Highlights

  • Fathom Revisited demand at TPF was overwhelming and led Haggis to pursue additional production beyond the original 250 limited editions
  • Keith Elwin's next game design is complete and he is already working on the game after that
  • Stern's James Bond has received code updates that improve flow by changing gate mechanics for better side shot access
  • Stern previously created a Premium version of The Walking Dead that played identically to the Limited Edition but without the limited tag
  • Multiple pinball manufacturers have created variant versions of games (Batman, Elvira, Jersey Jack Wizard of Oz, AC/DC, Hobbit) with different editions
  • Led Zeppelin requires sound awareness for optimal play, particularly knowing song structure and guitar solo timing for scoring
  • James Bond has persistent drop target bricking issues that are worse than typical Bally machines

Notable quotes

we went back from tpf and just went oh my god the demand was huge what can we do about it it was it was overwhelming and we tried to do something about it
Marty Robbins
Give people what they want. Keep the line moving. Put money in the company. Make sure the company is strong so that we can do the next game. I'm all for it.
Jeff Teolis
yeah it's long since done I'm on my game after that now
Keith Elwin (cited by Jeff Teolis)
one thing about james bond by stern is it does nothing to push pinball forward there's nothing really you look at and go oh wow that's new that's fresh it's different
Jeff Teolis
Pinball is subjective. That's all it is.
Marty Robbins
you shouldn't criticize it looks bad on you the commentator when you do that just just a little little tip for anybody commentating
Jeff Teolis
please, sweet Satan, dark underlord, prince of the pentagram, please tell me what you need me to sacrifice
Jeff Teolis
It's not for me. It's not for me. It doesn't matter what I think about the situation. It's what everybody else thinks about it.
Marty Robbins
