    Quoted from pinballlife:

    the pinball public REALLY wanted true progression in pinball they would be the sales leader.

    Pinball public doesn’t want to pay 10k for a game. If P3 was in line with a stern premium, I’d already own one. It’s a shame that awesome innovation costs so much.

    Quoted from the9gman:

    guess i should have put a disclaimer on that .....vari-targets take up a lot of space

    Wrong answer. The right answer is: bring back vari-targets.

    So you’d rather have all those old dated dot matrix animations as opposed to playing through all the iconic scenes of the first three movies in full HD with all the sounds and call outs?

    Interesting.

    And the comic book edition of Stern SW blows the Data East art out of the water.

    I’m so glad they made Star Wars again and did it justice. There are few games that are worse than Data East SW for me. Some games do have great dots. That’s not one of them.

    Quoted from adborto:

    I’d like to own a P3 one day. Would be great to see a licensed theme by them.

    What licensed theme would you like to see P3 do that you’d pay 10k for?

    Barrier to entry to P3 is just too much for me and I think a lot of others. Once you’re in it’s awesome that additional games are only 3k.

    Quoted from Rdoyle1978:

    Buy one Stern LE or basically any JJP game and you're pretty much there already!

    Sure. But you didn’t mention all the spooky games, AP games, and stern pros. Way cheaper if you want NIB.

    Quoted from CLEllison:

    HARRY POTTER! I'd literally pay $15K if it was actually super dynamic and had more than one bash toy.

    Gerry. Just for fun, if Harry Potter costs 1mm bucks to license and you get all the assets. What would P3 have to cost to cover it if you were a first time buyer or a person just needing the Harry Potter kit?
