Quoted from hoby1:

Only 5 of us own GBs. I sticking with 1.05 because Stern shipped it with it and is a 11/10/16 build date. Gotta mean something

could just mean they had a bunch of formatted sd cards that they didn't want to redo.

Never updated a Spike game........I know there is an SD card but what has to be done with it. Dont you just upload with a zip drive. ?
Also have you had any issues with 1.11

PINBALL GAME SOFTWARE UPDATE INSTRUCTIONS

1) Download the latest code for your game by visiting
http://www.sternpinball.com/game-code
and following the links to the software update
file for your specific game model.
2) Place game software update file (GAMENAME-VERSION.spk)
into the root directory of a blank FAT32-formatted USB flash drive.
Do not place more than one .spk files at a time in the root directory
of the USB flash drive.
3) Use backbox power switch to turn off game.
4) Plug the USB flash drive into a CPU board USB connector at CN20 or CN21.
5) Turn the game on.
6) The game will automatically begin the software update and the following
message will be displayed: "APPLYING UPDATE PLEASE WAIT".
IMPORTANT: DO NOT turn the pinball machine off while this message
is displayed. This message may remain on the screen a long period of time.
7) When the display indicates "UPDATE COMPLETE", turn the game off.
8) Remove the USB flash drive from the CPU board.
9) Turn the game on to play pinball!

**It's important to have a blank fat32 formatted usb flash drive**
If you need more help, pm me and I will help you as best as I can. It's actually super easy as long as you follow the steps right. The usb connector is in the backbox.

I also have had no issues that I know of with 1.11. I'm also a software guy so I always prefer to run the latest and greatest with anything.
