I have not yet played a WoZ and have not pre-ordered.

Jack spoke at the MPE last year and he will do so again this year. He has an absolute passion for pinball. He believes in what JJP is doing, right or wrong. His conviction is quite evident and unquestionable. It will be interesting to hear what he has to say this year.

His conviction to provide the best possible machine has led to a long delay in WoZ. I would hate to see his passion to provide the highest quality modern machine be JJP's undoing.

He believes to his core that this game will bring back pinball to the almost extinct coin-op market. I asked if he saw a market beyond the home use only era that we see today. He blew me off and related a story to a diffrent machine at one time in his past did well on location when others said it would not. He truly believes this pin will revive the general public interest in pinball. Not so sure I agree with his assesment and his intended sales goals. The delay in the release has not helped his case imo.

Would JJP have been better off by releasing a game with unfinished code as Stern does knowing the shipping delay was getting extremely long? This seems to be an accepted business model for Stern.

In the end, pinball in general benefits with JJP in the game. I hope the finished product is the first of many great pins yet to come.
