From the creator

More fun than you can handle! We rate every JJP game! We also discuss the top 10 Theme's that haven't been made that SDTM just did and talk about who we'd love to make each one! A jam packed episode...

Highlights

  • Wizard of Oz (2013) was the biggest pinball innovation in history due to jumping to a 27-inch screen
  • Jersey Jack CEO's biggest regret was limiting Pirates of the Caribbean Collector's Edition to only 200 units
  • Willy Wonka was originally planned as Toy Story theme but lost the license, forcing a pivot to Wonka
  • Guns N' Roses LE was the last time Jersey Jack made a standard version of any game
  • Guns N' Roses is oversaturated in secondary market with 5,000 LE units produced
  • Toy Story 4 LE pricing jumped to $15,000 at time of release, representing a significant price increase
  • Precision flipper installations dramatically improve Hobbit playability
  • Toy Story 4 is making significant location revenue despite high price point
  • Godfather has 37 ball paths in the playfield design
  • Harry Potter is the next JJP game in development and will likely be a white body with castle buildings

Notable quotes

The industry was forever changed. I mean, nobody had seen a game like that before. Definitely not a production model.
Genghis
mr jersey jack himself his biggest regret in life is limiting those ces to 200s only this came out of this man's mouth
Genghis
This is like a wide-body done right... You use all that room but still have fast, frenzied gameplay, not just big, open space
Don
If this game shot like Elton John, it would be the best game because the theme is cool, and the theme integration is awesome.
Genghis
It's $6,700 because thousands of them exist out there, and the market is just completely oversaturated with this game.
Genghis
When normal people, non-pinball people works, they just want to play some pinball on a location, when they see Guns N' Roses, they can relate.
Genghis
There's so much secrecy in pinball. I wish we could go in as like a focus group as they're developing these things
Genghis
They essentially made a mafia-themed pin and they put amazing-looking artwork all over it... and the fountain is fun to look at and that's kind of it.
Don
real collectors, they don't want this dog in their collection... This game doesn't shoot like Elton John.
Genghis
It's not a cheap game like Guns N' Roses, but it's a cheaper game. If Toy Story was Guns N' Roses prices, I'd pick one up, no problem.
Genghis
