[QUOTE="seattlemark, post: 113096, member: 1959"] Oh that's too funny. My wife is a non-gamer too, but after we got the Kindle Fire she discovered that it's a lot better for Mahjong (her one game) than on the regular Kindle. Now at least we won't have to share when I want to play TPA, as I will now be switching over completely to PC version. (Although I am going to want to play TPA on the TV sometimes, but at least there are two of those in the house and there are also two non-work-owned PCs.) Come to think of it, one of the main games on the old Wii that we both liked together some years back was the first of the two Pinball Hall of Fame collections for Wii by FarSight. The graphics I saw last night with TPA for PC on the TV were a zillion times better than with the same Wii tables. (No jaggies with PC, compared to the 480i from the Wii. Although the Wii controller was fun too.) Even my wife agreed about the excellent TPA graphics on the TV (as she hadn't seen it on my PC's monitor yet), so maybe she will want to start playing video pinball again. Plus I understand that FarSight had been updating those common tables over the years since they were originally in Pinball Hall of Fame. Outstanding to have the FarSight Pinball experience with a controller again, and this time with fantastic graphics! Last week I bought a plant pot caddy with wheels for $12 (that looks like a mini dolly to go under a car), which I will use to regularly roll my rather heavy desktop PC from my computer table area to the TV area. Please note: The Kindle Fire HD also has a really good picture on a HD TV or monitor if you use the micro-HDMI cable, but unless FS can get it to work with a bluetooth keyboard (that there was some talk about by an FS developer) there isn't a controller option.
