Quoted from Mitch:I guess my funhouse is a beta max then and I should just toss it out into the fire pit.
Heck, I'll take it off your hands for a couple of crisp dollar bills...

Quoted from thedarkknight77:Honestly, I am not trolling, I think the new LCD looks amazing and will put serious pricing pressure on high priced LE and premium DMD games.
Sorry, but if someone gave me one of these brand new pins I wouldn't even take it out of the box. (Well, I'd probably play Dialed in some). I would rather just trade it off for a couple of good classics that are fun to play. More than 90% of the time I'm not even looking at the video screen, my eyes are on the ball(s).
Comparing DMD vs LCD pinball machines like VHS vs Blu Ray is a horrible comparison anyway. In my opinion, pinball machines are more like cars. For example, you could go to a dealer and buy a brand new Mustang right off the lot with GPS, Bluetooth, LCD lights and all sorts of modern electronics. That hasn't caused the price of a classic Mustang to plumit over the years, the price of a classic Mustang still has slowly climbed over the years.
So the thought that the price of DMD pins are going to plumit as they are "obsolete" because new, more advanced, machines are being made just won't happen. If anything, it will help maintain the prices of the overall market.
