Notable quotes
“I want the freaking Wi-Fi update code. I want it now. I want it now. Let's finally have that. Why is this taking everyone forever?”
“I am sick and tired of JJP games that turn off all the lights, and then when they're in the 403 Club, I can't see the ball anymore.”
“They have been teasing for years. Everything keeps getting changed. Everything keeps getting pushed back. They were supposed to have had a big reveal at TPF two years ago.”
“If they don't have something ready to go this year, how much longer can they go on?”
“I don't expect it to do as well as Wonka. No way. There is no way.”
“Wizard of Oz, Hobbit, Dialed In, Wonka, it's all really whimsical stuff. As Zach, with his obsession with tone in pinball, was so much whimsy. It's a little too cute for me.”
“Iron Maiden had the much smaller fan following, but it was such a good game and such a good layout that overcame that. It actually overcame the theme. It wasn't about the theme. It was about the game itself.”
“I would be so disappointed and then it'd be so disappointing. I want them to bring out John Cena with the hammer.”
