As a fan of innovation, I welcome new features such as:*LCD display instead of DMD
*Camera to record top player's images
*Deletion of rollover slots by using magnetic sensors (providing they don't require trimming)
*All LED lighting
*PCBs in lieu of sub p/f wiring (if the traces don't f**k up)
*Even transparent drop targets
My hope is that having competition might fire Stern up to incorporate some of these ideas.
Overall the Grand Canasta is a seriously sucky theme and the game is rather two dimensional, but with advancements like this, MarsaPlay should well become a serious contender.
It's high time some genuine opposition emerged IMHO.
