    You know, every so often I stumble on a post from Kaneda and it incites strong opinions that typically question everything from the OPs pinball acumen to intelligence. And after reading Kaneda’s initial post, everything now makes perfect sense. I mean, KISS looks good and as a pinball enthusiast, I admire what all manufacturers do for this hobby – boutique and otherwise. But to make a generalized statement and rip Spooky, JPOP, JJP, etc. Why? Plato was right - “An empty vessel makes the loudest sound, so they that have the least wit are the greatest babblers.” So babble on, Kaneda! We’ll all share a laugh at your expense.

    Quoted from kaneda:

    Are you reading what I wrote or what you want to see? How did I Rip anyone? Please quote me and show me where I did that in this post or where i was wrong. The only empty vessels are those who pre order games and watch their money frozen for years

    Just look at your initial post - thumbs down abound. I'm a man of the people, and the people have spoken. And the overwhelming opinion is that you are, hmmm....how might I say this without a tread eject? Misguided. And I'm being tactful. Why? While it's perfectly acceptable to extol the virtues of a pin - aesthetic, gameplay and otherwise - there is little need to spotlight the shortcomings of other manufacturers working ardently to improve the hobby with new technology and game design. To me, KISS looks inferior to ST, MET and ACDC on theme alone. Apparently, you're really into dudes in drag - but hey, it's 2015. All good, chief.
