I think it has the potential to be Stern's best selling game. It has more going for it than ACDC did at that game's release. The big unknown at this point is code. It seems to have a solid foundation but it's hard to know how good its going to be at this point. The rules seem somewhat linear and the video mode stretches things out.- i hope its not another CV copycat mode. Also not sure about the scoring? Seems like everything is Super Jackpots which kind of devalues the term. I have hopes that the software will still turn out great. On the big GB thread someone mentioned a rumor that code duties for the game were being switched from Dwight to Lonnie. Not sure if there is any truth to that but if it is true it doesn't give me a ton of faith. I'm still planning to order one because it looks amazing and the theme will be great for my kids but the code/software has me a little worried right now. I'm anxiously awaiting LE footage with updated code to make a more informed decision.

I don't think the OP meant that GB would be TAF or match it in sales, I think he is just inferring that it could be Stern's best seller. TAF sold about 25% more units than previous best selling WPC game T2. If GB can sell 9-10k units I would qualify GB as Stern's GB in terms of success in today's vastly different Pinball market.

Quoted from Xaqery:

There is no truth to this. Lonnie has his hands full with his own games and I am going no where.
- Dwight

Thanks for clearing this up Dwight! The game is in great hands and I am looking forward to owning one and following code progression! P.s. love what you've done on GOT and STTNG remains my favorite game to this day!
