[QUOTE="Mark W**a, post: 89312, member: 1196"] Dr. Who, Lord of the Rings, Simpsons, Indiana Jones will be the top 4. I have a strange feeling WWF is going to do insanely well (and I have to admit I too have some nostalgia for that one). Man did Wiliams/Bally have the best games but the weirdest licenses. Seems like Data East/Sega was gobbling up all the good ones lol. They are left with Johnny Mneumonic, Shadow, and Demolition Man. 3 great machines based on movie bombs (well minus Demolition Man, I loved the movie and I think it was a hit). Stallone alone makes that one expensive, and I doubt would pass a kickstarter. I'm still of the mindset that you do these machines and stip the licenses off them. I'm kinda weird about strange licenses making it into the arcade. It's great for pinball fans who are familiar with how good the machines are. But for everyone else, I'm talking your mainstream audience, it's going to come off a bit weird, and dated. Indiana Jones, or Lord of the Rings, or Simpsons, or even Dr. Who are perfect because everyone knows about these shows. You'll get both pinball fans and a mainstream audience into them. Dr. Who is the only one that would have that audience going "huh" since it has nothing to do with the most recent show. Dracula is an exception too, because even though it's based on a 90's movie, it's Dracula. Dracula is timeless so most people won't even know it was a movie to begin with. I'm just thinking out loud. I have not voted yet. Someone just flat out say which Data East/Sega boards are the best. I'm still researching but I would like to know what the popular consensus is, since I don't know. [/QUOTE]
