Actually, I believe it's the other way around.

The higher end pins from JJP have allowed Stern to bump up their prices. For those who can't afford JJP, Sterns are still cheaper.

The higher NIB prices have certainly helped increase the value of the older B/W games.

I believe you don't know what you're talking about.

Earlier, you pretended to be upset that people called you out as xThe Black Knightx, "Karla."

Your pompous tone is unmistakable.

Actually, the TSPP upper playfield seems like a great comparison to me. The left ramp will always take you to the upper pf. But yeah, the garage door sometimes requires extra garage door hits, but I don't think it makes that much difference.

The similarity is that you usually need to get the ball up there multiple times before you get all three balls locked to start mb. Especially true with your second and third couch mb's.

If the game made it more difficult to get up there each time, it could become very frustrating if you constantly fail up there, kinda like every player on the recent video from Expo. The players could get a ball up on the upper pf way more often than they ever could shoot the cannon to lock a ball.

It might be a good thing if you can get up easily, but be challenged when you're up there. Kinda like TSPP.

Please be sure to inform us all which games can be joked about and which can't.

The most frequent comment from owners of crap games is "it's good now, but once they update code, it will be even better."
