I might add that since Toy Story, I no longer have the full jjp line up to draw in players. And I no longer need the jjp pins for tech support, or to open up and show off to potential customers.

You have a killer collection!!
Yeah godfather 3 sucks. But the new version is at least shorter. So yes it is better. If you are gojng to watch a godfather 3, make sure it’s the new one.
Almost watchable actually. Just don’t go in expecting anything on par with the first two.
It’s a movie that got made because Coppola basically had no choice. Really never should have been made.

Winona Rider was supposed to play Mary in 3 but got ill and was replaced at the last minute by Sophia Coppola.
Oh man I'm excited! I can see it now...........Immobiliare Final Wizard Mode...........Joey Zaza murder multiball (with Andy Garcia screaming ZAZA!) for every jackpot shot and then a special "Michael Corleone Silent Scream Super Jackpot video clip"
Why am I stuck with Godfather 3 references!!!

I knew you were kidding. After how you were treated by them, I knew there was no way a reconciliation was possible.
Quoted from Furio:They are planning a second release for the end of this year, so it's not impossible that it is both.
I heard it was Road to Perdition to follow up Godfather with Tom Hanks and Danial Craig call outs..
Will be interesting to see what pricing is on the game A JJP LE for $12k is comparable to a Stern LE at $13k, cost $1k less, has a head made out of wood versus sheet metal, a proper lockdown bar instead of Home Depot latches, an actual lock for the head instead of two 25 cent bolts, and the power button in the proper location.
Hopefully there's not a price increase for LE's to $13k to match Stern.
I'm really hoping Godfather is a hit but I kinda have my doubts. I know the Abess family are wealthy but I'm not sure how patient they would be with two subpar selling pins back to back.
Especially after the strong enthusiasm for GnR.
Quoted from PanzerFreak:Even after buying a Bond LE for $13k? A JJP LE for $12k is comparable, cost $1k less, has a head made out of wood versus sheet metal, a proper lockdown bar instead of Home Depot latches, an actual lock for the head instead of two 25 cent bolts, and the power button in the proper location.
I think you mentioned a lot of stuff no one cares about…
For those who need to sell a pin to get Godfather, wonder what will be moving?
I’ll be looking at that market and wait for 2nd hand market for Godfather if it’s a good game.
Quoted from Charliew65:I think you mentioned a lot of stuff no one cares about…
If that was the case JJP would have followed suit years ago.
Quoted from zermeno68:For those who need to sell a pin to get Godfather, wonder what will be moving?
For me it could be any one of five of six jjp pins I have.
LTG : )
Quoted from PanzerFreak:JJP LE for $12k is comparable to a Stern LE at $13k
I agree, yet I still feel there really is no comparison in my opinion between these two manufacturers. I’d say JJP LE is more comparable to a Stern SLE but that’s giving Stern more credit than I think they’re due.
No disrespect meant to Stern either. I just think JJP executes the themes with better integration and immersion of the audio, visual and other aspects. Stern kept pinball going, after all. But any time a dream theme is a possibility, I always hope it goes to JJP.
I'm really hoping JJP knocked it out of the park with this. Definitely going to wait it out. Too much risk helps suppress my fomo.
Quoted from sevenrites:But any time a dream theme is a possibility, I always hope it goes to JJP.
Until they butchered Toy Story.
Quoted from rai:Until they butchered Toy Story.
I think Lawlor butchered toy story. He's a washed up hack.
Quoted from SLAMT1LT:Take your place at the table... Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw or Slytherin.
No way is it Godfather. Even with all my skill and experience as a pinball game creator could I make anything even remotely fun with that license. Masterpiece movie... a stinking turd of a pinball game.
It's Harry Potter.
'Godfather: ULTIMATE Harry Potter Pro Edition' on Future Pinball by next week.
(He could do it too.)
Maybe they can reuse gabby gabby mech and you have to beat Connie like her husband until Sonny shows up at your house and beats the crap out of you ….joking

Quoted from rai:Until they butchered Toy Story
I wouldn’t call it butchered. Still looks great and shoots well, no corners really cut on the build and etc but the stupid license limiting them to #4 instead of the whole franchise I think is what killed it more than anything.
Quoted from CrazyLevi:If you are gojng to watch a godfather 3, make sure it’s the new one.
Almost watchable actually. ...
Hey we never knowm, this could be like when GB came out and the peeps that loved GB2 Secret of the Ooze all slithered out of the darkness.
Quoted from PanzerFreak:... Factor in other items such as a mostly sheet metal head on Stern's, and no proper Williams style lockdown bar or head lock and it's easy to see which game has the higher build of materials cost.....
Quoted from PanzerFreak:Stern sheet metal head, no proper lockdown bar mech, and bolts to lock the head instead of a proper lock mech = cheap…yet prices have gone up like crazy.
Quoted from PanzerFreak:... has a head made out of wood versus sheet metal, a proper lockdown bar instead of Home Depot latches, an actual lock for the head instead of two 25 cent bolts...

Quoted from PanzerFreak:Hopefully there's not a price increase for LE's to $13k to match Stern.
Will be pretty laughable if they try that shit, maybe they get away with it if it was Harry Potter but not Godfather.
Quoted from manadams:Will be pretty laughable if they try that shit, maybe they get away with it if it was Harry Potter but not Godfather.
Definitely will be a price increase. Agree GF is going to be a tough sell right now unless the game is just bonkers.

Sounds like Slash on guitar.
Get ready for the shock of shockers.
Jersey Jack confirms it's actually... Godfather.

Yay?

It felt like “I can name that tune in 3 notes”. If that’s not Slash, it’s copyright infringement.
My wife's gonna be pissed. First with Toy Story ending up being Toy Story 4, now a Harry Potter tease only to be Godfather. Why pour salt in the wound?
Quoted from honkbahh:My wife's gonna be pissed. First with Toy Story ending up being Toy Story 4, now a Harry Potter tease only to be Godfather. Why pour salt in the wound?
They could be hinting they have the license and it's coming eventually but to put it out there right before Godfather is not the smartest move.
