Notable quotes

“Black Rose is the definition of pinball. It's a quirky, original theme. It's fun. It's got all these cool little toys and trinkets and unique things.”
Don
“I didn't like that game until I played yours, and then I realized that I love that game. It's, oh, man, it hurts, dude.”
Don
“The move is usually to be you know supportive... if he had a girlfriend that he was going to break up with, you probably try to talk them out of it one way or the other right. The move is usually to be supportive.”
Ian (Nudge Magazine)
“The time that you had with that game was a gift right... just think about how lucky, like, when we deal with feelings like this... You had nothing to do, Don, with Matt buying that game.”
Ian
“If it's not a hell yes, then it's a hell no.”
Ian (quoting his sister)
“You're not that selfish... you're just like normal amount of selfish. You're not like a bad person.”
Ian
“I'm going to look at Matt and I'm going to say Matt... I am truly thankful as I'm looking at you in the eyes for the experience and for bringing this game into my life.”
Don
“You are a bright and shining example of who we want in this pinball community.”
Ian
