Official table / theme idea suggestion thread

Phantom of the Opera

I really like the one that Data East made (art and music wise), but I know Zen can add so some much more meat to the concept.

Super Mario Brothers table would be fun too. Fighting against Bowser, collect the powerups, ball goes down drain pipes....

I was really hoping Zen would have done a Super Mario Bros table. Miiverse constantly asks for it. That and Zelda are the 2 most requested Nintendo tables. However, I remember Barbie saying that she would love for Zen to do it, but Nintendo has a tight leash on their franchises and the very fact that it would have to be exclusive to Nintendo. Zen wants their tables to be available to everyone now. So I don't think it's going to happen...the SMB table. I hope something else similar or on the level with that can happen though.

What...Guardians of the Galaxy?...hahaha!

Not to worry, i still love Zen and will support them in the future.It is very understandable to go with the biggest licenses possible and discard the rest.I just wish that Zen would find a much better balance between commercial and less commercial tables/ideas.But i guess it is too late for that.

Funny, I find that I actually like the tables with no licenses such as Sorcerer's Lair, Paranormal, Mars and Earth Defense are my favorites and those types I seem to like the most, im not really sure why. Maybe because they are new idea's vs. star wars or marvel where I already know what to expect... I played that Soccer table demo the other day and I liked that also. Plants vs. Zombies seems great too, will buy that before too long most likely. Definitely not into the comic tables unless there are any that are really great that I dont know about?

Super Mario Brothers table would be fun too. Fighting against Bowser, collect the powerups, ball goes down drain pipes.... tons of ideas for that...

B movie horror inspired tables would be great!Or how about in particular tables inspired by Hammer or AIP(Roger Corman, for example The Pit and the Pendulum)?
But sadly all this will never happen.Zen are horrified of horror so to speak and also would need to create a standalone platform to sell these tables under a higher age restriction.Now Zen is focused on maximum commercial output with Marvel, Star Wars and even The Walking Dead(which should be a R-rated table if you want to do it right).
The room for original, edgy or less commercial themes seems almost non-existent to me.A shame really.So many possibilities will be left unconsidered and many great suggestions throughout the threads are in vain.

I wouldn't be so sure about that....

Last one, hahaha. I could think of tables for days...

Id love to see a Christmas themed table for the holidays!

Great idea! That could be a lot of fun and cheap to make as I'm sure we don't have to pay anyone for THAT license

I'll add a BMX table, James Bond themed tables would be cool and how about a Radiohead table!

Few more ideas. Of course you could do a ton of movie themed tables, some that came to mind quickly:

Indiana Jones
Back to the Future
The Goonies
Lord of the Rings
Aliens or Alien vs. Predator

Another idea was for a Casino themed table.

I'm not sure if this has been suggested before, but what about a set of tables based on the games by Blizzard Entertainment? World of Warcraft, Diablo, and Starcraft are all humongously popular and would tap into a market that hasn't been reached yet. Think about it. WoW is the top grossing game of all time.

Consider it done! I'll try not to be overbearing though.

Haha, funny you should mention that. I no longer play board games with my wife because of a board flipping incident. We were playing Axis and Allies one time and we got into a..."disagreement" over the rules and she flipped the board and literally hundreds of pieces went flying in every direction. Never again did we play that game. It's funny now but it really pissed me of back then, lol.

Hahahahahaha that's hilarious! I hit my older brother over the head so hard with his Monopoly board that it broke in half. He was totally stealing from the bank... he taped the board back together but he never asked me to play again for some reason

Anyway - I meant to tell you I like how your table wishlist is in your signature! Would be cool to see others doing this as well!

[Bearded_Warrior]

This could be really awesome! A digital version of Monopoly themed pinball would be great for keeping me from rage-flipping the board and scattering the pieces everywhere... hahaha

Fun idea for a thread. I remember playing a Monopoly pinball game and it was great. Id like to see a pack of older board game tables, Monopoly, Game of Life..... Not sure if anyone else would like this but sounds fun to me!

Also to add, personally, im all set with comic book tables... Not really my thing and I feel there is enough of them already.

Boardgame Tables

That's because Aquaman is.....alright. LOL Nah I'm not like everyone else with their hate for him. I wouldn't mind seeing table from him. Not before I would see one from Batman and Superman though.

Aquaman is my favorite dc guy. I just felt obliged to put the big 2 on the list first for obvious reasons.
I was real happy with injustice game and how they treated him. I dominated with him. I loved the shark special and using the trident to whoop people up! Aquaman rocks! I think he's in the new batman v superman: dawn of justice movie too. I think he'll be played by that game of thrones dude.
