[QUOTE="codinghorror, post: 253685, member: 3350"] If you haven't watched the video for this, you should. Some interesting design choices. [url]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sDv3Etzv7Ak[/url] Can't say I'm a fan of the honking big black panel in the front, or the optional arcade controls you can put there.. just seems weird in a pinball machine. Some questions that come to mind: - I guess classic vertical orientation arcade games (from Ikaruga to Pac Man, etc) could be a match to the vertical pinball display but zero modern games are built for that display format. And that giant ugly black panel at the front, ugh. - touchscreen main panel certainly solves the UI problem but... seems like overkill to me? And adds expense? - lighting matrix / coil matrix / shaker motor support: tied to the pinball table, somehow? If so... how? - is there audio output for the table sounds specifically so those can come from table speakers vs backglass speakers? - obviously there is proper dedicated DMD screen and backglass screen output support here, which I'd freaking *kill* to have in TPA.
