Quoted from wesman:
You sold your game??? I thought you were keeping it....
As usual in the weird biz of pinball, info trickles out, and maybe...maybe later statements are made. Maybe.
Yeah, the right offer came around and have been exploring other games. I bought the first 4 JJP games NIB but due to their cost and lack of space I can't keep buying every title lol (wish I could!).
Based on what Kaneda said it wasn't Butch's decision, he didn't want to leave, and was a total shock to him. Again this is just what Kaneda reported. However, according to Kaneda Butch's daughter reached out to him and said "It was definitely unexpected and abrupt, he never would of quit working for JJP. They made it clear they didn't have a role for him anymore and that it was permanent. We were all in disbelief, very sad". I'm not sure who could do a better job then Butch with JJP manuals and tech support. I'm sure there's other things at play that we are not hearing about. Companies make changes all the time.
