    So Joe Balcer has landed at Homepin.

    Plot twist.

    #55 2 years ago
    Quoted from pins4u:

    Yeah, but how about the upcoming machine they are working on, any clues?

    I didn't listen to the whole thing because there was a lot of rambling about Homepin minutae I didn't care about.

    1. The guilao zombie ghost pin they were making next is, ironically, dead. They made one unit and it's in their Taiwan showroom. But the excuse for why they're not selling it is it uses mainland simplified Chinese and that would be frowned upon in Taiwan. (I was like - so CHANGE it, you made ONE, it's not like you have a warehouse of cabinets and playfields).

    2. They made a few really basic pins with Porsche themes for Porsche trade shows on a contract basis.

    3. The new pin with Balcer on board is a licensed property, but he didn't really give anything up about it. Joe has a few good pins, but a lot of duds, so it's anyone's guess if he's straightened out enough to deliver a good pin design once more. Allegedly.

    Balcer landing at Homepin is really the most surprising takeaway, IMO.
