Quoted from BigBalls:

Halloween is shipping is Ultraman ?

I believe so..

#1902 2 years ago
Quoted from Aeolus7:

And it has some odd & quirky stuff mixed in between the main story line, like this mini "Kaiju Steps" page. Weird!
[quoted image]

You just totally made me think of an idea. Quirkiness and short is in. One page is all I need to draw. I’m off…

#1903 2 years ago

Can’t wait to compare Matt Frank’s and Zombie Yeti’s Kaiju art. I will hopefully have them next to one another some day.

Should be interesting .. I am excited !

#1905 2 years ago

I think it’s gonna be a no contest home run from ZY. I originally wanted UM but Frank’s playfield artwork didn’t do it for me. I DID get a Halloween though. Hope Edminston takes more pinball work in the future. Guy is phenomenal.

Picked a couple more issues of Trials. I’ll probably just keep buying them. Great art!

I love Zombie Yeti’s art on my TMNT and IMDN but I thought Matt Frank did an excellent job on Ultraman. Art is most definitely subjective.

#1908 2 years ago

The cabinet and backglass are both awesome on UM. Mainly the playfield was lacking for me…and the logo / typography is kinda rough too. But I’m a stickler for that stuff.

Ah, that sucks bro. Sorry to hear about that. I'm currently trying to figure out how to replace my HVAC without doing this....I have Iron Man and Demolition Man to sell, but that money was going to go towards Ultraman and other things....now it won't be, so I guess it's back to praying for a shitton of overtime for me.

#1913 2 years ago

With HWN going out I am hoping someone soon will have UM pics and videos to share. So excited!

I'm dying. I feel like some kid staring through the candy store window in the HWN thread.

Anyone receive their ultraman?

I've seen enough, happy to keep the mystery until mine arrives

#1918 2 years ago

Been watching more gameplay of Halloween as they begin to roll out. NGL, Ultraman seems way better as a theme.

i can imagine many being traded for one another in the future

#1920 2 years ago

Says the guy in the Ultraman thread with an Ultraman avatar and Ultraman bedsheets. Of course you prefer it, wanna know how I already knew that?

Ultraman avatar

I'd rather be Ultraman than the fist.

#1922 2 years ago

My sons have gotten into the new animation series and comic book I thought I hid has been read several times.
Lot of excitement going around here... Will look amazing next to next new Elwin game to. but soon to be
tapped out on the Pinball budget.

Haha you want me to say that in the Halloween thread? People would go ballistic. Honestly if I had a Halloween on preorder, I would have backed out based on how the music, assets, etc. look so far.

#1924 2 years ago

It seems that both groups are happy with their games, which is great. It was damn near a tossup for me. I went with Ultraman, but I'm excited to see if I can switch my game over with an SD card swap. It would be really cool to be able to play both games.

#1925 2 years ago

People bought the game they wanted man. I’m more of a horror buff so I went HWN you’re into Kaiju so you bought UM. I don’t really understand the need to shit on one game or the other. You may not be into HWN but how do you account for the fact that the spots for HWN are selling for more than UM on the secondary market?

Hey guys just wanted to jump in and say we cleared 30 games to go out the door this week. Many of them already boxed. On a daily production schedual now so you will see games going out every week from here on out! Appreciate all the kind words and feedback. This has truly been a dream come true for all of us.

So are you building all the Halloween CEs before you start on the Ultraman BSEs?

I keep refreshing my email and waiting for permission to come pick mine up. Hope to hear from team Spooky next week (#16)!!

I don't really care what spots are selling for to be honest. I did notice a lot of Halloween spots up for sale after the initial stream.

Not sure how I am "shitting" on a game. Me not liking it should not have any affect on whether you enjoy it or it's perceived value.

Quoted from RikeIsland:

I'm pretty sure that's the way it works, all CEs before any BSEs.

#1933 2 years ago

Well with the first 30 heading out the door. Guess it is getting closer and closer to decision time for some of us butter / no butter.

HWN does have the best topper in pinball...ever.

There's a choice? No. It's just butter!

I'm afraid that we have recently implemented measures to prevent switching the software between games. Sorry about that :/
The decision was ultimately made for licensing reasons.

This is a good move

Makes perfect sense, although it would've been funny to have a karate-chopping Michael Myers.

Bummer I was hoping for UltraMichael.

#1941 2 years ago

General question here. Do we know what kind of hardware is in this pin as far as boards? Does it have a PC like JJP uses? I really like the CGCs because the stick with the soild state stuff.

Quoted from happyclan:

It’s a new controller designed by Ben Heck named “Pinotaur”.

Before that they were using PROC on ACNC and TNA. AMH and RZ were PinHeck boards.

Spooky has never used a PC for their production games.

Not happy about this. It's really cool to put Shrek code on Family Guy and vice versa. It doesn't hurt anyone.

But it throws off the amount of people that spooky says will purchase the machine, so it would be more expensive for them to allow it, I would assume, since that number would go up.

And? They still sell 1750 machines. Why care what code "scurrilous owners" installs at that point on either machine. Given the HWN vids shown, I'm starting to worry about what actual Halloween assets are available. Ive read 19. Not sure I've seen one yet? Is the Halloween IP owner being problematic?

#1947 2 years ago

No, the full clips are rewards for completing modes. No one has completed a mode on video with the updated code yet.

Maybe Spooky's statement on here was to reaffirm to licensers that they're sitting within the contract. Ie maybe it IS swappable, but they can't say that anywhere publicly? I think you should try it

#1949 2 years ago

Still can’t imagine why anyone would actually want to hear Halloween on a Ultraman themed game. Novelty would wear off in about 16 seconds.

P3Roc found in TNA/Rick & Morty do need host computers of some sort.... Its some model of UpBoard in TNA as I recall... I think the same thing in is R&M... Pinotaur will also require a host computer based on what I've seen. I don't have ACNC and haven't looked inside one of those... but if its P3Roc its got some kind of host computer in there as well.
