Just don’t tell her what your thinking 
Quoted from kms_pinball:You guys give the best, i mean BEST advice! Yeah, what could possibly go wrong with that plan?

Amazing game when dialed in properly. Don't overlook this. I am in love with it. Let Zach's loss be your gain.

At this price I don't think he is taking a loss 
Anybody looking for a Quoted from Skyemont:Whats wrong with Deadpool is the question. New game, good savings = sold!
I'm actually very surprised that this is still for sale. I love my DP pro and when that thing is hooked up to a shaker motor and a sub the sound is phenomenal.

Wow! You seriously have a fun lineup now!
DP is just fun pinball. Candy on a stick!
Oh and as a +1 selling bonus. Deadpool comes with additional corner brackets at the top front of the cabinet beside the lockdown bar to prevent the cab from shifting.
Quoted from andrewket:Wow, I'm surprised this hasn't already sold.
Guess the game isn't the draw stern was hoping for. I've got new pin-itis, but this isn't doing it for me.

For on location results-
From RandomKG
“My DPLE has been on loc for a week. It easily set a record for most earnings in first week (by a lot). And that’s going up against ten other outstanding machines”
From Highprotein
“My dp pro did over 50% better in the 1st week than any other game has done in 1 week prior ever (unreal).”
So if DP isn’t the draw stern wanted why is it outperforming all of the other amazing games these guys have on location by 50%???
Sounds like you simply don’t like the game and aren’t looking at on location performance.
Not my opinion, it’s fact backed by earnings.
Quoted from TheLaw:We are light years from that here.
Aren’t light years a measure of distance and not time?

Because on location doesnt mean shit in regards to the games actual quality.
Put that next to medieval madness. Which will do better on location? DP. So now DP is better than MM.... not exactly.
So yes, if you are a person that plans to make money on this, I also am surprised it hasn't sold. But theme puts quarters in the coin box, not always quality.
Everytime i put a new pin on route, of course it does better than something 6 months or even a year old. I dont think earnings make that pin a big hit when it comes to a pinhead. 
Quoted from davijc02:Aren’t light years a measure of distance and not time?
I think that’s what he meant.
Both of the quotes were from operators who said that DP has made more money on location in its first week by 50% and 55% then any other game in there respective first weeks that they’ve owned, including MM, GB, AFMrm, SW, IM, GotG.
That’s pretty impressive, and does speak to a high degree of success on Sterns part for building a good game.
I know all games come down to a large degree of taste, and if your opinion says it’s a good game or not.
I’ve played over 300 games personally on my DP pro, I love the thing, and quality is great.
Lastabilty is great in my book as well, but that’s just an opinion.
What I stated before was fact, not opinion, and that does speak to a well designed game. As pinball machines are still built for making money.
Now if they built it just to make one guy happy and that guy was you, I guess they tanked.
I guess it depends on your base numbers. If 50% more is $500/week then that's good but 50% more of $100/week is significantly less.
Quoted from Doctor6:Guess the game isn't the draw stern was hoping for. I've got new pin-itis, but this isn't doing it for me.
Seems to be selling pretty well. Not as hot as IMDN but people went nuts for it. I own both and personally prefer DP but they are both great games and couldn't be more different. If you want a new pin why not buy either BM66 or DI which are on your wish list. Seems silly come knock DP in a for sale thread because want a new game but not it.
Quoted from ezelljon:Which one is Zach? Is he the likable one? I thought these dorks lived in Buffalo.
No Greg is the one everyone likes. Zach is the snarky side kick that likes to slap his friend for being insubordinate! lol Zach is the one with the dark sun tan from being under those Pin Stadium lights all the time. lol
Why has it not sold? It's only $400 off retail delivered to your door NIB. This deal is good for his neighbor but not for anyone that would need to travel to pick up the machine. As soon as a local decides to buy one it should sell.

Only half of this is true

Dang 400 is a lot of money to me

Leave Motordome alone, Austin Powers.

That's poors talk for big rollers like you Zach.
Quoted from Doctor6:So now DP is better than MM
Based solely on gameplay I'll take DP over Shoot The Castle all day.
One thing i really like about deadpool is the interaction with the screen. I look at it more often now than on any other game i have owned.
DeadPool license has a strong appeal. It feels arcade era and retro, although the DP movies are recent.
Stern’s target home market for new pins is men over 40. Many from this group weren’t familiar with the films nor the comics. They just weren’t on their radar. So it was a fresh theme WITH beautiful art, great rules, insane video game and lcd integration and it was available in the pro model. This pro should sell fine.
Stern’s target location market is adults, or 21 to 70 year olds. Those under 40 probably knew both comics and films, and genuinely like the theme. So when they see one on location, they’ll approach it to look at and will often play too. It has a strong pull, (see crack cocaine).
IMO a DeadPool themed pinball machine is a third genre for this license. Previously occurring: 1) comics via print media. 2) movies via film media. So when Stern announced they were making this, it became the official entrant as 3) pinball via real world. These are like dimensions of Deadpool, of how Deadpool exists. So there are three media that defined Deadpool .... three dimensions ... right ..... or are there more?
How about delivering Deadpool via a video game that is controlled with a console and integrated with a themed pinball machine? aka they had babies, why you’d have Stern’s DP Pinball. You could play a themed pinball machine in the 3rd dimension, but when you play a video / pinball game, you are in the 4th dimension. By playing Stern’s DP pro pinball machine, and you are literally breaking through the fourth wall.
That is something unique and deserving of the next genre designation, right? Following recently added # 3) is 4) video game / pinball machine integration via real world real time media. Congrats to Stern for creating two of the 4 dimensions of Deadpool with their Deadpool pro pinball.
Having put 100 games on a DPLE, it is time to compare with a local DP pro.
Quoted from jgentry:That's poors talk for big rollers like you Zach.
Oh yeah you’re one to talk.
Quoted from chuckwurt:Leave Motordome alone, Austin Powers.
Hey that’s a fun game, baby, yeah!
Quoted from ectobar:Based solely on gameplay I'll take DP over Shoot The Castle all day.
Yeah, no haha
Deadpool is an excellent game ! The whole problem is where Zach lives. Location, Location, Location.
Somebody suck it up and drive there. Has to be somebody within a few hour radius that wants the game.
Once you get back home with it and start playing it you will be happy you drove there. It might not be a stellar road trip, But help the guy out.
I had to look at this for sale thread just because of the number of posts ! ....... Holy cow. 
Quoted from ezelljon:Which one is Zach? Is he the likable one? I thought these dorks lived in Buffalo.
No it's worse - they live in Indiana. Greg is the likeable one, but Zach is ok too.
Everyone who really really wanted a DP has one. Anyone who wants one I suspect would rather pay thw few extra hundred for the NIB experience. It is a good price for the game but I think the appeal of the unboxing of a new game is worth the difference to most people I think.

That along with the convenience of having it delivered to your driveway...
With a little luck some body within an hour or two drive that would like to save some money will spot the ad.
