    I'm not sure who started the "Stern is only making one more dmd" rumor. They will be the last to adapt since they have the most to lose.

    If JJP was pushing out 2-3 games a year, then that might force Stern's hand, but 1 game every 2 years won't do it.

    After visiting Dave & Busters recently, and seeing the huge touch screen games, I think if pinball wants to seem "State of the art" it will need something radical, like the entire backglass is now an LCD with huge graphics flying around. So even bigger than the WOZ screen.

    I'm not saying I_ would like it, but if the point is to attract new players, then it has to be on the level of the competition, and right now that is 46".

    Quoted from ChadTower:

    I just don't see how an LCD in the place of the DMD is innovation. It's an upgrade in tech but there is very little innovation going on there. It's the same thing done with better tech. That's not what 'innovation' means.

    I agree with this. Is there any new gaming possibilities that the LCD can give us? Besides just looking better?
