- Stern launched Metallica Remastered accessories without notifying their sales network in advance
- John Borg spent 5-6 months on a game for which Stern ultimately did not procure the license
- Evil Dead Pinball is released in collector's edition (one model only) because 'nobody really bought the other editions'

Notable quotes
“I think Stern sees that the market does not have an appetite to see a game price increase, and so they're trying to up the margins on the accessories to make up for what they want to do, which is actually raise the pro-premium LE pricing.”
“If you're going to screw me, at least let me know you're going to screw me.”
“Converting Spanish to English.”
“Be better.”
“A catcher's mitt.”
“Nobody really bought the other editions.”
