Yep, it also got very good marks and comments. A few points made were: 1. Midway has not even tapped the international market yet. 2. Midway has a dual market in both arcades and homes with their highly successful franchise titles (Mortal Kombat, NFL Blitz, etc.). 3. Midway is testing a potentially lucrative technology called Wavenet, that allows separate arcades to be linked for head to head competition. Where it has been tested, coin drop has increased by a factor of 3 to 4. 4. Dual market allows Midway to keep marketing costs very low compared to the industry. Since NFL Blitz is already a hit in the arcades, when it hits the retail market, it will already have generated demand simply through exposure in the arcades. Two stong buys from both James Lin of Wedbush, and Stewart Halpern of Furman Selz for Midway wildman262! Regards, JB P.S. Hey wildman, what does the 262 stand for? :o)
