[QUOTE="soundwave106, post: 234446, member: 3746"] There's a very vocal crowd that likes EMs / early SS machines... and there's a very vocal crowd that hates them. So the fact that a table from this era is ranked low doesn't mean it's a bad table per se. Even the System 11 games are going to be less popular than the 90s DMDs. System 7 boards actually are to some degree backward compatible with System 3,4,5, and 6 from what I understand. So in theory it would be possible to write an emulation that could cover *all* of those games, I think. The big problem with this sort of investment is that older tables don't sell as well, I imagine. A shame, because it would be great getting Firepower, Gorgar, and Black Knight emulated. Firepower and Black Knight in particular suffer from bugs that make me not play those tables due to the high likelihood of a game-ending snafu. [/QUOTE]
