[QUOTE="chinzman93, post: 172237, member: 3047"] Interesting....I just assumed since the ROM support was for free play that wouldn't be an issue. I don't know who in their right minds think that "MILLIONS" are coming. I am sure it wasn't his most fun question since it probably isn't a money maker. The only thing that bothers me is that the people that ask those questions are the ones that are probably the most passionate about virtual pinball software and seeing it be successful. These will be the people that will pay (probably more than currently charged) for an entire season of early 80's SS tables vs mostly DMD tables. In general, I think everyone wants to see TPA be the best that it can be. I think a common misconception is that cabs take thousands of dollars of investment. In reality, it can be as simple as 2 smaller monitors oriented right or as much as someone wants to spend. A lot of money can be saved with a little sweat equity. I only have about $1200 in mine (just a basic 2 screen) and I could have done it a lot cheaper if I need to for budget reasons. While cabs or simpler versions aren't the most common they really could be if there was a proper commercial software product. Just my 2 cents...hope things change. Edit: Is it possible they are looking at support for coin play for cabs? I could see that being a sticking point. [/QUOTE]
