[QUOTE="invitro, post: 231306, member: 446"] Certainly, but that's only half of the equation. The other half is sales potential, and I'm sure that BW100 would sell many less copies than NF. Just being non-DMD is enough to say that. BW100 is also pretty obscure, and while NF is somewhat obscure, I don't think it is as much. I think I've played BW100 a couple of times, but I don't remember it beyond that. It looks interesting to me and I would back it for TPA. It was the last Bally game before the WMS deal, and I didn't know this until now, but at 3000 it had the highest production of any Bally going back to 1984's X's and O's (3300). Here's a blurb from IPDB: [COLOR=#000000][FONT=helvetica][I]Dennis Nordman said 'Blackwater 100' was inspired by [/I][/FONT][I][/i][/COLOR][I][COLOR=#000000][FONT=helvetica][URL="http://www.ipdb.org/machine.cgi?id=789"]Bally Midway's 1988 'Escape from the Lost World'[/URL][/FONT][/COLOR][COLOR=#000000][FONT=helvetica] and that its name is licensed.
