Quoted from SkillShot:Gomez only made Deadpool because of issues with Trudeau, he overseas pinball operations and only fills in when necessary.
Ritchie is up, but it doesn’t seem he is as efficient as Elwin making games.
not sure that stands up to scrutiny!
Covid has caused Stern's schedule to be different for this year. Could be its ready to roll.
Quoted from J85M:All depends on the licence and the deal made, although we saw the Guardians and Spider-Man in Avengers, that’s the MCU and done by Marvel/Disney themselves
Theres no saying they include them in a deal to someone looking to license the Avengers. They could require completely different licenses and a lot of extra dollars. War machine and Winter solider should definitely be there at least you’d expect to see them.
comics and movie IP licensed differently - spidey especially...
Quoted from Wolfmarsh:Original themes are lame for the most part.
For the licensing fee, pin companies get all of the hard work teams of people put in, the millions upon millions in advertising to make the theme a household name, the humor, the story arc, etc....
There is currently nobody in pinball that has shown they can make an unlicensed theme even remotely as engaging as a licensed theme.
I'd typically agree with you but I think Black Knight:SOR team did an epic job on the theme - now you might argue its not an original theme a little but its defo a pinball theme.
- I don’t know why but that’s what I heard. Quoted from valgalder:At this point, I almost feel embarrassed for all the other designers at Stern. Keith continues to crush them all with creativity, and with him you KNOW the code is going to be great.
I don't think I agree. I like all of Keith's games, but Elvira, Turtles and BK:SOR I play just as much. JP2 is tough and I find it frustrating.
the tower is like smart missile from JP2 - Hawkeye challenge
modes with a limited number of flips ball save on, you drop flips until you hit a shot which adds some, but if you drain you lose flips but get the ball back...
Raymond Davidson worked on the code also.
marvel's talent does the voices.
pro has new light design that adds depth of field effect.
Quoted from drfrightner:Virtually no one had heard of Avengers until the first movie, we know Batman, Spider-Man, Superman, the movies made Avengers, Guardians, Deadpool, Suicide
Just my opinion.
theme is a total miss 
honestly man - lay off the blue pills.
Quoted from drfrightner:When Stern did Walking Dead they still hadn't made the transition to full color screens, which is a shame who wouldn't love to get a Ghostbusters with movies clips for example. Their first game with movie clips in full color was Batman 66 I think and WOW if you're a fan of that TV show you'll never sell that game.
I'm pointing out a new trend by Stern, getting a cheaper version of a license and creating their own World. We heard if they did Jaws it would be the same deal their own version of Jaws.. but do we really want that? Many companies have come out with video games based on Jaws where sharks go around eating people, all those games bombed.
What makes Jaws special is the film itself.
Deadpool was made popular by the movie so was Guardians.
Look at all the games in a row now where they licensed something and skipped out on gaining clips from the films... its a trend. Avengers was made popular by the films and I think we want to see the a FILM version of Avengers not a cartoon!
Just my opinion.
You mean like POTC with no movie clips? Or Wonka with video with no sound and sound with no video? Or the rumoured Toy Story with no Tom Hanks and minimal assets?
B66, Star Wars, Munsters, GOTG and Stranger Things would suggest that your theory doesn't stand up to scrutiny.
I don't know about your but when I'm flipping the ball I'm not exactly focused on the screen and since price of these games is a consideration I'd rather there was more ball and flipper action and stuff on the play field with the right callouts than bozo clips from a movie or show that if I want to watch I can put the telly on and watch them.
And as you clearly had forgotten. Avengers was huge in comics and then the video game world long before the movies came out. Jurassic Park was a best selling book long before the movies selling millions of copies. Ready Player One... etc etc.
Quoted from MK6PIN:Hey Pinbud!!! PDI still the best, but Stern's version is very close, w Invisiglass being 3rd, imho. I was pleasently surprised on how good the Stern glass was.
I agree -PDI and others isn’t better enough tot warrant replacing it.
