I’ll soon have an opportunity to play a Houdini, and I’m very, VERY excited to do so, but there’s one thing that sticks out in my mind...

In my years in the buying/collecting part of this hobby, I’ve never seen a new game be bought so much and resold so quickly.

It seems like every week 2-3 used Houdini’s hit the Pinside Market. Now a game that’s upwards of a month out of warranty (perhaps less depending on build date vs setup date) is getting the shaft on a board claim? I’m sorry but that’s concerning. Not a great way to build faith in the community as a fledgling company.

No, that’s the thing. I’m very in tune to RZ (ask anyone I play league with... not the biggest fan), have seen the game hit the market a ton, and still think Houdini’s have been sold more frequently, especially in this infancy stage. I’m sure a Pinside Market search could give us some real data... but I worked 12 hours on my deck today and am now watching 80s wrestling, so priorities.

But you’re right, at least it’s only a $95 board and not some $400 node board.
