the lessor at the inception date.
	A capital lease is accounted for as if there was an acquisition of an asset and an incurrence of an obligation at the inception of the lease. All other leases are accounted for as operating leases wherein rental payments are expensed as incurred.
Income Tax, Policy [Policy Text Block]	Income Taxes
	The Company is subject to income taxes in the United States (including federal and state) and several foreign jurisdictions in which it operates. Deferred income tax balances reflect the effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax basis and are stated at enacted tax rates expected to be in effect when taxes are actually paid or recovered. ASC 740, Income Taxes, requires that deferred tax assets be evaluated for future realization and reduced by a valuation allowance to the extent the Company believes a portion will not be realized. The Company considers many factors when assessing the likelihood of future realization of its deferred tax assets, including its recent cumulative earnings experience and expectations of future taxable income by taxing jurisdiction, the carry-forward periods available to the Company for tax reporting purposes, and other relevant factors.
	The Company accounts for uncertain tax positions in accordance with ASC 740, which contains a two-step approach to recognizing and measuring uncertain tax positions. The first step is to evaluate the tax position for recognition by determining if the weight of available evidence indicates it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained on audit, including resolution of related appeals or litigation processes, if any. The second step is to measure the tax benefit as the largest amount which is more than 50% likely to be realized upon ultimate settlement. The Company considers many factors when evaluating and estimating its tax positions and tax benefits, which may require periodic adjustments and which may not accurately anticipate actual outcomes. The Company recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits in the provision for income taxes in the statements of comprehensive income.
	On December 31, 2010, the Company effected a Quasi-Reorganization. As of that date, the Company’s deferred taxes were reported in conformity with applicable income tax accounting standards described above, net of applicable valuation allowances. Deferred tax assets and liabilities were recognized for differences between the assigned values and the tax basis of the recognized assets and liabilities with corresponding valuation allowances as appropriate. In accordance with the Quasi-Reorganization requirements, pre-existing tax benefits realized subsequent to the Quasi-Reorganization are recorded directly in equity.
Earnings Per Share, Policy [Policy Text Block]	Loss per Share
	Basic loss per share is computed by dividing the reported net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock and shares issuable from stock options and restricted shares during the period. The computation of diluted loss per share excludes the impact of stock options and restricted shares that are anti-dilutive. There is no difference in diluted loss per share from basic loss per share as the assumed exercise of common stock equivalents would have an anti-dilutive effect due to losses.
Foreign Currency Transactions and Translations Policy [Policy Text Block]	Foreign Currency Translations and Transactions
	The functional currency of the Company’s international subsidiaries, except for its operations in Cambodia whose functional currency is the U.S. dollar, is generally the local currency. For these subsidiaries, the Company translates the assets and liabilities at exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date and income and expense accounts at average exchange rates during the year. Resulting currency translation adjustments are recorded directly to accumulated other comprehensive income within stockholders’ equity. Gains and losses resulting from transactions in non-functional currencies are recorded in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income.
	Below is a summary of closing exchange rates as of December 31, 2014 and 2013 and average exchange rates for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.
	($1 to foreign currency)			December 31, 2014	December 31, 2013
	Australian dollar			1.23	1.13
	Philippine peso			44.84	44.45
	Hong Kong dollar			7.76	7.75
	Thai baht			32.97	32.92
				Years Ended December 31,
	($1 to foreign currency)			2014	2013
	Australian dollar			1.11	1.04
	Philippine peso			44.47	42.55
	Hong Kong dollar			7.75	7.76
	Thai baht			32.54	30.8
Fair Value Measurement, Policy [Policy Text Block]	Fair Value Measurements
	Fair value is defined under ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value under ASC 820 must maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The standard establishes a fair value hierarchy based on three levels of input, of which the first two are considered observable and the last unobservable.
		·	Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. These are typically obtained from real-time quotes for transactions in active exchange markets involving identical assets.
