Quoted from sillyoldelf:Code updates may win sales in Huo owners but not in the market they are targeting. Gary made it clear there main market is location and how many operators are going to bother with code updates?
All the ops that I know, including myself, do very timely code updates. Sometimes same or next day code comes out, always within a week of the code release.
Quoted from marcos:Us "hobby ops" are a rare breed, though,
And maybe Portland, Seattle, and the Bay Area.
The big boys in my region, if they even have pinball at all anymore, don't care about updates. They don't even keep their games clean, for the most part.
500,000 Mystery on a BDK with filthy playfield rules the routes.

Agreed about the "hobby ops", though I was talking about a shift in traditional ops here in parts of St Louis. Just last week, I heard that Star Trek was selling well to ops that haven't bought pins in quite some time. I think it really helps that our local brick and mortar distributor, Shaffer's, is bullish on pins again, and helping ops understand the best way to be successful with them. Big thanks to Rich Grant for that.
