Notable quotes
“That is a fucking incredible quality machine... ask Dr. John... he was one of the reasons why i was convinced... yep and that sold me”
“We do the two things that nobody listens to. We do tournament talk and tech talk. They're like the two kisses of death for podcasts.”
“I'm not paying $8,500 for Cactus Canyon. Sorry. In my mind, the game is not that good.”
“Who the fuck does that for anything else? I'd like to buy that new car that's coming out. Can I see it? Can I test drive it? No, no, no, no. But here's my money.”
“The time would have been the 90s to do it, but if there was ever a time to do it now, you get the nostalgia factor, plus it's currently on TV.”
“And that being said, let's think of machines that you'd like to see remade that have been made before... could the same be said about pinball on the way?”
“I'm looking forward to that play field. Just because at first I thought it only had, like, two positions... But it has multiple positions... from simple to, like, Banzai Run verticalness.”
“I have another dream theme, and I'm pretty sure it might happen, so I'll just keep that under wraps.”
“They're coming out with a new movie. They're going to be at Paramount Plus and they're doing two seasons guaranteed.”
“I would want them to remake, do a new version of Roller Games... Just make it even cheesier than it was.”
