Those of you that have plans to or already have purchased Arcooda's pinball cabinet, tell us what helped make that decision as well as what model you are getting. If there were other factors, feel free to comment below.

Buying an Ultra. It came to the choice between buying a cabinet optimized for TPA and hoping for good results from FX3, or buying a cabinet optimized for FX3 and hoping for good results from TPA. I like both, but pick optimized TPA over FX3.

From what I understand, it runs FX3 without a hitch. For some odd reason though, FarSight didn't have that loaded on their machine.

Thanks! The Ultra looks very sweet indeed, can't wait. Plus I'll finally have a nice set of joysticks, buttons, a good sound system, and a 4K display to make trying out MAME worthwhile (Pengo, here I come).

Back in 1983 or 1984 I bought a refurbished Centaur from Bally for $850 (they still existed; in fact, in Urbana where I was living the University even had an honest-to-goodness Goin' Nuts), and then about 10 years ago a semi-trashed High Speed at the auction at the Pinball Expo in Chicago - still working on that one (now that I am retired I'll have more time). The Ultra isn't that far off from my $850 in 1984, accounting for inflation. In fact if I assume 3 doublings over those 34 years, I am paying almost the same in 1984 dollars but getting 76 TPA and countless other tables.

For some reason the poll is not letting you select multiple choices, which is odd. I honestly wanted you guys to be able to pick as many choices as needed.
