[QUOTE="Gorgar, post: 215137, member: 259"] Well, for starters, Bobby said that the EMs would be a part of the current TPA app. And the situation with After Dark and Ems are quite different. The tables that they would use for after dark are licensed and/or have technical limitations (capcom emulation). It would be dumb to launch an app with no tables in it or the same tables as TPA. But there are literary thousands of possible EMs that they could add to TPA that have no issues at all. You are correct that Bobby's answer is no guarantee, but I wouldn't compare it to After Dark, which will probably never happen. It is very encouraging to hear someone from Farsight admit that there is a fan base for EMs after years of hearing that EMs dont sell well. It is also encouraging that the first table that they are remastering with the drop catch and bang back physics is Big Shot. I don't think making an extra table every few months is much of a stretch, especially if they don't have any other projects. I know that Bobby and Farsight have announced other things that have never came to fruition (wiiu, cab support, rom emulation for older tables, a new ui, etc), but they do get stuff done from time to time and I am sure they are still working on all of these things and they will be out soon* *soon in Farsight time can represent anything from 1 month to 3 years.
