Quoted from ryanwanger:When people say "feels like a Stern" in this thread, I think they generally mean: "weighs less than those heavy Bally/Williams games". To be honest, it does make you think that it's cheaply made when you can push the game around. That's why they literally put functionless weights into fancy headphones these days - to create an added illusion of quality.
You are right, when I think of quality I think of i big heavy transformers that provide the needed voltage for outdated plasma displays. I think of late 70's technology that is getting harder and harder to find parts for. I think of hundreds of little incandescent bulbs that are a pain to change out.
Both games play exactly the same. One has leds and comes with an lcd standard. The other typically has an aftermarket lcd and leds. Oh baby, let's beat this horse some more!
