At the MWGC, didn't Jack say that they bid something like $200/game licensing fees on The Hobbit and didn't get it. I can't exactly remember but it is in this video:

Quoted from jarjarisgod:I remember him mentioning that Stern pays $200 per game and that he paid significantly more than that for WOZ. Don't recall him mentioning The Hobbit, but perhaps he did...
You are jogging my memory, that sounds right. I think he said they offered $400/game for The Hobbit and didn't get it. But I don't feel like digging through the video to see for sure. 
And I could be imagining the whole Hobbit thing. 
Quoted from jarjarisgod:I found it! It's at the 29 minute mark right on the nose. And I totally misremembered it. [

He said that he paid 6 times what Stern normally pays for a license and that a year from now when Stern goes to get The Hobbit they're going to have to pay $200 a machine to get it.
Cool, thanks. Between the two of us, we disremembered it about half right!
