Couldn't agree more. I might not have heard about the real Zaccaria tables if it wasn't for Magic Pixel's excellent recreations of those. I kind of wish they'd just stopped after they made those because they were so good and what has followed just cheapens the brand and the legacy of the original Zaccaria team, especially the AI stuff. Sadly I can't even stomach playing the recreations of the originals anymore because the UI is so ugly, cluttered and cumbersome to navigate.

Since I cannot answer elsewhere, let me say thank you for the insight here.
The term "shovelware" fits my impression - I just couldn't think of the word for it.
It's unfortunate that they turn such a fine legacy of real retro tables into this.
I'm banned from the Zaccaria Pinball forum (you're welcome to check my post history there to see if you think that is warranted) but I spotted your recent question about AI. You won't get a representative sample of responses because a lot of long-term fans checked out, not just because of the AI table art but because ZP is basically shovelware at this stage (you can look at the updated reviews to help gauge this). Very few of the newer tables seem interesting or memorable. Anyway, afaik there have been two other threads about AI and both were locked by Magic Pixel, but you might be interested in those.
