How many "most wanted dmds" are even left that wouldn't require a kickstarter?

I can think of:

Fish Tales
The Getaway
Red and Ted's Road Show

And that's really it. Most of the others would require insane license costs, and even two of those three would require a license for the music.

Rollercoaster Tyccon
Fish Tales
Red and Ted
Bram Stokers Dracula
Judge Dredd
Congo
World Cup Soccer
Junk Yard
Black Rose
Safe Cracker
WHO Dunnit

JackBot, Who Dunnit, Black Rose, High Roller Casino, Safe Cracker, Junk Yard, Indy 500, Big Bang Bar, Party Zone

Then ones with cheap licenses (guessing) Rollercoaster Tycoon, Monopoly, Judge Dredd, Dracula.

That's all of 2014 right there and more. And that's not counting system 11s people want F-14, Diner, EarthShaker, Banzai Run, Swords of Fury, and so on.

You overestimate music costs. Harley Davidson and Creature feature licensed music.

-edit- highlighted tables that other posters missed.

Actually, I said Jackbot :)

Also, Indy 500 is going to need licensing. How much? Probably not a lot,but it will need it. Also TPA isn't doing Capcom tables yet,so that's why I didn't say BBB. Regardless, there is more than enough pins for a Season 3.

How many of those really count as "most wanted" though? I'm talking on the same level of demand that games like White Water and AFM generated. There are plenty of good DMDs left, I'm well aware, but I'd say the majority of "most wanted" has been pretty well covered.

Also, Creature is missing a couple of tracks that they couldn't get the license for. It all depends on the artist and/or record label.

That sort of depends on the person. Buy I agree if we're talking top tier, then Getaway, Road Show, Indiana Jones, Dracula, Lord of the Rings, and Addams Family.

Jack Bot, Banzai Run, Earth Shaker, Xenon, F-14 are my personal top tier.

Safe Cracker and Who Dunnit I think are very highly rated.

I hear your point, there's enough really good, highly rated stuff to fill a year of single DMD releases, is how I should have worded it I guess.

Also forgot No Fear. And someone mentioned Tommy's Who Pinball is possible because its based on the opera and not the band. Tales From the Crypt is another that is top tier for a lot of people. Congo as well Both probably affordable licenses so there's still quite a bit of awesome to go and certainly enough for a year and a half at least.

The Rollercoaster Tycoon is a great table. My favourite one actually.
It's so unfair that ipdb just doesn't accept positive reviews with high ratings!
I and a couple of my friends tried to post high rates review and they've never showed on ratings page for RCT.
Actually, for the past 2 years only 5-7 stars ratings were allowed. http://ipdb.org/rate/showrate.pl?gid=4536

To be honest I actually wouldn't mind if the releases slowed down a bit. Two a month is a bit too much for me to digest properly, and play the other games I want to.

Are you kidding?

It took me a day to get all the goals on "T2".

It's hard enough waiting for 2 tables, not sure I could handle only getting 1.

I play the tables until they stop being fun, which is generally maybe three or four evenings per table pack (work full time). And whenever a new table pack comes out I use it as an excuse to play some older tables too.

I have previously had clinical OCD, one of the after-effects is I still have weird rules when it comes to playing video games. Doesn't make me ill anymore, but I often do things too thoroughly. Even though my actual OCD was completely different than that.

Ironically, I know exactly what you're talking about. I'm an organizing freak, everything has to be clean and in order.

I alphatize everything, and I can't stand leaving any trace of soap whenever I wash my hands or take a shower. lol

My poor wife, she's the complete opposite- Unorgazined, loses everything, etc.

With that being said, I still want 2-pack tables. lol. I'm a PS3 user, so I'm last to get new tables. :-(

(And yes, I know, Xbox users don't get anything, I don't need that reminder! lol. Maybe you guys should do the right thing and switch to Playstation. ;-). I think I've played Xbox maybe 3-4 times in my life, didn't really interest me.)

I never understood this whole "console wars" thing. When it all comes down to it, there's not really a big difference. I've owned every major console of the last 4 generations and never thought myself "man I wish I didn't own (insert console)".

Well that's not really OCD, which is actually a pretty debilitating illness (that can take on many more forms that just cleaning and neatness). But it is a common misconception so I don't blame you.

I may have to do that. But even with the prospect of a "super patch", I'm not impressed with the PS3 version. I won't be getting a PS4 anythime soon either.

BUT.........the PS3 version is still better than the Ouya, and unlike the 360 and WiiU versions, it does actually exist. Plus I don't have to spend hundreds (maybe thousands) to get a PC that would actually work with the Steam version. Well, OK Mechanix, I'm taking that under advisement.
