Most casual gamers won't understand why this table costs more, so charging the same price for this single table that you'd normally get two tables for is probably in itself something that will prevent many customers from buying it. It can't for many reasons already mentioned be included in a pack. But it should have some kind of premium price, so $5 instead of $3(?) that a regular single table costs seems fine to me. That should not scare too many customers away I think.3. Nope, but not because it cheapens the backers investment. See previous mentioned reasons (different versions of the table, redundant pack if you already got the table through backing the project and so on).4. Why would it matter if we get to play it a month or so before the general customer? If I get some extras, like the wallpapers they promise and so on, that's a nice bonus to me. Making the non backers wait just so we can feel special is, to me, pretty stupid and an elitistisc way of thinking that I don't support at all.The way I see it is that as a Kickstart backer I show my extended support to the company. I want to help out, not to get any special benefits (except what's included in the different funding levels) but to make sure they can deliver the table to us, the customers. The average customer won't care much about specific tables. If a table can't be done because of licensing fees, they shrug their shoulders and say "make some other table then". But we, the pinball fans, have our opportunity here to show our support, show that we want this or that table. I've pledged $30 simply because I'm ready to pay twice the assumed price ($5 for the table, but we're still guessing) for each platform I'm gonna play it on (Android, 360, PC hopefully <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" /> ). And I'm actually considering changing it to $40 because my job might force me to use one of those fruit vendor pads soon and I'll have a fourth platform ready for some pinball action. But I don't expect the average customer to be willing to pay this price, and I expect the sales figures would suffer if the table went high premium price ($10 or more).No offence to anyone, I hope I don't sound too harsh <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" /></blockquote>
