Damage is always a concern, if you have something so rare and in such nice shape that you are going to be afraid to leave it alone for more then 5 minutes then bring something else.  



You know that's a great point Adam...  When I was thinking of which game(s) I could potentially bring to the show I was thinking along the lines of Star Light, Orbitor 1 or Star Gazer etc. because they are games people rarely ever get to see but my concern was potential damage.  In the grand scheme of things it probably makes more sense to bring a game that parts are readily available for, as pinball is pinball.

60n1, 100n1, custom MAME, whatever it doesn't matter.


In my case I wouldn't mind bringing the Sparky Ultra MAME cab but I'd hate to have to explain myself about the whole ROM ownership issue to nosey people. Further more, it would have to be working seamlessly or else it would be just taking a lot of real estate on the floor. Oh ya, transportation from Ottawa to Toronto is also an issue...

Are you planning on standing beside it for two days straight?

Yeah, I thought about bringing my MAME in, but besides the whole "legality" issue, I'm worried about reliability of the front end.  I suppose with an instruction sheet it'd make sense, but I'd want to make sure it locked out the desktop.  It's also not 100% intuitive to navigate, and I've had a couple of issues with the emulator hanging on me.  The biggest problem though is that I never put a lock on the cabinet, so I'd be worried about people stealing stuff out of it

What do you want? Defender is a no brainer right now. It's currently in the garage.

I'm still not convinced I am going to have the weekend off.

If you're up to bringing anything in, MB would be great-not sure if there's going to be one there.

   My aformentioned Demolition Man pinball will be in the tournament area and my Stern NBA will be in the free play area and may  be used as a back-up in the tourny area should there be a "catastrophic failure" in one of the games.

I'm bringing my Gtb Sure Shot, and maybe Captain Fantastic, and maybe Solar City.
