Quoted from Max_Badazz:Does this mean my Ghostbusters just went up in value
If he goes down for this then I think quite the opposite will happen, "this is my GB pin it was designed by a convicted pedophile but it was his last design" I wouldn't own any of his games anymore, and they will be pulled from location fast.
Quoted from MikeS:Will be interesting to see how Stern handles this for his existing (GB) and unreleased games (Iron Maiden) in the future. Can they really promote and sell his games?
If he gets convicted thats the end of any of his games being made as for existing stock I don't see anyone buying his games after this, all his other pins through the years will take a dive big time.
Quoted from InfiniteLives:They kept selling (well, trying to sell) WWE's after Hulk had his whole thing go down.
Not even close to being the same thing.
Quoted from InfiniteLives:I dunno, look at the prices of all of Jpops games. still a lot of them demand a pretty penny... People will separate the game from the designer.
Those 2 situations are night and day, have to the give the man the benefit of the doubt for now, if he is charged then the shit storm begins.
Quoted from Darth_Chris:Dwight has not done any harm to anybody why would I not want to have Ghostbuster one day ?
Wow, do u realize just by attempting to obtain images of child porn you are giving others motivation to create it, I'm a well known jack ass but I would not own GB's now and let my nephews play it, it would feel strange, but I'm not judging anyone else, its a weird situation. Lets hope its all a misunderstanding and John is innocent but it doesn't look good, I think the mods should really close this thread and not allow any others until the man has been found guilty of a crime.
Quoted from eggbert52:Just a very odd and unhealthy quote.
What exactly is unhealthy about it?
Quoted from Sparky:What about the games he helped with but didn't get credit for? I've heard him at shows say he helped out on this game or that game, and I've heard other designers say the same thing about stepping in on a project. Do you need a list of those games, too, so you don't accidentally play them?
I was speaking for myself, play what you want, and don't be a douche.
Quoted from Darth_Chris:All michael jackson music must be banned and let s not watch ghostbusters movie ever again because it reminds me of a pinball machine created by someone. Come on.
Stupid comment
Quoted from eggbert52:Scares me that people like you father a child not to mention multiple kids. Your kids will have their brains washed by a lot more crap than a pinball machine. Just ludicrous.
even more stupid
time to drain this thread, interesting to see how some of u think, actually a little frightening.
Quoted from CaptainNeo:why should it matter?
My refrigerator could have been built and designed by Jeffery Dahmer. Does that mean I should look at my fridge differently? Nope. Personal lives with equipment you own, shouldn't matter. Who gives a shit what the maker or the designer did in their personal life. All that matters is that you like the product you bought. They were a hired employee. Your money went to the company. Not the individual.
Jeffery Dahmer didn't design ur fridge, if he did you would probably think about it differently, wow the comments on this are just amazing too me, I can't believe it. If you let ur kids play a GB pin after this with the man being charged and sentenced that is of course ur choice but I couldn't, personal lives absolutely matter. 
Quoted from CaptainNeo:I know he didn't, but if he did. I wouldn't care. Because it's stupid to associate your product to a person that happened to be in that field at the time yours was built. Money goes to companies, not people.
That makes sense 
Quoted from Frax:I'm sorry, but if you think in any way I'm going to tell my 7 year old *why* he can't play a game that's been on location for half a year at our league nights, that he's already been playing for months.... well, I'm not going to type it, because I'd get banned for it, so I guess I'll just say that I find your logic a big, fat FAILBOAT.
I don't care what u do. How exactly would I prevent you from telling ur kid what he can and can't play? seems like ur having thoughts about this that have nothing to do with me, good luck on that, oh and "failboat"? lame
Quoted from pezpunk:I think it is bullshit that so many people are going out of their way to attack someone simply for not wishing to own it anymore.
I think its mostly people who are worried the value will plunge or feel weird about it yet want to keep their toy which would be easier if everyone was on the same page of "nothing wrong with keeping the game or letting my kids play it" which is a personal choice so either accept it or sell it but why would you give another owner any kind of grief because they feel uncomfortable? that's just foolish
