[QUOTE="RetroDude, post: 7726, member: 187"] Very much so! I like the whole concept and idea of a full-size pinball cabinet with the playfield screen, backglass screen and all the rest of the works. What I like better is the thought of having good, licensed content to use it with. I dearly would love to build one of these systems, but I also need to respect intellectual property rights. Since FarSight is going all the way to GET the proper licenses and rights, for a LOT of awesome games... that's most of the way there! I'd be willing to pay a significant premium price for each pinball game if it was made in such a way to allow the things mentioned here and elsewhere.. It would have to support configurable inputs and outputs, via USB, etc. multiple monitors output triggers for the various events such as flippers, bumpers, anything mechanical... light events, real DMD display support would be awesome. support for devices like real plumb bobs, etc. All the things that the VP people use with their non-licensed games. I'd be cool with a standard PC release that had some of these features at one price and a "pro" version with the inputs and outputs available for a cabinet build at a premium price. Think about it.. if someone is going to spend potentially thousands of dollars building a fully working and full size virtual pinball machine, throwing down a bit more for each properly licensed games is a no-brainer! ...except for some of the hard-core VP folks that want everything free. I hope they are just a LOUD minority of that group, but I'm not sure. The cabinet builders among them would more likely pay for the licensed content than the pure "just on the PC" crowd though. Even if it's an entirely different method of purchase for the games, with different prices, support mechanisms, etc. ... heck, a kick-start to get FarSight to build all that into all of the released and future tables would probably go over well.
