      I just happen to run into this today. It just makes me sick! 800+ tables pre-loaded running Pinmame, VP, forced feedback and db2s! Seeing this kind of stuff really makes me sick!

              you know, If I didn’t know better I would fully agree…. but for some damn reason I’m in the reverse of that reasoning… I have way to many friends… dont get me wrong i’m burning bridges daily to overcome this…  but its like trying to kill all the rabbits in the world…..

                    To be honest, I don’t see this as selling tables.  The parts and labor to build a good video pinball cabinet, tables or no, is worth the price.  Many love pinball but aren’t capable of figuring this stuff out.

                    800+ tables though?!  Come on, who’s ever going to play all those.  I’m lucky if I have 20 tables that get serious play time.  I make fun of randr all the time because he has to have every table released/not released in existence on his cabinet.  Last time he showed me his cabinet, I think he had 1,300+, LOL.  It takes him 20 minutes to find a table.

                      yeah, that’s really not the point as I see it… even if it was every shit table that’s out there, the real point is its being used to sell the machine (the gimmick)
                      it would be like if “RonCo” was selling these on TV it would say “and wait there’s more, 800+ games for free”
                      that’s just an insult and not how the process has been put into place…. its a hobby, not a retail toy… hobbies take some sorta effort before the final outcome

                        Agreed the price to build a cab alone is worth the price but bottom line is you should not include the software. But really the few cabs they will sell is nothing to worry about. Does it even state the software and stuff is included? Not seeing that in video at all. The cab build actually looks ok too

                          at $4100 I wouldnt build one for someone, not for that price …. and at the price its a better option than “other” american made cabs….
                          but I can’t over look the total disrespect toward this community….. the chinese dont blink an eye when it comes to stealing tech,content,hardware

                            peters billiards in mpls minnesota sells a machine with tables loaded in machine. i forget how many tables are on the machine. the machine is nice for people that cant build them on their own. the tables issue is hard to judge. for the buyer of machine who are not savy enough to figure out download process to get machine to work. also some buyers may not even know they can download more.i think its wrong to have 800 tables on one. i think they should have to include credits for tables who recreated them at least. i think its wrong of cabinet sellers to include tables. but to sell cabinets they have to be able to show how it works to customers i personally dont like it. B-)

                              if the chinese are savvy enough to build the machine, they should be savvy enough to make test content…
                              I believe on this subject I would have an answer for any and all counterpoints….
                              I had a small business stolen from me just in this way…

                                          Know what makes me sick? Some other jagoff will rip the contents off that cab’s drive, slap another table on there, and then sell a collection that has 800 and 1 stolen tables!

                                            Like that movie “Something about Mary”.

                                            The psychotic hitchhiker who has a great new business idea.

                                            Instead of 8 minute Abs Workout Video, he made a 7 minute Abs Workout Video.

                                            Like Ben Stiller said..”That will be ok until someone else comes out with 6 minute Abs Workout Video”.

                                            Pretty damn sad!!!

                                            Carry on.
