[QUOTE="dtown8532, post: 124272, member: 320"] To keep this product rolling with just one table a month, it's got to be a winner. There's a few non-licensed Gottliebs I'd like to see. Lights, Camera, Action, TX Sector and Spirit are three of them. But, it's just not going to happen. At five bucks a table, they're not going to get decent sales on these tables as stand alone titles. I want Stern's Catacomb. Also, NOT going to happen. FarSight is showcasing a new game of their's in the TPA newsletter. They want to move on, try something else or, at least, supplement TPA with something that doesn't require so many man hours as buying a pinball machine, having it shipped $$$$, ripping it apart, photographing it, modeling it, doing artwork, physics, etc. Bally/Williams sell. Especially System 11's and WPC's. They're hot right now because they're what's in the minds of people that are into pinball on these platforms, mostly mobile and tablets. It's an age thing. Guys in their 30's and 40's who remember playing these titles and they want to again. EM's? With the exception of some titles, they're slowly fading from memory as those that remember playing them get older, die off or just don't care. My dad saw this with antique toys. He's been repairing and reselling toys from the 50's and 60's for about twenty years now. Mostly robot stuff. He started before ebay. He watched as ebay drove prices through the roof. After a while, though, things just started to drop and drop and drop. Why? Because the people that remembered playing with these toys either got them, died off or just didn't care anymore. Bottom line is to keep TPA going for a little longer FarSight has to appeal to the audience with tables that will sell well. [/QUOTE]
