Quoted from Mike_J:I'm now relying on American/JPop to release a game I want to buy?
If they can pull it off at $7k it may be so.
How did we go from LE's just 2-3 years ago at $7K to now $12.5K. Operators cannot/will not afford it, and the hobbiest elite might tolerate it. Now where does it go? The new $4k Stern Home version?
Pinball will not be able to sustain these prices.

Quoted from Hitch9:I'm too old for all this 'stuff'. The theme doesn't resonate with me, but all I care about is having fun at my cranky stage of life. If it gets to my distributor, it is a blast to play, and I get a buzz playing it, I'll be plunking down my credit card.
I want a game I can have fun on, and zone in. Hmmm,... maybe they should have called it Zoned in.
Get your credit card ready.......I was a non believer until I played it last night. This game and the play is the real deal.
Quoted from rommy:I am amazed . I put in a 300 gallon saltwater reef tank and stocked it and am still not $12,500 in yet. A 2009 E320 diesel can be had for less than $12,500. They finally did it. Someone cue up that scene from ending of Planet of the Apes...you know the whole "you blew it all up" scene
I got to say there is a small collector's market for $9K to $12.5K machines. BUT, and that is a big but, it can only be in very limited #'s
At the same time, $5K Pros and $7K Premiums must be the large production #'s for your operators and average home collectors.
If Stern & JJP think the $9K plus market is the new mainstream, I believe they would be sadly mistaken.
