I think it would be cool to see a multi-dimensional game with multiple playfields like Pinball Circus. It is a work of art and challenging trying to get to the top and accomplish objectives. So much going on, I wish they would have made more. If PPS did a re-make-I would be all over it. I tried finding a video of someone getting all the way to the top that is clear-hard to find.

I would tend to agree with you on the newer games. If they are all just going to be based on franchise images with cut and paste graphics then the backbox is not necessary. I do like art on backglasses like Wh20, CV, Metallica, AC/DC Luci and others that are artistic. With the new Spike system being tiny it could easily be inside the cabinet. You could also fit the DMD inside the cabinet like CV. If it got the cost down towards $3000 it would make it more affordable for a lot of people. Mabye Stern should try this instead of "The Pin" to get into more households. Also like your idea on the hologram.
