Just got a call from an official Stern distributor. They received word from Stern themselves, the Star Trek announcement will be at the end of this week for sure and it will be a DMD for sure. Confirmed.
Quoted from Crash:He said she said. Not quite confirmed.
This is true I guess. We will find out tomorrow.
It is true that Stern has no plans to put an LCD in any of their games any time soon. As the distributer put it "Stern doesn't want to fix something that isn't broken".
Quoted from mummite:Tomorrow? I am thinking more in a couple weeks, but we will see. And get them Metallica peeps some code updates!
You could be right. You never know with these distributors.
Quoted from RobT:Napabar is gonna have some 'splainin' to do!
Sorry Rob and everyone else. I contacted the distributor again and asked him to read the email he got yesterday from Gary Stern, and it read:
"The next Stern pinball will be announced September 12th?????"
So it is next Thursday and it doesn't even say Star Trek?? Sorry guys for the misinterpretation from the distributor.
Quoted from RobT:Dude, that's a far cry from "confirmed"!
You're right, sorry. The way the distributor was talking to me it sounded like it would be at his doorstep tomorrow. That's why I called him back and asked him to read the email from Gary Stern to me. Once again, sorry.
Quoted from calvin12:September 12th is Thursday, not Friday
Fixed. Although the email stated the 12th, having the announcement on a Tursday is a bit weird so I think it will be Friday non the less. It is a week away so I guess we just have to wait.
The distributor I talked to had a picture of the new Star Trek machine. He wouldn't send it to me but he told me it had the faces of the guys from the next generation on the translite. It got me excited so I told him " really it was suppose to be the new into the darkness movie only". He then replied "Oh well maybe it is, I don't know Star Trek that well". Was he back peddling or did he really not know Star Trek?
Quoted from statsdoc:At some of the prices you all are describing, my ST money may be heading over to JJP? My inner Dorothy may be coming out, although i am not wearing those #%&@ ruby slippers.
I haven't seen WOZ at all yet but people that have played it told me it was very feminine. Is this true??
Quoted from DCfoodfreak:Really? Here on the ST announcement thread?
Never played the game, just wondering. No one has to answer.
Quoted from copperpot:From "Definitely" to "Predictions" in one thread... Softening your position now, are you Napa???
That shit is too funny.
Quoted from PanzerFreak:Really? That's the first time I've ever heard that reference made. I own an ACDC Premium and have a WOZLE on order as the game even with its code not complete is hands down one of the best pinball machines I've never played.
I also have had people tell me the WOZLE version was amazing. It reminded them of the old days of wide bodies where there was a ton of toys on the playfield. I've gotten 50/50 mixed reviews, I guess I just have to track one down and try it for myself, thanks.
Quoted from hank527:Thats funny pkp is a measure of what exactly? How little life we all have posting on this forum?
Musketd is friends with Jersey Jack. Ask Jack and he will tell you Derek is his friend. He talks to Borg on a semi regular basis as well as others like Gomez and Ritchie. Most anyone involved in pinball will say they know Derek.
Napabar,
I hate to do this, but you are really becoming a complete "tool". Please realize that you have not established yourself for someone who gives credible information
Oh Snap.
Quoted from ronlisa:My gut tells me that we see a tease today and the full release Thursday like we seen with Metallica.
The distributors email from Gary Stern did say the 12th.
