Looks like A1U plans to release their version of the 3/4 scale Pinball machine at CES with a Star Wars licensed machine.

Looks like they changed the video to Private !

i dunno man, Arcade1up can't seem to grasp a control panel... with their seemingly constant QC issues... i couldn't fathom them attempting a pinball that won't be an absolute train wreck.

i couldn't imagine even a half decent pinball (even at 3/4 size) costing less than 2000 with all the mechanical shindiggery that needs going on... which is going to price it out of the walmart type purchasers they aim towards. by the time the scrounge it down to sub 600, there'd be nothing left but a couple flippers a half dozen targets and maybe a pop bumper.

if they where smart, they'd consider a VP table.

Seems like folks are happy with Star Wars. Haven’t heard too many complaints about the yoke. Turtles seems to be doing well too.

Howard_Casto:
Well they are doing well for the demographic that buys them... namely muggles who don't know any better.  I would love to see someone that owns a star wars cab review one of these things so I could get a reasonable comparison. Better yet I wish they'd get them in my local Walmart so I can try one.  As for pinball, it's got to be a sub-par experience because it takes some decent horsepower to simulate pinball properly and those SOC's that A1up uses just ain't gonna cut it.
