i applaud them for trying. i don't care for it though. maybe spending some more time with it will help.

Yes the Stern Pinball Arcade is available. it would probably be wise to hold off buying anything until they fix some of the bugs with it though. There are lighting issues, and at least for me I can not put my initials in for high scores and they've redesigned the user interface which needs some tweaking. Its hard to read the rules for each game. but these are minor things that will probably be fixed sooner or later

I play all the time. I'm hooked on Dracula & the black knight now that they've spruced it up a bit. I'd prefer if they never do another Gottlieb game ever again. There are lots of Bally & Williams games i'd love to see (Flash/Fathom/Future Spa/ transporter as mentioned above) Game Plan Allied Leisure but no more Gottliebs please... its always a bummer when they announce them.

Will all Stern (and former companies - Data East, Sega, and Stern Electronics) be only on SPA? I'd love to play certain Data East & Sega Titles, the older stern games would be awesome though. Seawitch? Stars? Dracula? Cheetah? Big Game? Stargazer? As buggy and shitty the interface is I have learned *somewhat* how to play the newer games but they still kick my ass. I hope for the best b/c for someone without access to these machines locally its better than nothing. Not holding my breath that they'll fix the UI and we probably won't see Ghostbusters til this winter or next year at this point...

yes! I like playing this one but usually just flip the ball around wildly since I have no clue what I'm doing... now if they do the shadow this season i'll lose my mind
