- Star Wars: Fall of the Empire will be produced in three tiers (Pro, Premium, LE) with exactly 770 LEs, marking 1977 (A New Hope release year)
- No Star Wars: Fall of the Empire LEs will be sold to Europe due to different licensing arrangements between North America and Europe
- Star Wars: Fall of the Empire will feature a larger screen than previous Stern games but maintain a full translight
- Game designer is John Borg with programming by Raymond Davidson
- Star Wars: Fall of the Empire will use media assets/clips from films rather than custom Jurassic Park-style content
- LEs will ship mid-September, with Premium and Pro following late September into early October
- No pricing increase for Star Wars: Fall of the Empire compared to previous cornerstone releases
- The game will likely focus on Episodes IV-VI (Original Trilogy) based on the 1977 LE number and 'Fall of the Empire' title
Notable quotes
“Star Wars is consistently one of our most requested and most searched pinball franchises for both existing and new pinball fans”
“I'm not against it, but I can't get enthused about something...it's like we get more pinball machines than we do movies for Star Wars”
“I'm down for a Star Wars pin every five years. I'm all in”
“John Borg, the good thing is that he doesn't make a bad layout ever...The downside is he makes a safe layout”
“I think it takes over a month, but under two”
