    I’m in, but pretty much got on the list while at CAX. It is a bit silly, but also too cool.

    My only regret is that I’ve got a coffee table prepaid for the new house, that’s gonna have to vacate to make room for pong.

    Quoted from IdahoRealtor:

    Is your Pac-Man cocktail going into the same room? I bet they'd make a nice pair.

    She's gonna cram the cocktail into her office.

    I'm gonna cram Pong into the loft. Now I'm gonna have one "coffee table" too many.. but such is life.

    We're picking ours up tomorrow. Looking forward to getting it set up!

    Well, this is a bit of a bummer. Out of the box, it looks like this.

    Additionally, no manuals, no power cable. No hint how to open it, and no obvious latches or anything to push up the glass.

    We'll see how BBO handles this. (I ordered before Norcal got signed up as a distributor).

    Thanks Bryce. I appreciate the nudge, even if this wasn't your problem to solve .

    Got the call just now, just a bit over an hour since they've opened up. We apparently got the wrong box (the demo box). They're gonna get back to me on how to make the logistics work, but it sounds like BBO is on it. Shit happens, it's how it's handled when it happens. And so far, BBO's stepping up to the plate to take care of things.

    Much better. BBO came out, brought the brute squad, loaded/unloaded, and this is looking like the glorious piece of art it should be, and they did it in <4 hours from when they opened after I filed the ticket.

    Finally got mine dragged upstairs and set up. It works! Had to dial the sound back a bit.

    Has anyone figured out the Bluetooth part? I don’t see in the manual how to enable pairing.

    Happy to demo ours in Tracy CA.
