Was thinking about this the other day. Instead of having standard inserts throughout the game, what about mini lcd's or something in place of that change for different modes etc?

I have thought about having a small lcd front and centre just above the slings under a custom clear insert panel but programming is my concern...
No need to program it. I would use a stripped down mobile phone. Delete everything possible on the phone except the video player. Remove the battery and power it up externally. Preferably use a phone with buttons not a touch screen. You could create a gif on loop or even real video in mp4 including audio. Put that in memory on the phone or a micro SD card. Consider the phone power as always on. Then its a matter of triggering it from the playfield with a switch to the play (designated) button on the phone. Then mount the phone into the playfield with only the screen exposed or hide the whole unit in some plastic building like the bank etc.
