[QUOTE="Samandor, post: 94602, member: 2844"] Great thread! If a n00b may add some thoughts: Other ways to add sales apart from new tables might be to add play functionality to Pro versions that doesn't preclude competitive scoring, and add functions to unite portables with consoles (thus another reason to buy games for more than one platform). For instance - adding support for a second device or screen to be used as a functioning backglass, and more support for Bluetooth controller devices on desktop platforms would better justify Pro and multi-platform purchases. E.g., If I could use my iPad and modified iCade controller for proper shaken nudge and side-buttons when playing on the Mac, I'd be pretty danged happy. The problem I have with the Pro versions is that they are interesting, but not useful. It makes sense that if you tinker with internal game options that scores in this mode don't count, but adding some playability functions as above that DO count would make the extra purchase worthwhile. Otherwise - TPA rocks; it's just about the only worthwhile game on any platform! [/QUOTE]
