Quoted from jfh:

Have retro fit kits for older games shipped yet?

I’m thinking about ordering these, but sadly they don’t work for Elvira for some reason.

Anyone know if Stern is ever going to do the pre LCD display games? Is it even possible for them to go back and have Star Trek (for example) on this system? That would be really awesome.

#1722 2 years ago
Quoted from TommyMc:

IC is only on Spike 2 machines. So only pins with LCD screens will get IC.

I understand that is how it is currently; however, is that how it will be forever or will Stern be able to find a way to retrofit the DMD games at some juncture in the future?

#1725 2 years ago
Quoted from Joe_Blasi:

does spike 1 even have the cpu power for it?
Also no E-net on board

Ah, and I guess there is zero chance SAM does.

Quoted from scootss:

The benefit of them doing 17 back catalog Spike 2 games is that it jumpstarts the number of IC games out there. 17 games is enough to do that. No need to go even further back and make it available for Spike 1 games.

Well, perhaps they could make more robust kits for the SAM games. The benefit would be them selling more kits. I think the $200 price tag is introductory and it’ll go up to $300. They could ask for $400 for old SAM games like Star Trek and Metallica…people would pay.

#1736 2 years ago
Quoted from Peanuts:

Insider Connected Games Codes are now available for the following games:
Elvira's House of Horrors

Are the kits to make EHOH ready for install available though? It seems it’s been excluded along with BM66 from the kits so far due to a configuration reason.

#1789 2 years ago

Any Black Friday sales in the kit? I’m sure not, but thought I’d check.

Any way to get this to work on an Elvira Premium? If so, which kit works? Thanks in advance!

#1842 2 years ago
Quoted from flynnibus:

If they do things like not make a game boot if the QR reader isn't present once the game is IC registered it would be an easy way to discourage this. I'm sure Stern is probably more worried about the support calls then they are on missing out on IC kit sales.

Just to piggy back on your very correct statement, I couldn’t imagine Stern’s legal counsel would sign off on Stern building in destructive code on products already put into commerce in some cases years prior (and on commercial products with coin doors to boot)…likely too much risk for their legal counsel to sign off on that.

Quoted from RC_like_the_cola:

EHOH supports insider now. And the premium kit fits the apron. My friend installed his on route just fine

I just ordered a premium kit for my EHOH…everyone says it works fine. I think its the LE that needs something special in the kit on EHOH.

I’m sure this has been asked before, but question:

My six year old wants a Stern insider connected account but he doesn’t have an email. Does Stern have an option to get someone who does not have an email address an account? Can I just load him up under my same email or do I need to create a throw away email account for him?

Thanks for the tip guys, I got the little guy a Stern insider account. He’s super stoked. We played one game on Venom and he wanted to immediately go look online to see what he got. Ha!

Quoted from EternitytoM83:

"12 character username limit, really Stern?" said the guy with the 13 character username.

My son has ten characters in his user name and oddly his user name won’t come up on the screen when he logs in…just his initials. Any idea why this might be? Are ten letters - though permissible for abuser name - too long to display on the machine screen itself?

#5487 4 months ago
Quoted from TrixTrix:

Full usernames are never publicly used/displayed for minor accounts as a privacy protection.

Got it. That makes sense. Thank you!

#5492 4 months ago
Quoted from 11strings:

It's definitely setting up as a minor that the name isn't displayed and only the initials. I set up my son and found out and there's no way to go back and change the birthdate so I had to create a second account in order to see his name on our home team.

I wonder if I contacted Stern directly if it would be possible for them to do some sort of override. It couldn’t possibly be that hard for them to do.
