    "At some point in the future Heighway says that Full Throttle, Alien and subsequent machines will use Wi-Fi connectivity so you can log in to a machine and upload your high scores and use prepaid credits. If that’s not available when Alien is released then this will be made available via a software update at a later date."

    Plain and simple.

    Quoted from Okarcades:

    I'd love a text that told me my machine was broken. It's better than not earning or having palayers hate the machine for not working properly.

    put a note on the machine with your phone # , no wifi needed

    Quoted from Jasontaps:

    It wouldn't be long before a virus was written or malware just to mess with the machines

    I don't think pinball machines are on the anonymous radar...or many other peoples radar for that matter, outside of pinside.

    Quoted from Jasontaps:

    the chaos they created.

    so the tiny amount of machines on location is a high value target? Not buying it.
