Putting all of the technical hurdles above aside, the round trip delay would be too much to make it enjoyable.
At that point, might as well play TPA, Williams tables on Pinball FX, etc. At least you’d be able to nudge.

Quoted from Mr_Tantrum:Disappointed that this is unplayable for me. On a high end PC with 50MBx50MB broadband at home with about a 2 second delay. I was also the only one in the game.
Logged back in and this time about 1/2 second delay - still way to much to play the game when you have to predict where the ball will be in 1/2 a second vs. where you see it.
Yeppers. That was my point to the OP: Virtual pins will always be a better (less worse?) experience than trying to control a pin over the Internet, almost exclusively because of the delay.
