Quoted from Hammerhead:

I don't understand these statements. Both are quite rare, but at least there's a slight chance you would have the opportunity to play BBB in order to develop an opinion on game play. On the flip side, there are only nine confirmed KPs out there according to IPDB, so your likelihood of actually seeing one is very rare, not to mention playing one. How could anyone state a preference for KP without no basis to draw from?
Using this argument, how could any manufacturer remake a game that almost no one has ever played, and not have some trepidation about their sales?

Quoted from arcademojo:

I’m going to go out on a limb here but can foresee a second line running before the end of 2018. Meaning by 2019 we will probably see two new remakes for that year. Or one remake and one original game.

Quoted from Aurich:

It's real, but I wouldn't hold your breath until you see games shipping, these guys haven't proven themselves yet, and stopping work on Pinball Circus to go down the Kingpin rabbit hole might not inspire confidence. I don't like the new art they're trying to do for it either.
We'll see if there's a legal fight too, it might get messy.
Put it this way, I think Kingpin is a fun game, even with software that's not 100% baked, but the entire project isn't something I'd be an early adopter on.

Quoted from pkiefert:

One very important difference. They all took money to fund the development of the games. We have not, nor will we, take preorders to fund the development of the games.
