So funny reading all the complaints. NO MATTER WHAT ZY did with the artwork, NO MATTER WHAT KE did with the layout, there will be bitching and complaining about the smallest things.

"This is bullshit, Godzilla NEVER looks left when shooting fire out of his mouth",
"His color is not the exact shade of green during a lunar eclipse on Tuesdays and I can prove it with a comic I have from Oct of 1968 on page 3 frame 5",
"Why does Mechagodzilla look like a different shade of silver than the ball?",
"why are there wire forms, I prefer plastic ramps",
"The building raises up too fast",
"Why won't Stern just make the games I like?",
"I don't want to complain but I hate everything about it",
"Why did they raise their prices, now I have to sell one of my 49 games to get it",
"why didnt JJP do this game instead?"
"It would have been better if Steve Ritchie designed it back in 1995",
"the artwork isn't to scale, Godzilla is 4 inches smaller in real life, if he actually existed",
"why won't Keith shave",
"Stern releases too many games",
"Why are there so many multi balls, I hate multi balls",
"I wanted internet connectivity but now that I've seen it, I hate internet connectivity",
"Back To The Future should have been released first",
"Why didnt they make a Gamera game instead because he is the monster I like better",
"Why didnt Lyman Sheats do the code?"
"I hate games released on Tuesdays"
"why is there points in this game, I hate points"
"why do they have to put wizard modes in this game, I only play for points"
"I won't buy this game because there isn't 7 flippers and everyone knows I only buy games with 7 flippers"
"why doesn't the Pro have everything the Premium/LE has?"
"this game looks exactly the same as Iron Maiden",
"why isn't Godzilla actually breathing fire?"
"how dare Stern raise their prices, now I won't make as much when I flip my LE"
"where the heck is the horseshoe turnaround shot I love in all my games"?
"I can only buy one game every 10 years and sure the heck aint gunna be this one"
"why didn't they just make High Speed 3 instead?"
"Bally/Williams games were better"
"this game looks challenging and I only play easy games where I hit every shot, every time"
"Stern screwed up letting Steve Ritchie go because now all we are going to get are these great games and I only live in the past"
"every great game has more than 15 magnets and this one doesn't, so I hope Stern goes out of business"
"pinball is not about the screen/display, however the animation sucks on this game and they should have done a better job with it to the make the playing experience better"
"what? No crane mech?"
“I’m a tournament player and this looks too slow and too fast at the same time”
etc....

I'm sure I missed a few, please add them

After the stream the whining will reach its peak and once games arrive in homes, arcades or wherever, it will be a flood of how awesome it is and how these guys and Stern knocked it out of the park. SMH

Awesome, me too, just got my invoice and couldn’t be any more excited about this game

LOL, the cactus/watermelon comment! Glad I'm not the only one and you are totally right, those of us who can will be getting one and it definitely looks cool AF

Hahahaha, awesome

Yeah I totally agree, he can be all over the place and flip flop his opinions but most other guys do the same. Podcasts like his are the best if you just want fast, direct pinball talk coming at you at a 100mph without 75% of the show being about covid, what the wife did, who was ranked 875 back in 93 etc. If you take what he says with a grain of salt and cross reference his info, there is nothing to be bitter at, its just entertainment and sometimes informative. Try listening to the triple drain podcast, the "Tom talks" segment is so painful I won't even bother with that one anymore. The guy sounds like he just dropped 10 kush hits and a 5th of booze. They think its hilarious but its literally the worst segment in pinball podcasting. Joel and Travis aren't too bad but Tom isn't interesting at all and it takes a minute for him to mumble anything out. Slam tilt is good, Loserkid is good, Final Round isn't bad and has some funny segments, Zachs pinball show is slow paced but pretty good and always informative. ALL of these podcasts give their opinions and predictions, some are accurate and some are not, so why not listen to the one that burns rubber and gets to all the topics fast and direct instead of an hour of slow paced garbage and then 30 min of weak pin talk. To each his own and everyone has their fav show but for me personally I dig the ones that are on topic as much as possible through out the show and Kaneda is definitely that. I want to hear about machines, good, bad, who cares, talk about the games, that's what I'm there for. People act like they buy a $10k game based on what a podcaster says about it, its just their opinion, take it for what its worth, an opinion

SPOT ON!!!!

LOL!!! Love it!!!

I missed what happened between you and Joel but I don’t have a problem with Tom as a person, it’s the one word a minute part I can’t stand. He is a nice guy, he plays well, he is nice looking, all things that don’t matter to me in a Pinball podcast. However Silverball Chronicles is one of my favorite podcasts so keep up the great work, definitely a fan of the show as well as you and Ron on other shows

Hahaha, ok, well if that's the case you guys have done a very convincing job!

OUCH!!!
