Quoted from Dooskie:I'm curious what facts you have to base that on. I'm not saying that you aren't correct, I'd just like to know how you arrived at that conclusion.
Their cost to manufacture almost every component of the pinball machine (cabinet, decals, trim, power system, boards, wiring) is lower today.
That's why they come out with new platforms like spike. The can add more horsepower and programming flexibility at a lower manufacturing cost. They manufacture that platform on over 100k machines and their margins increase dramatically compared to how they manufactured the machines in the past.
Stern is making more money now than ever before. Anyone who can't see that has blinders on.
