[QUOTE="invitro, post: 223328, member: 446"] Checkpoint has the Porsche Carerra name and car all over it, so it would take a license. Stargate is Gottlieb/Premier. Not many DE's are highly rated, which seems to mean quite a bit. It doesn't seem reasonable for Farsight to pay for one of those big licenses and get a low-rated DE table, when they could get a highly-rated Williams/Bally/Stern table for the same amount or less. The Stern Pinball Arcade will come into play here. I'll bet that Stern would say the same as above, but double... why make a DE when you can make a modern Stern? I'd be very surprised to see any DE for many years, unless the last Sony license table is indeed LAH. [/QUOTE]
