Addams Family should be made authentic or not at all. Also all of FS' contracts stipulate that they have to make the tables just like the production models with no mods. So they might not allow changing the artwork and voice.

Don't worry, Williams/Bally would never allow one of their tables to be butchered in such a manner. They are even hesitant in allowing mods (even those that were originally supposed to be included) for inclusion in the digital recreations of their tables.

Y'mean like bad guy stickers on the yellow targets in CC, and flickering candles in the Dead Head corner in Scared Stiff?

NICE!!! I just took a look at the official announcement from Farsight on Facebook. I also made the mistake of perusing the comments. Man, the comments on facebook are absolutely brutal. It's been quite a while since I've read comments there and I forgot just how bad that scene is. Compared to facebook this forum feels like a church!

XBox please! Wutabout XBox! Man, this needs to be on XBox! How about Addams Family?!

 

[xNiCeGuYx]

For Pin*Bot, I hope The TPA version will be less "outlane eager" than it was in PHoF/WPC.

Why you show no love for Xbox?

 

[gooche77]

I've stopped playing my Xbox all together. TPA on the pad rulez!

 

[Bass Mummy]

Can't wait for Pin*Bot. That's the table I played most as a kid, by far.

 

[Shulk]

I'm surprised it took this long for Pin*Bot. I mean the sequel of it came in the very first table pack, and now this is coming out in the 14th one.

Who knows when we'll get Jack*Bot in there as well...

Emulating it was probably the reason for the delay.

 

[Munky]

Any idea what day it will be released?

Mid May according to Pin Wiz and his word is usually gold.

They can emulate a System 11 game but still can't emulate System 6 (for Firepower)? Seems bizarre.

Not necessarily. When working with more primitive technology, there is often less need or demand to emulate it. In the case of this project, they may be attempting to emulate chipsets/processors that have not been attempted before.

I remember when MAME first started, most of the games with 6502 processors ran significantly smoother and more problem free than those that were based on Z-80's and other earlier chips. 68000 games suffered from a lack of processing power but the emulation itself did not have as many problems as any of the earlier chips. From what I remember the project was basically creating emulation from the ground up on the earlier modesl but they had an easier time with 68000s and even 6502s because there was more information about emulation and resources available at the time.
