Quoted from Firebaall:

No.
I've been a Pinball Arcade kickstarter supporter in the past, but I feel they are established enough to stand on their own feet. It's not ok to ask the fans to subsidize their income/risk any longer.
There's plenty of unlicensed tables they could produce that would not require panhandling.

This would only be their fourth one, right? TZ, ST: TNG, T2 and this new one. They still have 45 tables they didn't ask for money upfront to do. So it's not like they sit on their hands between them. Is one Kickstarter a year really worth fighting about?

Quoted from limelime20:

found this on the internet...

Has $4.5 million in annual revenue....Don't think they need a kickstart..

Well, to be fair, $4.5 million in revenues is not the same as $4.5 million in profit.
