Episode 40: Star Wars Teaser Trailer Disappointment - It's my cousins fault!!
Star Wars: Fall of the Empire Teaser Trailer Reaction, but What Did We Learn? The Star Wars: Fall of the Empire teaser trailer just dropped, and guess what we learned? Absolutely nothing! I break...
Highlights
- Stern's Star Wars teaser trailer shows only a logo flying toward the screen with no gameplay or feature hints
- Previous Stern trailers for D&D, Kong, and X-Men provided 'little tidbits' and 'nuggets' for community discussion
- Retro Ralph won his first IFPA pinball championship at a knockout tournament with approximately 15 players
- Ball saves were turned off at Ralph's winning tournament, which was unusual and changed play strategy
- Metallica remaster at Expo was praised and 'stole the show' with Ray Day contributing to code polish
Notable quotes
“Look, you may not know this, but I know absolutely nothing about Star Wars. So what better person to come to when you want to come to the source of Star Wars knowledge, you come here, because it's so bad that it's good.”
“Newsflash, they don't know what Spike 1 is. They don't know what Spike 2 is. They don't know what Sam is. They don't know what Spike 3 is because they don't know anything about pinball yet.”
“I'm getting the vibe that maybe this isn't like a, like a Stern's vision of a Star Wars game. That would be weird.”
“Stern giveth and taketh away because they just were giving us all these nuggets before so like why did you go... they're so inconsistent like accessories i don't know when we want to do them we'll do them whatever whatever”
“I have a trailer that just literally shows you a logo flying toward the screen. That's it. It's all I can talk about.”
“My cousin, however, who was six years older than me, was really into Star Wars. But you know what? He was kind of a dick. He didn't let me play with any of his stuff.”
“Your guy right here won his first pinball championship. I'm super excited about that. It was a knockout tournament. It was IFPA.”
“I'm really excited about the potential of this Walking Dead remake because being able or remaster... they did such a good job with that and that stole the show at expo”
