This picture says it all to me. This was at the SXSW Gaming Expo, with tons of other neat new things to distract the kids.

Seriously, I don't think I have seen kids crowd around a pinball machine like that since maybe when I was a kid, and even then, they were all absorbed with fighting games and ignored the pins.

Hopefully this video we made really clarifies how versatile the platform really is, but I think nothing illustrates how this is the future of pinball better than that picture.

Theoretically, you could get some pretty cool "Phantom Flip" action going too, so the game could effectively play itself for a while assuming it made the shots accurately.

Not sure how important it would be for gameplay, but it would be a hell of a demo!

Ah, I vaguely remember talking to Gerry about this but I don't think I had seen that video before. So cool! Maybe they can invent a programmable shake-weight into the bottom of the cab to add auto-nudging!
