- Jaws 50th Anniversary edition may be in production July, with hosts speculating on design approach (black and white vs sepia tones)

- Uncanny X-Men received major code update (0.91) branded as 'Days of Future Code, Part 1' with complete overhaul of game state
- John Wick coder left or asked to leave, then returned; V0.95 update pulled players back in with more approachable rules and faster mode access
- Uncanny X-Men and John Wick have been sliding on secondary market, but an uptick is expected following code updates
- Stern's Expression Light Topper costs $3.99 with interchangeable game plates at $99 each, compatible with Spike 2/3 systems
- Jersey Jack retailers are answering 20+ questions per day from customers asking when Harry Potter will ship, creating significant workday burden

- Harry Potter CE package was so much better than expected that it outsold other tier options significantly
Notable quotes
“I had a work conference, so I was out of town. During the crash? No, after. I crashed.”
“I'm going to get ice cream and tacos... dulce de leche and street tacos... It tasted extra good after the accident.”
“I told you. I told listeners. And I held out. and it's coming to fruition. We got 0.91, a big overhaul in the entirety of the future game state.”
“That game is going to be an effing monster. That game is going to be fantastic. It is a monster game.”
“a couple hours of my day is simply giving guesses as to what when games are going to come out. That sounds exhausting. We call that inefficiency.”
“I don't want to upset people if it's irrational for them to be upset because number 17 would be a good thing with us... Your primary concern seems to be that because it's not complete information, you know that they're going to jump to some sort of conclusion.”
“I don't want to give numbers for people because it doesn't mean anything. But they want the variables because it feels like they at least have some information.”
“The last thing I want is somebody to blow smoke up my ass... I've experienced that so much from dealers... Well, we got them coming in two or three weeks... fucking like four months later.”
“I've started based on the current data we have i've started giving a rough estimate for people as to my guess so we'll see”
“It's infecting everything. Like a disease, Dennis.”
