Looking forward to progress. I preordered one and can't wait to get it.

Quoted from Snux:

With this setup adding a DMD isn't possible.

I wouldn't say impossible. It might be impractical, but you could develope a slave board to drive the DMD.

I was even considering using a Raspberry Pi as an LCD controller. Not sure I'll do it, but seems like the master board could send the necessary data to the RPi and make the display react accordingly. The master controller knows when extra ball is earned or some goal is met, it tells the RPi and an appropriate animation is run.

I don't know much about Flight 2000. Was is normally a single ball game? What did you have to do with the trough to accommodate more balls? Did you end up installing a different trough and are you using a switch per ball to keep track of them in the trough?
