Actually that was me responding to Kaneda.I mean, thats what it sounds like :Copyright infringement.
These dudes are Dutch and maybe didn't realize until too late
It seems thats what Phil was referring to when he said "doing it the right way:"
Some of the other buzz words were 'integrity" and "clean".
Someone also mentioned that the songs were available in Europe but maybe not here.

Heartbreaking....and I don't even have a pre-order.

Can you imagine the entire legal dept at Universal vs. 2 dudes from the Netherlands who want to build a toy?

Wow!!!
Great posts by Kevin from CPR.A real business man who has a real co. in pinball.Awesome insight.Real information based on experience rather than all of us speculators.However I have some questions.

1)How much does Roger Sharpe's services cost?Can DP afford him long term if it takes awhile to straighten stuff out?
2)How long to legally remove Phil and get set up as a legit US business?
3)How long to redesign/make changes?
4)How long to get everybody their refunds and/or reinvest those refunds if they come back?
5)Once/if these problems are straightened out,where and how will the games be built?Its been discussed(Skit B thread) that boutique co.s can make 2 to 3 games per week.If they are to deliver 500 games it would take 166 weeks(3 per week).

Maybe some these have been answered on here and I missed them but I feel these are legitimate concerns.

Sourced out to who?
Stern or JJP?Because those are the only pinball factories I know of.Incidentally that would cost money too.

Is it a pinball assembly line type facility?i.e how many per week,how long would it take for pre orders to be filled?
The reason I ask is with all the focus of our community on the NEW problems nobody seems to be asking:"After youguys clean up, when do I get my game."

Just saw the pics of their facility.GOOD NEWS!!!!Finally a light!!!!

Got it!!!
My main concern is still the game.If i was in I wouldn't really want to concern myself with the internal workings of DP.My focus would be " gave you a deposit(or 2)wheres my game?"
I mean ,ultimately thats what you paid for.Licensing,profit margins are none of my business,I did my part(money up front),when can I expect delivery?

Somebody please invite Bill Gates or Warren Buffet to your next pinball party

What do you want a cookie? So what?You don't get credit for things you're SUPPOSSED to do.I doesn't fix or change whats happening now.I hope they're using "private money" to pay Roger Sharpe.

Hope so,it would be great!!!

You missed it again.It is the dream of most Americans to own their own business.What examiner was talking about was a business loan.To build your own business,be your own boss,live the "dream".Not take a loan for a vacation!!!!!Where did that come from?

Are you familiar with the phrase"Put your money where your mouth is."

I was just trying to get you to see what Kevin from CPR and examiner were getting at.

ok back on topic......

Was there ever a firm delivery date?

often talked about but rarely seen in this hobby

This is not a bad idea!!!!Of course I don't know what it would entail.But I like it!!!!

too late

Stern is the largest pinball manufacturer in the world!!!!!!!
MMr is being assembled there,Im guessing with B/W parts.Boutique "A" or "B" could do their own QC.
Better yet ask PPS how they plan on QCing their MMr. Assembled,with pride,by Stern.
40 - 50 per day....... that would make a whole lotta pre order,waiting forever folks very happy.

There are probably details Im not privy too,but when badbilly brought it up it sounds better than 2-3 games per week.

I guess we will find out when MMr gets assembled by Stern.JJP could join the party as well.Either way we will find out how feasible when MMr gets built.

How many games per week can they make?

How many pre-orders?

Was there ever a delivery date for this game?

Ten Ton Mojority

Exactly!!!
No sense in arguing who has the moral highground.If my money was in the only thing i would care about is when do I get the game I just paid for.

To me ,the anxiety comes from whether or not the game gets made.My problem is am i getting something for my money.

Whatever DP does internally is their problem.

So there is a delivery date!!!
I asked earlier and got crickets

And really hasn't since B/W dropped out.

Yes great game,great code.......but did not ship that way

How much does St.Roger,the saviour,cost?
Wheres that check coming from?
How long will it take?
As for roger sharpe he is the leading guy in securing licenses in the business . Proven so and with direct connections where needed so yeah having him on board does actually mean a lot .

Damn....thats scary

hell yeah!!!!!

I thought so too,and so did my op buddies.