		·	Level 2 — Input, other than quoted prices included within Level 1, which are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These are typically obtained from readily-available pricing sources for comparable instruments.
		·	Level 3 — Unobservable input, where there is little or no market activity for the asset or liability. This input reflects the reporting entity’s own assumptions of the data that participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, based on the best information available under the circumstances.
	As of December 31, 2014, the fair values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate carrying values due to the short maturity of these items.
Postemployment Benefit Plans, Policy [Policy Text Block]	Defined Benefit Pension Plan
	The Company provides pension benefits to all regular full-time employees through a defined benefit plan. A defined benefit plan is a pension plan that defines an amount of pension benefit that an employee will receive on retirement, usually dependent on one or more factors such as age, years of service and salary.
	The defined benefit obligation is calculated annually by independent actuaries using the projected unit credit method. The present value of the defined benefit obligation is determined by discounting the estimated future cash outflows using interest rates of high quality corporate bonds that are denominated in the currency in which the benefits will be paid and that have terms to maturity approximating to the terms of the related pension liability.
	The accounting guidance related to employers’ accounting for defined benefit pension plan requires recognition in the balance sheet of the present value of the defined benefit obligation at the reporting date, together with adjustments for unrecognized actuarial gains or losses and past service costs or credits in other comprehensive income.
	We recorded a decrease to equity through other comprehensive income of approximately $12,000 for the year ended December 31, 2014 and an increase to equity through other comprehensive income of approximately $37,000 for the year ended December 31, 2013.
Asset Retirement Obligations, Policy [Policy Text Block]	Asset Retirement Obligations
	Asset retirement obligations are legal obligations associated with the retirement of long-lived assets resulting from the acquisition, construction, development and/or normal use of the underlying assets. Recognition of a liability for an asset retirement obligation is required in the period in which it is incurred at its estimated fair value. The associated asset retirement costs are capitalized as part of the carrying amount of the underlying asset and depreciated over the estimated useful life of the asset. The liability is accreted through charges to operating expenses. If the asset retirement obligation is settled for other than the carrying amount of the liability, we recognize a gain or loss on settlement.
	We record all asset retirement obligations for which we have legal obligations to remove all installation works and reinstate the manufacturing facilities to its original state at estimated fair value. For the year ended December 31, 2014, we recognized approximately $27,000 asset retirement obligation operating costs related to accretion of the liabilities and depreciation of the assets.
New Accounting Pronouncements, Policy [Policy Text Block]	Recent Accounting Pronouncements
	In July 2013, FASB issued ASU No. 2013-11 ("ASU 2013-11"), Presentation of An Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Existed, which intends to reduce diversity in practice by providing guidance on the presentation of unrecognized tax benefits. An entity is required to present unrecognized tax benefits as a decrease in a net operating loss, similar tax loss or tax credit carryforward if certain criteria are met. The determination of whether a deferred tax asset is available is based on the unrecognized tax benefit and the deferred tax asset that exists at the reporting date and presumes disallowance of the tax position at the reporting date. For public entities, the amendments are effective prospectively for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2013, with early adoption permitted. We adopted ASU 2013-11 beginning January 1, 2014 and it did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
	In April 2014, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-08 (ASU 2014-08) “Presentation of Financial Statements (Topic 205) and Property, Plant, and Equipment (Topic 360): Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity." ASU 2014-08 raises the threshold for a disposal to qualify as a discontinued operation and requires new disclosures of both discontinued operations and certain other disposals that do not meet the definition of a discontinued operation. It is effective for annual periods beginning on or after December 15, 2014. Early adoption is permitted but only for disposals that have not been reported in financial statements previously issued. We do not expect the impact of the adoption of ASU 2014-08 to be material to our consolidated financial statements.
	In May 2014, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09 (ASU 2014-09) "Revenue from Contracts with Customers." ASU 2014-09 supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in “Revenue Recognition (Topic 605)”, and requires entities to recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period. Early adoption is not permitted. We are currently in the process of evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2014-09 on our consolidated financial statements.
