    If I had to guess... Enchanted Castle

    #4 10 years ago

    i am working on one for there, Jesse is working on one for another location. i will let him reveal that.

    #5 10 years ago

    I know EC is getting a woz for sure, not sure who the distributor is. Curious where the other OZ is going now (beercade)?

    This place would be most fitting:

    They've had a few of the original munchkins at a screening there

    Hopefully it will go to Gameworks...and we will see if it earns more than the current pinball lineup...

    #7 10 years ago

    I am the distributor for the Enchanted Castle one.

    Great news. I better get there before they go to shit. It's inevitable!

    #18 10 years ago

    Sorry about this confusion but we will actually not be having WOZ at the Stern launch party tonight. There was a miscommunication about this. Our fault, sorry.

    BUT...The party should be pretty awesome tonight at 7. We will be projecting an overhead shot of the main tournament table onto our new 20' mega-jumbo-tron movie screen!

    We will have the following games on hand for the Metallica launch tonight:
    STERN GAMES:
    Metallica Pro-3 tables
    ACDC Premium
    ACDC PRO
    Avengers Premium
    Avengers Pro
    Avatar
    X MEN
    Transformers

    Also the awesome dudes at Pincade hooked us up with:
    The Addams Family
    Theatre of Magic
    Twilight Zone
    The Shadow

    Hope to see everyone later.

    #19 10 years ago

    Damn and I was hoping to see pictures of the lines on WOZ vs Metallica I am sure this thread would have quickly went downhill had this really taken place.

    #20 10 years ago

    only question is, why not/who requested it?

    seems like the perfect head to head (other than both have incomplete code curently) and would be awesome to be able to play both side by side in one spot!

    #21 10 years ago

    Yeah, we spent like 6 hours at HQ last week trying to fix the TOTAN. Did the best we could with TZ, stuff seems stable where non-pinheads won't notice but most of us would be frustrated. These things go bad FAST in the wild .

    Guessing Stern didn't want WOZ to ruin their launch party. Sign of Fear.

    #23 10 years ago

    Or somebody, may have thought it was in bad taste to do it.

    Quoted from TomGWI:

    More like sign of respect from the ones throwing the launch party. I don't think it is unreasonable for Stern to want the focus of a 'release party' to be on their new pin. There will be plenty of time for pinheads to see & play both JJP and Stern Pins side by side. It's really not that big of a deal IMO. Flame suit engage.

    I agree. Poor taste to have WOZ unveiling at the Stern launch party.

    I was trying to be funny. Hence the People have to relax about JJP vs Stern crap.

    Some of us still like both companies and will support both. I want pinball to grow, not die.

    I played HQ's TOTAN a bit last night and it was in pretty good shape. It looks like they've straight removed the TZ.

    That said, the general play quality on them has gotten better, and hopefully the tables at both HQ and Emporium end up being able to handle crowds.

    It truly is incredible to how fast they can go downhill. I can just hear the sound of infants mashing the flippers and leaving 4 player games left in the lurch. Pinball on free play out in the wild with the monsters is truly a nightmare.

    Quoted from Whysnow:

    only question is, why not/who requested it?

    I thought it was a little odd that Pincades was breaking the news of what titles that Emporium would have for their expansion before they broke the news themselves and announced a Grand opening party. I'm guessing the cat was not to be let out of the bag just yet?

    Metallica party should be a blast. Jumbo tron?! Yeah-eee-yeaaaaaaah!

    #29 10 years ago

    The Heavy Hand of Stern strikes again !

    #30 10 years ago

    Woz was in the works for Emporium prior to learning about the lauch party, it was in just before friday, per sterns request we waited, it will be there in a couple days, i agree both companies should Exist, Me as a dist. for jjp i still buy sterns, And as far as breaking the news of what pins were there I sold them to emporium ! It was also a little advertisement bump for them, they have been very dedicated customers of Pincades over the last year. Dan and Doug are great guys (emporium owners), there are more pins to come and some rare vids as wellin the next weeks!
    As far as the upkeep of there pins, they have a awesome tech that will be working on them(Gavins Game Service).

    Ill post when i drop it off fellas! As well follow Emporium on facebook for new Pinball Machines and Vids coming in.

    I spent quite a bit of time getting that TOTAN up and running properly. I dropped it off a few days ago. Had some serious issues but all bugs should be cleared out right now.

    Quoted from devlman:

    Thanks again for coming out and working on the pins. I can't get away from my day job enough to keep HQ going myself. At this point I am just doing it to support what I sold them, not getting paid or anything like that. John is the man and helped out on a few different occasions there. I finally pulled the TZ yesterday, going to go through it and decide if it should go back in or not. I have a feeling this game has a bit too much on the pf to go wrong in a free play environment.
