[QUOTE="Chris Dunman, post: 44045, member: 329"] I think there's room to expand, even in a relatively small market here. I too can feel 'the resurgance' but mainly this is due to TPA and the likes of zen et al. The key here could be a move in a similar vein to the motor manufacturers these days. Platforming. If tables could be manufactured, not necessarily to an exact one model standard but to maybe 3 or 4, there would be room to replace maybe a few components within the standardised structure of the table to configure a brand new game at a fraction of the cost of a whole brand new table. The back glass is the same shape, allowing easy replacement. Flipper positions are the same, extra flippers excepted but they could be added. The cabinet is same bar the artwork. Ramps, toys, kickouts and so on could be changed on a modular basis. Just a thought... [/QUOTE]
