Yes, you can make a bad game even worse by installing this junk from Mirco Playfields!

That dmd and speaker panel is beyond hideous 
I agree.That dmd and speaker panel is beyond hideous
I don't have an issue with TOTAN though. I do think jpops games are all quite simple but fun to shoot so rules updates will only improve them

Beautiful style little substance sums up TOTAN

It could be brilliant but you would rather trash something before you have played it. Back to the old days of Stern games being slated the day the test games were spotted on site.

In this case I think I'm justified:
1: Its totan
2: Its has Mirco involvement (you know the guy that responsible for 1000's of games having ****ed playfields!).
But when I've played it I'll be sure to take video and provide you with a forensic reasons as to why its crap

It would be ever so funny if you really enjoyed it.

I just don't understand why micro are involved at all. Theyre not providing access to increased distribution channels or adding any technical expertise. All they are doing is dragging the devs name through the mud, putting people off and designing speaker panels that look like 90s clip art.
The coder seems like a stand up dude i feel sorry for him but this seems like a poor decision.

It’s Micro though, he’s a knob

MIRCO Pinball Drops the Ball with Tales of the Arabian Nights 2.0 Kit
Despite making a big presentation about it at last year's Texas Pinball Festival and still showing it for sale up on its website, it seems as though MIRCO, the oft-criticized pinball playfield manufacturer, is no longer involved in the production of the 2.0 kits for Williams' 1996 classic Tales...

Who’d have thought!
Nobody is forcing anyone to buy this @Neil McRae - you must be barmy if you do get it.
The person who has developed it is actually a really nice guy. But (from what I heard) he needed the backing of someone that could help him get the go ahead (license) and I guess he had to scrape the bottom of the barrel.
I seriously do not know why anyone does a 2.0.
Funhouse 2.0 is not as good as Funhouse for example.
Totan 2.0 wont be as good as the original either.
NGG2.0 is worse than NGG.
If you are going to re-write all the code - it may be easier to make a new game from the ground up.
We are yet to see CC2.0/Lyman code by Chicago Gaming . I think CC is pretty average, even the CGC 'finished' code that is in the remake as standard.
I think the only improvement to an existing game is Cactus Canyon Continued.

TOTAN could be a great game with better code. That's all it needs but Micro isn't the person you want doing it
It is not Mirco doing the code.
It is this guy:
Been working on it for nearly 4 years.
