My number 1 want is a star wars based on the original trilogy. Scooby doo and toy story would also be great for pins and for music I think they should go with Billy Joel (so much material there)

Quoted from valgalder:Iron Maiden is the only band left that deserves one as they're actually still active, relevant and good.
Agree Maiden would be good. Got to give props to one of my all time favorites. Still together.
I think Stern should do a battle of the bands style machine with a few different bands featured:
Queen, Bon Jovi, Rush
Either that or a mixed theme game that has the features band doing something other than just having a concert:
Nirvana saves the world from Aliens. Pearl Jam lost in time. Etc.
No offense to all the iron maiden fans but i feel that this icense is a very exclusive market. I wish for you guys to get the theme but i just dont see myself or even the other pinheads i know purchasing that title.

That is a very interresting concept... Jeremy spoke, while jon was living on a prayer

Partially agreed, but Iron Maiden has a bigger following than Rob Zombie. Might not be Stern but sooner or later Iron Maiden will be made.

No doubt, i think this is a spooky license. I dont feel iron maiden would fill the astrodome 4 days in a row. I mifht be wrong but i just dont feel it.
Elvira 3 from Wizbang then AC/DC VE most likely Luci since they are worth about as much as the LE's then Star Wars.
Oh and unfortunately the Star Wars is going to have the same crappy pricing that Batman 66 had with the Prem, LE and SLE.

No.
LTG : )

I wouldn't think so. Star Wars will be more geared to operators. So they need to keep the price at normal.

Battle of the Bands. Good idea.
And nobody's really done a grunge era pin.... and I'm guessing several 70s metalheads like it that way. But I'll bet many people would dig such a thing. It would be an injustice, however, if we just go from late 70s & early 80s bands straight to modern bands (with no pins!) as if the 90s never happened.
I hope the Pulp Fiction & Archer rumors are true.
If Stern does Star Wars right I bet it becomes their best selling game of all time & stays in production for a long time.
I'm aging myself for saying this but I swore JJP staff members implied over & over again how JJP had the Star Wars license. Not once or twice but many times.
How can they push out another machine when they have at least half a dozen machines with incomplete code! You people buy into this perpetual madness....
I'm wondering how they keep it a secret. Seems like there would be leaks or "spies" that would provide clues prior to official releases.
In anycase, to me it's a clean slate - they could go in any direction. I'm looking forward to the new larger color screens, expanding the possibilities of SPIKE, continuing the creativity. Not all the pins are hits.
I have no guesses but I'm still interested in knowing before anyone else.
Quoted from lancestorm:How can they push out another machine when they have at least half a dozen machines with incomplete code!
It is their legacy.

Not me. I have zero intention of buying a Stern this year. I've been on the wait for code train one too many times.
Not saying I won't buy from Stern again in the future (very happy with the code on Met and TWD), but never again will I be a pre-order guy from them. DI! Will get my NIB money this year...even over Star Wars and Guardians (two themes I really love).
No thanks on Munsters. Pulp Fiction with Zobieyeti art Jaws with Dirty Donnie art would be cool.
Let's assume there will be a VE this year. Tron or AC/DC are the two logical choices. Both would need new art. But why not just go full LCD? It's more work for them for sure.

I honestly couldn't see Jaws or Pulp fiction being of any interest to very many people. I may be wrong but I just dont see it.

I agree
Iron Maiden is definitely coming at some point. Stern was playing Iron Maiden videos at the 30th Anniversary party! They were also showing other rock videos, and every one except Iron Maiden has already been used as a theme.
Quoted from schudel5:LOL! Every time I hear the word 'table', that's what I think of. A table.
Yep My first thought was Wow!! Stern is going to start making furniture too...They are really branching out!

I also heard someone farted at that 30th anniversary party, so here comes Beavis and Butt-Head.
I guess I'm on the younger side for a pinhead, but I'm looking forward to the next generation of music pins - Pearl Jam, Chili Peppers, Nirvana, Foo Fighters, Alice in Chains, Soundgarden, Stone Temple Pilots. If Stern (or JJP) ever decides to dig into this generation of music, they'll be separating me from a lot of my dollars.

You're wrong.
Quoted from Pimp77:You're wrong.
Yeah maybe, that's just my thoughts on it. I've been wrong before....once.

I have to say, with Stern's new SPIKE system, it really can bring older themes back to life. We already have a back to the future game...but imagine that game running on SPIKE, with Christoper Lloyd and/or Thomas Wilson doing custom call outs.
Type in your high score...Then hear Biff say "what kind of stupid name is that" or "must be rough being named after a complete butthead"
Hit start..Then hear Biff say "Looky at what we have here."
"Great Scott!!! You got an extra ball!"
The sound effects and the music (theme, Power of Love, Johny B. Goode, etc,), plus the new LCD screen.

Might be tough to get Christopher Lloyd to do some custom clips...

Why so?
Quoted from burningman:he's dead....
+1 for pulp fiction here
I thought that was confirmed a hoax?
Has there ever been an Arcade themed pinball machine. I say call it "Arcadia" and pick the top 4 or 5 games (pac man, donkey kong, galaga, and centipede. Have each game have there own section of the play field. You could also utilize the LCD for those games during certain parts of the game.

He's not dead. BTTF remake would be epic. I'd be in for a Dukes of Hazzard or Knight Rider pin. First grunge pin should be Nirvana...but they should just stop doing music pins.

I forgot about the Marty sound-a-like they could use too.
I'd guess like the rest on a Star Wars theme. If it were a music theme, I'd love Queen. If it could be a machine of my hearts desire, it would be a He-Man and the Masters of the Universe pinball. I could also see a Guardians of the Galaxy as a potential theme.

Michael J Fox isn't dead either!
Despite their licensing expertise, find it hard to believe the Stern Pulp Fiction rumours. Would be instabuy for me, but doesn't seem like Stern. Dutch, Spooky, Heighway, maybe. Stern are like the Disney of pinball.
But imagine Elwin on Pulp Fiction.
Quoted from BrewersArcade:Michael J Fox isn't dead either!
I figured he'd cost too much.
Quoted from ahdelarge:It's going to be based on the original trilogy and all rumours point to 2017 release date
Who did you hear will be doing the artwork and code? I can't wait to see what Steve Ritchie has come up with.
