Even though there have been delays I have appreciated the reviews that pinsiders have for MMR. I am glad UL testing is taking place, I know it has caused delays but it seems to be a good test for having a safe electronic device.
I also hoped you had some positive news, nevertheless a good and worthy thread. Let's get some reviews of the MMr at Logans here
My friend played it in Chicago @logans arcade and said it played flawless, had long lines with people ooing ahhing alot.
One update that I did see from Rick is that the gold trim is the largest percentage of the orders for the LE and the powder coats would be the first on the line when production starts. Mostly gold at first with some black possible. So if you ordered gold, you should be at head of the pack for delivery.
BRB - gonna start a thread called "Cure for ebola" where I ask people to post if they have a cure for ebola.
I've read that due to the UL delay, the MMR translites are being improved. One of the bright sides of the delay.
I think the delay can only be good. More time for the prototypes to be out in the wild and fine tuning can be done. As long as its 1st qtr 15 ill be happy.

I have mixed feeling. On one hand I see the benefit of getting things perfected to the max, on the other hand I'd like to get my hands on it already. Hard to have the patience for the UL testing to be finished, the more I read about it the more worried I get it'll take a while still before it's finished.
Still, I'd rather take a perfect game a bit later than half baked now. My glass is half full
I was told by a friend that up close games at Stern recently , especially playfields and cabinets we're Beautiful. As far as translite being dull ? Im hoping down the road a back box light kit or update is available to change light brightness and color.
Quoted from Pablito:I've read that due to the UL delay, the MMR translites are being improved. One of the bright sides of the delay.
Cabinet decals are also going to be addressed to make sure the start button lines up.
Quoted from Peopleman:had long lines with people ooing ahhing alot.
Lol! Please don't over do it!
Quoted from TaylorVA:and DMDs will be fully colorized….well one can wish.
ooohhhhh, aaahhhhh!

brightness is adjustable from the factory. Their issue is when off they are darker then the originals.
Quoted from teekee:ooohhhhh, aaahhhhh!
Jeez Tony...Sour grapes much? I know MMR impacts your business in some ways. However you need to remain professional. I certainly would think twice about buying something from you given your recent comments and criticisms no matter how perfect your stuff is. Accept that the remakes are going to happen and move along. There are still plenty of people who will buy $8000.00 Earthshakers and other HEP's. Your target market is not going away anytime soon.
Quoted from teekee:Lol! Please don't over do it!
You're running out of outs TeeKee. You're the Royals, MMr is Bumgarner...you just don't know the series is over.

Impacts my business? I'm in the self storage business so not sure how in the world MMr would affect that.
If you have to think twice about buying a pin from me because of my comments and criticisms here on Pinside than I would rather not sell a pin to you to be honest...
Quoted from TheFamilyArcade:You're the Royals, MMr is Bumgarner...
I am Royalty and MMr is a Bum Game... is that what you just said? See we do agree!
Personally, I have 2 MMRs on order and I have never had any doubts about if I wanted to stay on the list. One is going on location for the public to enjoy, which I know others are planning to do as well. Public MMRs are going to be a great opportunity for a lot of people to get to play the greatest pinball machine ever made, for the first time. The second one, my wife literally wants to put in the bedroom so she can play it whenever she wants! MM is her favorite game.
In terms of timing my bet is we have it for the Christmas tree, but I'm a glass-is-half-full kind of guy.

much excitement in the bedroom then...

Sage advice, I couldn't agree more.

This one, I don't so much agree with. His 8k ES is already down to $7500, he couldn't sell it for 8k. 2k by Christmas!
Quoted from Glarrownage:This one, I don't so much agree with. His 8k ES is already down to $7500, he couldn't sell it for 8k. 2k by Christmas!
Wow, you're starting to scare me... I have plenty of fans but you know too much about me. You're getting close to 'stalker' level! My blinds will be up tonight if you want to take a peek!

Speaking of stalkers, I think Rick should be a little worried. You seem to have an obsession with PPS/MMR since you pop up in every single MMR thread.
I actually feel bad for the OP since I believe he sincerely wanted to have one thread on all of pinside that could be just positive discussion about MMR. As soon as I saw your name, I knew that wasn't going to happen.

I think you (and a few others) just overreact. I simply poked fun at Peopleman's post cuz I figured it was another bogus post. Seems like a lot of those in the MMr threads lately… I must've been correct because his account is now frozen. My innocent comment targeted at Peopleman gets crazy reactions from some of the typical overreacting guys. I just play along.
Let the positive discussion continue!

Sure, the multiple Hondanut accounts don't help any discussion but let's not pretend that's the reason you are in this thread. Take a look at your thread history, it speaks for itself. But yeah, I agree let the positive discussion continue.
OP if you want some good info message jalpert. He had a very good experience with a recent hands on.
I positively will post if I ever receive my refund, as promised by the dealer that I purchased from.
I haven't followed the mmr remake much. I will have to see one up close to see if I want to make headphone kits for the mmr. Time will tell I guess. Looks like a nice game
Quoted from nipenzo:at this point i just want my game....im positive this will be my last purchase from pps
Guessing next machine will go smoother.
Quoted from Ed209:Guessing next machine will go smoother.
I'm assuming the UL thing is a one time hassle to get certification for the overall electronics/electrical system being used in their design? If not, hopefully it will only require a minor review of any changes. Regardless, they should be able to navigate everything smoothly the second time around as long as Stern continues to assemble the machines.
I also have 2 pre ordered. One is supposed to go to a comedy club in NYC. Hoping Tina Fay can stop by and sign the translight for me.
What I meant by positive updates ,mods, or whatever! Just tired of negative imput. I would like to see a real nice topper from Joe @ lasserific that ties into game play ? May under cab lights as well ?

Teek, you used to be so cool on RGP. No, wait; you weren't.
But, this ain't about any ONE Pinsider. Can't wait til you patient folks get your well deserved MMR's!
Awesome sauce!

Agree with you 100%. I was hoping for a Q1 15 delivery anyway so if they fix a few small things in the meantime that's great news for us owners.
I have played the mmr gold yesterday for the first time at Dpo in holland. This is probably the first machine in europe
Overall the game rocks! It looks amazing, it plays amazing and for all the gold orders. Don't worry it looks great and it fits the decals very nice. The gold trim really stands out.
The only thing missing is a color dmd ( however that will come later ) the game was positioned between a woz and twd so the animations looked a bit dated. Logical of course because it is 16 years old however with color dmd the game will be even more amazing.
I can't say anything bad about it and the reviews at DPO for as far is i've heard were only positive as well.
Anyone know if side rails etc are made to be easily removed as planned ? Planning on mirror polish or chrome .
Quoted from whitey:Anyone know if side rails etc are made to be easily removed as planned ? Planning on mirror polish or chrome .
Iirc the decals were cut below the moutong tape to make for easier without damaging them.
Usually Rick posts some news on Mondays.... last I saw was just about the game going over seas to DPO... which he said photos and videos will likely be provided. Still waiting on that ultra positive PPS update.
I'm cool with waiting just a little bit longer. Really like what they are doing by testing the pre production units different places in real world situations. It really makes me feel great knowing the machine holds up well under extra ordinary conditions as mine will be HUO.
Keep up the great work Rick and the team.
Cannot wait to add this beauty into the gamesroom!

Every MMR thread is a positive one, for me at least.image.jpg
