  Pinball Price Hikes - How much do you care? Post #41 in topic

  Posted 126 days ago by Damonator – in All Pinball ‐ Last reply 99 days ago

  For me, it depends on the manufacturers: JJP - a Harry Potter with a shat ton of mechs and I'll pay $15k for a CE. Practically anything else with TS4 bill of materials, nope. Stern - Elwin & Gomez killer themes at $13k for an LE, probably. Everything else is a hard no at that price. Spooky - if they don't succumb to the temptation to overprice, I can see doing $9k for a CE if the title/layout is fun.

The temptation to sell at these prices is real, but what would I spend the money on? Everything else is inflated right now. And what's cooler to own than pins?

  Did you turn mode stacking off? I would recommend it to keep the depth of the game and to get to experience each mode individually. I haven't but I have been avoiding stacking them. Maybe I will turn it off to avoid the temptation...lol

  The temptation must be there as other games have had special editions. If they did 100 SSE ( super special editions ) at $20000, they would sell out, and that is $2m revenue.

  What wizard mode did you reach today? Post #146 in topic

  Posted over 2 years ago by DanQverymuch – in All Pinball ‐ Last reply 20 days ago

  It wasn't today, but when I finally unlocked Choose Your Adventure on R&M by filling the Adventure Card (with only one adventure prelit), I of course chose Rick Potion #9, which is only available that way, and the music had me laughing so hard that I drained before I really knew what was going on. Still trying to get back to it, and resisting the temptation to change the setting to "un-wizard" it and just mix it in with the other adventures.

I wasn't planning to remove the mylar, but gave in to temptation on the end... very pleased with the result!! That layer of glue just after the mylar comes off is quite shiny before the dirt gets to it! So happy the insert artwork stayed where it was!! [att=6087288,2279905 caption=""]

Does anyone know if it’s code complete? I know it’s 3 years old now, but are they still improving the code. (I know the code is pretty awesome already!)
