Quoted from arcademojo:I'm pretty sure it will be sold out by the time I get home from work. Wish they would scrap the XXX number and make a time window to order instead.
Can you explain the XXX number system they're using? Does it mean if you add a game to your cart you're guaranteed a game regardless of time to checkout?
Quoted from wackenhut:How do you know this?
Watch the video he posted, they talk about it at one point.
Quoted from stf_dnx:Remember that CE were not available at first on spooky website. I went through pinball star because i wanted a ce. I guess I'm not the only one. Just my 2 cents to say that Joe's stats are not representative of spooky sales imo.
The same situation happened to me. CE's didn't show up right when Spooky's store opened so I jumped on the blast email from pinballstar. Didn't realize there was a $60 paypal fee but oh well, felt sorry for the people stressing out over the webstore issues and felt like I dodged a bullet afterwards.
Quoted from Frax:Really wondering if they're holding hard to that "all CE before BSE" thing, or if Ultraman BSE will get built immediately following the end of the CE's. That could be a *really* substantial difference in wait time.
It's what they said would happen and is part of the reason many paid the extra 1k for a CE, doubt they are arbitrarily going to start making BSE's before the CE's are done.
Quoted from FlippyD:I remember reading in one of these threads that Spooky makes 50 games for their own customers, then 50 for their distributors.
If that is actually the case then wouldn't Pinballstar's first numbers be getting the games soon even though the game #s start around 250?
I'm not expecting anybody to have an accurate answer right now on how exactly it will all shake out though.
Interesting and wasn't thinking of it that way. Maybe I won't be waiting until April of next year for #305 and it will be sooner than that.
Quoted from DakotaMike:CE #350 from PinballStar. My order went through at about 9:40am, for context. A pretty satisfying round number so-to-speak, and about perfect position for me. I'm guesstimating at least 6 or 7 months before delivery for numbers in that range.
I'm in the 80's for a Fathom ME, and I'm hoping to space out the final bills on them.
Can you share how you came up with that timeframe guess?
Quoted from RobT:I won't watch the video (don't care for them) so can you give us a summary?
Calling what Spooky is doing amateur hour just because they had a ball fall through the apron into the cabinet when streaming R&M. Reminds me of that douche that wanted to return his ACNC because the coin door lock arm fell off or wasn't installed at the factory.
Quoted from RikeIsland:When is this thread going to blow up with photos and videos of the new Ultraman?
Is the Spooky road crew even there yet?
Quoted from desertT1:Key point is “before”. None of us knows anything really about the rules of the game of how to accomplish any objectives. It would have been nice to see a video, even a shallow one showing how to start a mode, how to light locks and then start a multiball, and a few video clips and light animations. Just a taste, no need to put out a video of Bowen beating the game.
Well we were promised a video from Spooky Luke and it never happened for whatever reason. Now it will be shaky phone footage this weekend and then probably the Deadflip stream on their way back to Benton next week.
Quoted from dri:All Spooky games to date require fans if you want to play the game for longer than 15 minutes.
nope
Quoted from Txcoastal1:From what I saw of HWN, I don't think the sound/animation/and code have been completed and tied together and completed
This maybe be what we are waiting on to see Jack Danger stream
Nobody has video of anyone getting past the first mode of the game so that's a reach to say the code is incomplete. People freaking out over a few five minute amateur videos is laughable but doesn't surprise me in the least.
Quoted from Txcoastal1:Quoted from NightMutilator:
Halloween is by far one of the most influential films of my life and all I can say is I am doing every possible thing I can do to live up to the high bar John Carpenter set. I literally have been working day/night to make this shine. Moreover, I know the very high standards pinball enthusiasts have and want to make each and every owner proud to show this amazing machine off to everyone they know.
All I'm saying is I don't think it's all complete and tied together yet.
When you listen to the latest podcasts Spooky has done they state the game is complete up to the wizard mode but the wizard mode still needs work. NightMutilator is talking about shine which means polishing the code that is mostly completed. These videos are people dinking around in the first mode of the game.
Quoted from TigerLaw:Wow! I hadn’t heard this, that is huge news. The game is going to shoo with mostly completed code? Almost under head of in modern pinball. Another feather is Spooky’s cap for sure.
Pretty sure it was the Chris Franchi one where they talked about it.
Quoted from TigerLaw:Wow! I hadn’t heard this, that is huge news. The game is going to shoo with mostly completed code? Almost under head of in modern pinball. Another feather is Spooky’s cap for sure.
Start listening at 1:32:18 mark of Ep. 27 for code talk.
Quoted from frankmac:Ultraman looked fantastic.
Yes, so glad I chose UM because it was down to a coin flip for me on the day they went up for sale.
Quoted from RobT:Are you trolling us?!
WRONG THREAD!
There are Ultraman's at the end of the line up.
Quoted from Mrg50:I’ve got an Ultraman on order and am looking forward to getting it sometime next year. My one concern is the sound every time the ball hits the slings at the bottom of the playfield. Is there a way to reduce the frequency of how often that sound is produced. The sound fits in well with the theme but may be too much of a good thing. What do owners think? Does the sound get irritating?
Your mind will just block it out after awhile. I thought my Houdini would be irritating with women giggling every time the slings went off and I didn't even notice it eventually.
Quoted from mpdpvdpin:After Charlie and Bug specifically said that he WAS consulting on rules, pretty irritating. Hoping they chime in with some kind of explanation. Lot of spots being listed for sale with this news.
Many justified 2k non refundable deposits partly on the basis of Bowen being involved so I think Spooky may need to revisit the idea of bringing Bowen back even if it's in a limited role.
