Listen on Final Round Pinball

Highlights

  • Guns N' Roses has sold extremely well already.
  • The Celts will be the deepest single-level game rules-wise currently available.
  • Jersey Jack's animations are miles ahead of competition, particularly Stern.
  • Light shows on pinball machines don't translate accurately to video streams due to auto-balancing and camera limitations.
  • The Celts sold well without having shown the final version at trade shows or having major IP licensing.
  • Steve Ritchie is expected to be the next Stern designer to receive a game release.
  • The Guns N' Roses playfield features big, fat shots that are not tight/brick-fest prone.
  • The Celts playfield has very responsive diverters that feed shots perfectly to the top flipper.

Notable quotes

“I haven't been able to stop thinking about it since playing, and I haven't had that feeling in pinball for a while.”
Ryan C.
“JJP embarrass everyone with how good their animations are. It's embarrassing how far ahead they are.”
Ryan C.
“The light show is something you can see in pictures and videos of, but they will never be able to give you the same experience in real life.”
Ryan C.
“It's going to be probably the: I don't know, somebody can try and correct me if I'm wrong: it's going to be the deepest single-level game there is out there, rules-wise.”
Ryan C.
“It is silly fun. That's what it is. It doesn't take itself too seriously.”
Martin (Marty Robbins)
“I don't want to play another game right now.”
Ryan C.
“Streams don't do it justice. Light shows will never translate on video as they do in real life in a dark room.”
Ryan C.
“The subwoofer they've got in there: and when you get multiple multi-balls and that music starts: it sounds so good. And I was sweating at one point.”
Ryan C.
