PINBALL 2000 RELAUNCHED IN 2010 ?
« on: March 06, 2010, 10:29:35 PM »
I wonder what a 2010 Pinball 2000 (Revenge from Mars or Star Wars Episode 1) would be like, if relaunched in 2010 with different titles/themes.  !@#

I wonder if someone like STERN would ever relook at that concept.

Anyone got any ideas of what style of hybrid could be made today that would include pinball and a large monitor of LCD make up.  !@#

What would a monsterbash or medievil madness be like in the pinball 2000 style of things ?  any ideas guys ?  !@# !@# !@#

There are various patents and other rights vesting in different owners, and I believe that the hologramatic projection of a video effect into a pinball playfield is one such patent, so 2010 is too early, it has a few years left on that patent.

Sadly, that was one of the protos being worked on when WMS shut things down!  !!!

Personally I think technology has progressed since P2000, and with all the newer technologies and ideas, I would like to think that developers would look at an updated platform.

Nucore, P-ROC and NPC2 systems should have a "think tank" and I'm sure we will have something within 5 years !
