Quoted from SteveP3:The door frame argument kinda makes sense... but the heads are quite a bit wider than the bodies.
Exactly..... the fact that if the head is wider..the playfield needs to be smaller...it's the trickle down affect...
Backbox is bigger than the cab, the cab is bigger than playfield..... so if the backbox is 28"+ and a door frame is about 30-32" (generally)...then the playfield can't be any wider than 20 something inches....
Quoted from Astropin:How does that explain wide bodies then? They still fit through a standard door.
Because the backboxes are the same size, but the cabinet larger. Don you think pinball manufacturer figure that out into their configurations. Same thing goes for appliances etc... they have to factor in the doorway.... however you slice the pie...
