December Release - Thursday, Dec 5, 8:00AM Pacific!

The holidays are upon us... Make this the most colorful season ever!

ColorDMD is excited to announce that all display products will be back in stock on our store site this Thursday at 8:00AM Pacific time! At that time all 'Add to Cart' links will be visible.

Get the new Theatre of Magic display or upgrade your favorite Stern with a new SIGMA display and customize it with your choice of color and display effect! The new SIGMA 2.3 ROM supports an improved upscaling algorithm and selection of 97 custom colors to match any game!

All displays ship with WPC power and ground cables, and a new mounting bracket design to support installation in WPC, Whitestar, and SAM platforms. A cable kit for Whitestar/SAM platforms is available separately. Regardless of display ordered, all displays are identical and ship in the same configuration. Use a USB flash drive to select and install any of our nine supported multicolor ROMs!

We hope you can join us Thursday, and thank you for your continued support and interest in our products!

I found the WH2O version to be just okay.
Hopefully TOM is more impactful.

I think the only additional games I'd be interested in adding this too would be IJ or TOTAN moving forward.
Havign an all green SHADOW would be cool too... but it's a big expense just for monochromatic. We'll see. Maybe if I get tired of WH2O in colour

TOTAN would be excellent in colour. I can see IJ being great too.

For Shadow, couldn't you rig an all green shadow by using a green XPin DMD : http://bayareaamusements.com/Merchant2/ ... -DMD4096-G

I don't think you could gel orange to make green, only brown, or maybe a very, very dim green.

For the cost of an XPin green display you are 70% of the way to a ColorDMD and have to live with seeing grid lines depending on the way the LED blocks line up. I would spend the extra and go ColorDMD and set to a single color with Sigma. At least it could be re-purposed in case you get bored and there happens to be a Color rom that one of your game supports. These new kits are no longer game specific and just need to be unlocked if you bought an earlier revision or else I think the latest it comes with no game color rom loaded.
