PPS are just a licensee of mechanical pinball , like farsight, nothing to do with PPS
Scientific own the rights not PPS

You can't devalue the brand by blowing out inventory and damaging the brand

Quoted from bobukcat:

PPS collects royalties for ROMs, reproduction parts (that aren't generic), anything with WMS art on it, etc. so it's hard to believe it's not them in this case, though I'm sure there could be some exclusion for digital reproduction.

It has nothing to do with PPS they are a licensee of mechanical pinball and merchandise only

Quoted from gtxjoe:

Bummer. Who owns the Williams Bally pinball licenses?

Different people for different products have licenses

Bally itself have shoes, casinos, handbags heaps of licensees of many products, look at the guys who did the phone apps, ultrapin etc

Did you guys go to school or just plain can't understand english

If you have a problem with your ford, would you blame Nissan

PPS have nothing to do with this stuff, they didn't license farsight, the wms rights owners did

Because its not his fight and nothing to do with him, he wouldn't get anything done, if he had to read every post about fake news
Just blame trump

Quoted from Spies:

This is utterly rediculous, after all the effort they went to recreating these machines with the premise of being preserved forever in digital form.
Whats the real reason then if it's not PPS refusal to renew the license?

Because PPS don't own the rights
