Their EM selection certainly has not been stellar, but early SS wise they've released *quite* a few big names: Firepower, Gorgar, and Centaur are certainly not no-name crappy early 80s tables. (One, Centaur, was even a new emulation of a well ranked, well liked table. Firepower, though coming from Williams Hall Of Fame, is at this point the pinball in TPA with the top number produced). They certainly took a chance with the Flight 2000 Stern as well. One snag is that they've *never* released an EM, or even most of the early SS tables, on its own. So I can't even see how Farsight could really gauge popularity *that* well. I was definitely among the ones who thought that (honestly) a top EM would outsell a mediocre late 1980s Gottlieb though. I'd definitely been more enthused with Fireball vs LCA.My speculation is that, if they dip their toes in this market again, they'll start with an early SS like Xenon that tends to be requested quite a bit more than any single EM.</blockquote>
