True!

Someone worked out a way to recompile the code so your personalised initials are on the High Score table... no I haven't tried it.

Wow just wow 320 dollars to your door bargain if I ever saw one lmao

Unfortunately a lot of mods for pinballs have prices that bear no reasonable relation whatsoever to parts cost or effort making them. That being said, this particular mod really is damn cool - an actual Tron cabinet with its own screen that runs in attract mode. It doesn't help that the standard Stern arcade cab looks (and probably is) super cheap.
