Quoted from PanzerFreak:If the game doesn't allow coin-op it may sway her view as most of the games would be used in homes.
With no coin-op it is not for Stern. JJP can build it and it will be a true LE as they will price it so that they only 500 or 600 ever sell
Quoted from Jvspin:We get this argument over and over. "Fun" is subjective. You don't think JJP games are fun, someone else does, end of discussion, no right or wrong here.
From what I see, Stern is not usually bashed because their games aren't fun. They're bashed when their games fall well below expectations regarding theme implementation or build quality.
My god to even compare Stern and JJP is a joke 7 yr still trying to get out game 4 Stern punts out in a yr what JJP has put out in 7 yr
Quoted from Jvspin:You may be right, but I wouldn't say Stern is a joke compared to JJP because they put out games so quickly instead of taking the time to get it right.
Stern has managed to put out many fun games is spite of their short development cycles and cost cutting in some cases.
Short development cycles that's a joke it takes Stern two yr's to get a game out. as for cost cutting look at Woz vs TH vs DI there is cost cutting. I think POTC is Jacks try at building another WOZ but he is charging to much and if he does not lower prices he is done. With Stern CGC AP two games under $6000 game 3 by AP price unknown price by me but will be 3 grand cheaper than JJP lol
Quoted from PanzerFreak:Quality over quantity.
With there # it is a cute little hobby shop lol 
Quoted from PanzerFreak:Yeah, Ferrari and Lamborghini are little car hobby shops too because they don't make as many vehicles as Ford, lol ridiculous. Company A must be better then company B because they offer more products for sale! By that analogy Sears must be one of todays most successful retail stores!
There you go again calling JJP a Ferrari what a joke if anything a Tesla a high end car struggling to meet their numbers
Quoted from sulli10:There only two non brainer pins I would buy from whom ever upon announcement. Led Zeppelin and Harry Potter. I would expect this game would have to be a wide body and totally immersive to all the movies. Like both the Hobbit and Stern Star Wars in the immersive category. Both have deep rules and both have a significant amount of rules (which I love).
HP would require a significant amount of code to meet expectations. I would think similar to Hobbit /WOZ. I am not sure I would want a speed pin like SW for this title but more Hobbit/WOZ/LOTR. so if I had my pick I would go JJP based on code experience but that said ,holly S*&T what would it cost? It would most likely make JJP Pirates look cheap but if done right for me "where do I send my money".
If it is JJP it needs to be more DI than TH finishing a ball looking up and seeing that you finished modes that you did not know you even started sucks
Quoted from snakesnsparklers:Harry Potter is rumored to be a retheme of Nine Ball with additional zazzles
LOL JJP is on game 4 yet they are going back to WOZ and putting out a new edition they are grasping at straws they still don't get it the games have weak sales because of price not because people don't like the games
Quoted from Manny10:Anyone that thinks that the current Stern games can even come close to the quality and feel of the JJP machines is just being delusional. Try playing a JJP machine for about 10 minutes; just pick any game that they make, and then play a recent stern machine, and it feels like you are playing a toy rather than a $6000 pinball machine. At some point Stern needs to stop worrying about increasing profit margins and start focusing on making machines that feel like $6,000 - $10,000 machines. Its not even close.
LOL go to the JJP POTC club thread most of what they talk about is how to fix all the issues the game has
Quoted from PanzerFreak:Most early production games will have issues regardless of the manufacturer, the more mechs / parts in those games the more issues those early games may have. JJP has addressed the early Pirates QC issues, see Eric's post below from just over a week ago. Most of what the JJP POTC club discusses isn't QC issues. If you don't want any issues out of the box I would recommend waiting 6 months from when production begins before ordering a game from any company.

Early production my god man the unveiling was 14 months ago
Quoted from PanzerFreak:That's unveiling, not production...
I always hear how great it is that Jack has these looooong test periods so as to smooth things out Jack has had more than enough time
