Quoted from Whysnow:That is pretty insulting sounding. I think people have also woken up to the fact that what they imagined they were getting (an exact replica which would be collectible and hold value and startc delivering months ago) is not reality (a copy with different and unknown hardware sold in unlimited numbers with some evident problems and delays of delivery).
Many also have changed where they want to go with their collection in the past year. Wishy-washy would insinuate that they are going to change their mind again in the near future and want back in on MMR. The reality is NEW things have come to light inthe past year and PPS was not able to capitalize on their previous hype machine.
Wish-washy is not the correct term. I would say front runners is more accurate. If you follow most new companies or just new games this always happens. Everyone is all in because this is the best and they must have it. A year later it is not out yet and several new things are the best and they must have it. MM is still the top ranked game on Pinside so the majority still loves the game and no new games have come close to dethroning the top 4. People still love these games and I think buyers will be happy with MMR. Some people just have to be front runners, doesn't mean they are getting the best. Just means they always have a ton tied up in preorders. We are very likely be having the same discussion this time next year about all of the games there were home runs at this years expo.
