Quoted from jellikit:Too bad no license for RAZA to see it battling the others, maybe it can be pitted against American Pinball in the non-license wars.
Radioactive Space Monsters vs. Tom Sawyer!
Quoted from freakandgeek:Adult males 18 - 34.
People that rent. These are not pinball buyers.

IT DOESN'T MATTER.
Spooky has a great thing going. They are making 750 games. They will sell out.
EVen their awful previous license of Rob Zombie sold out.
If Stern licensed Stranger Things and it sold 750 games, it would be a disaster. Spooky's smart business plan more or less inoculates them from the usual potential licensing parameters and pratfalls.
Quoted from jeffspinballpalace:Which brings up the old question ... if Spooky can sell all the machines in a month, shouldn’t they figure a way to churn them out faster than 18 months? Asking someone to wait 6 mo is about the limit of what is reasonable. Spooky needs to expand, in spite of what Charlie thinks.
If Spooky sells it, they need to build it, and that means quickly. Maybe their new model should be sell however many can be built in nine months. In which case Spooky needs more horsepower.
Charlie has been ridiculously upfront and transparent about this.
If he expands, he believes he'll have to contract. That means periodic layoffs. He doesn't want to do that.
Don't see the obsession with trying to convince him to bite off more than he can (or wants) to chew. Pinball is hard. Boutique pinball is REALLY GODDAMN HARD. People forget that because Spooky are the only ones in history to make it look easy.
And while waiting 6 months - 2 years seems like a long time, track record shows people will get their games and they won't see their money stolen. Again, this doesn't really seem like a big deal, but it is.
So let Spooky be Spooky.
Quoted from JeffF:Anybody else like reading popular threads on Pinside over a cup(or two) of coffee for pure entertainment value?
No, I think most of us are here because our employers pay us to be here, or because we are doing extensive pinball data-mining research for the government.
