[QUOTE="Sean DonCarlos, post: 24027, member: 152"] While I agree that it is especially important that TZ and ST:TNG be as error-free as possible, I wouldn't hold my breath. TZ in particular is a very complex table, and even with the 15 extra beta testers from its kickstarter, I think the first round will have its share of bugs. Even the real table sometimes develops issues; the ROM occasionally gets confused about where the Powerball is even when the proximity sensors are functioning properly. The Powerball is also likely to be particularly susceptible to ghosting through objects, as it moves faster than a regular pinball. There is a possible exception to this, if FarSight was expecting TZ's and/or ST:TNG's presence on TPA to increase sales of the other tables enough to make up for their losses. (As in "I bought this for Star Trek, but I see lots of other tables now that I'm here, let's give them a try as well.") But I don't think that's true, nor do I think FarSight expects it to be true.
