So the moral is? Jjp is not the next coming? Bally,stern,Williams.gottlieb, they are pinball machines folks,, machines break, they need tweaking and adjustments. Personally fixing bugs gives me a sense of accomplishment.

At least you can be sure jack stands behind his product, and has a support staff waiting to help

Yes stern is awesome, I'm a big fan
But the op was bringing up issues with woz not stern
Fwiw I've owned two nib sterns and have yet to find an issue
I've also owned 3 huo sterns w very low plays and had an opto go bad once
Pretty good reliability if you ask me

Well I'm happy with my metle, if what I got out of the box is any indication Iam ready for star trek, f-ck man you guys are too criticle, I have a mint congo, and TOTAN I'm willing to let them go for the newest stern title.(star trek, Steve richie)
I don't want to bad mouth jjp , but it's not so easy to send out a NIB game without an issue is it jjp? But if you really want to go back to the announcement of 1-11 spooky pod cast you can hear jjp tell how it is going to be different with woz(but it's not)I'm not sayin that woz won't be awesome I'm just sayin let's call a spade a spade and be honest about the situation.all new businesses have a learning curve including mine.lesson learned?Oh, and thanks mc cune I think?
