I don't know.  I'm no purist but I think there are several reasons to build one of these things:

- it would be fun to build
- it would be a unique project/conversation piece when completed
- it saves space instead of having multiple pins
- easy to maintain
- you get to play many different tables
- new tables are constantly being added

My favorite one is the Woody Mini-Pin that was posted here a few months back.  It's gorgeous.  I see your point though - real pinball would probably be more fun.

Ummon:

Only a thousand?  Hell yeah, I can.
