Highlights
- Pokemon LE features expression lights and a magnet under the Meowth battle area that pulses without fully grabbing the ball
- Pokemon's playfield layout is nearly identical to Transformers (2011), with the scoop and pop-bumpers in the same areas
- Transformers pinball (2011) was not a commercial success
- Evil Dead pinball finally arrived in Denmark after 4 months of sea freight delays (originally promised October, then December, then January, then February)
- Don's Beetlejuice homebrew build is approximately 50% complete, with playfield wiring done and cabinet fully wired; remaining work: back box, ramps, and mechanisms
- Don's Pokemon LE is expected to arrive within the next two weeks
- Teenagers from UK, Sweden, and Germany universally consider Instagram use by people over ~26 years old as 'creepy'
- European shipping via sea freight (using sub-distributors) is significantly slower and more expensive than direct air freight from manufacturers
Notable quotes
“Aren't you from the 1900s or something...you're one of them old creeps on Instagram”
“The ramp entrances are great man...Josh really had it wired too like every time the ball would come back...he was like right on it with the next shot so he was making it look really easy”
“I just don't like the idea of my $10,000 pinball machine just rotting in a cargo container in the middle of the Atlantic in the sun and heat”
“Every game should have a magnet and a spinner at least”
“The magnet's actually located underneath the play field, so there's not going to be an interface that needs to be adjusted...you're not going to have to worry about like wood chipping”
“I'm going to say something really bad about that boat trip in two seconds”
“I love you guys. I love Spooky. I just, you know, I'm just frustrated”
“when you're talking about wood chipping on magnetized areas then you're a certified fucking pinballer now you're not an amateur anymore you're one of the guys”
