    I was saddened to hear that Pinball Supernova not only will no longer be regularly producing new videos or website content, wiggy07 is also taking a break (at least) from the pinball hobby altogether.

    Details available on his latest blog at the Pinball Supernova website:

    I will really miss this quality pinball info resource. The in-depth product reviews and installation/demo videos were especially great!

    Thanks for all your time, effort, and contributions to the hobby Lee!

    Really sad to hear that news, he was my go to guy for installing mods. Great videos, very informative and you could tell his passion for pinball was real. I'll miss his videos and I wish him all the best for his future. You will be missed, thanks for everything you have done my friend!

    Sorry to hear this news. Well produced and useful YouTube content/ site. Sounds like a good interview opportunity to gain another perspective on the hobby today.

    I too am upset to see Lee taking a step back from producing great content for the hobby. His videos have been such a great resource when having to install or repair things on my games. He also did great product reviews for the mod community. I think his site was the best kept secret in the hobby. His content will be missed.

    Not only does he have great content on his site, but he is also a great friend. I hope that stepping away for a bit will allow him time to enjoy playing more pinball. I am sure we will still get together on Friday nights so he can put high scored on my machines!

    Wishing him all the best! And anyone that has not checked out his site, should go there and see the videos, especially the install videos for the inner art blades...makes it look so easy and installed them on most of my games!

    ...

    Yet another example of a truly deserving TWIPY candidate being left off the ballot too! Popularity contests can be so blatantly subjective and unfair.

    Agreed yet the quality and commitment of his content like many others didn't need a plastic trophy to be appreciated. Always loved his work and sad to see him move on. Does happen to many of us in Pinball like most hobbies just need to step away for awhile. Do hope he returns.

    I wonder how many people purchased their games after watching the unboxing videos.

    I was very sad to hear the news too. The negativity that is taking over this hobby is forcing the good guys out.

    Very sorry to see this. Pinball Supernova has been my go to site for finding out what's going on in the hobby. Lots of great insightful videos. Not sure how this site did not get a nomination for a TWIPY award.

    Your mistake here is thinking that the TWIPYs mean a damn thing.
