Given: 36 current TPA tables, and two new tables per month. (Yeah yeah, they're probably going to top out at 10 per year, but this is a what-if, okay?)Given: 464 machines at ipdb with a rating of 7.0 or higher*. All currently-existing TPA tables except Goin' Nuts are part of this list.Huge unrealistic assumption: FarSight will make the tables in the second "given".Conclusion: TPA's last table will be released in August 2030.I'll buy 'em all.* Note that this list does not include machines which have not been manufactured yet, nor does it include machines with too few ipdb votes (e.g., Wizard of Oz), but it does include machines with multiple versions as separate machines (e.g., AC/DC Premuim and Pro).
