    I wrote this stuff in another thread two years ago:

    "The entire backglass is a 4k resolution screen. It has an HD camera with face recognition and a microphone with voice recognition. When you GC (or even put up a top score) it takes a picture of you celebrating.
    I walk up to the pin and say "(Name of machine) ON" and the pin says:
    "Welcome back Adam, are we feeling lucky this evening"
    Me - "Not so much, I'm kind of tired"
    Pin - "Well I'm sorry to hear that, would you like me to add a ball?"
    Me - "No, standard three ball is fine"
    Pin - "Very well, shall we begin"
    Me - "Fire away"
    Pin- "Ball launching in 3....2....1....launch"

    "It could verbally tell you how your doing and how far along you are in the game.......or not, your choice. It could verbally tell you when a switch is going bad.....etc...."

    I don't only want to talk back to me....I want it to mock me when I'm playing bad.
    "Jesus, you just missed that same shot three times in a row.....have another"
    "You keep playing like this and I'm shutting down"
    "So...I bet you played a lot of video games growing up didn't you?"
    "Those buttons on the side....yeah they make the flippers move"

    Quoted from o-din:

    If you could add bats to a game like they have on those pitch and bats, then a player would have more control over the ball and it wouldn't be so much a gambling machine. They could be called "flippers".

    That's crazy talk.

    I was going to say slow down but then noticed it was KPH.....or 49 MPH......SPEED UP!
