The Pinball Show Ep 144: The Big Jaws Episode

“I think Stern actually, in reality, a lot of, at least elements of Stern, were planning to do the reveal in December. I think Keith Elwyn intervened... I think he walked in slapped the big red [button]... I'm Keith Elwyn. I keep this company afloat. We're waiting until the start of 2024.”

“He said confidently Stern Pinball will be returning back to three cornerstone released games this year, 2024.”

“there will be no more limited edition games or versions after the launch of a Cornerstone game... When a Cornerstone game comes out and if there's 1,000 LEs, that's it. They're not going back to the well for space.”

“They paid the big bucks... they also paid for custom speech by the man himself, Richard Dreyfuss.”

“My first impressions were, oh, this sucker stands out. And upon further inspection, I add, this sucker stands out in a really good way.”

“This game strikes me, listener... I was pretty shocked because if you told me Jaws and you told me Keith Elwyn... it wouldn't have made this. This shocked me.”

“He said there are some intricacies of doing that type of system [home leaderboards] that, frankly, are much more difficult than people would assume.”

“They have zero plans, zero, for DMD games to have Insider Connected in the future.”

“if they're moving [special editions], and if they're moving, then it sounded like the whales were all whale sounds and not actual action. But if they're really worried about burning that bridge.”

“You only did like what six seven episodes saying that there was this huge hole in the December calendar... And little old Dennis, not a distributor, got no real good connections whatsoever, is just sitting there going, you know, I just think they're going to be turning out old product.”
