Quoted from aingide:

Details!  
GENERAL
* Layout by Bryan Eddy
* Code by Lonnie and Mike
* Artwork based on Netflix illustration style
* Fan layout
* Flow, progression and shot balance is designed to feel like MM or AFM
TOYS
* Demogorgan head bash toy up the center with drop targets in front.  Supposed to be Hawkings lab with the portal to the upside down
* Projector under the apron that "transforms" playfield objects!  So ramps, standups, drops and other elements on the playfield change based on the location in the mode you're playing (Upside Down, Will's house, wherever).  There are even scoring elements projected onto things (like numbers on drop targets).
* Upside Down is random hurry-up mode.  One of the kids flips into the upside down and you need to hit shot(s) to bring them back.
GAMEPLPAY
* Half a dozen multiball modes
* 3 staging areas to hold the ball
* 40+ modes, designed for longevity in the home
PREMIUM/LE
* "Telekinesis" ball lock up left ramp (multiple balls can "stick" to the backboard via magnet, like 11 pinning the demogorgan to the wall)
* Demogorgan toy moves

I hope this is true

Quoted from drfrightner:

I don't watch the show. I watched the first season and said wow the special fx are so bad, the plot makes no sense, but I gave it one more season. Season 2 was the worst it was impossible to even follow it. Someone said watch season 3 its the best, but I couldn't even watch season 2.

WoW

I like show and love the music because the band Survive is awesome. Plus i grew up in 80s so i love all that stuff in the show. 1st and 3rd seasons are best so far. But yeah some like some don't

#675 4 years ago
Quoted from Rascal_H:

1) Back to the Future
2) Stranger Things
3) The Fifth Element
4) Lost Boys
5) Beetlejuice

WoW i agree with all you listed would be awesome

Quoted from bigd1979:

Only thing is the lighting... sure is gonna have to be fairly dark for the premium/le for the projection to work and cld b difficult to see to play? I love the effect and will just have to see but at least there will be a pro without that. However that's a huge feature missing so who knows lol. Hopefully the pro has the magnetic ball lock but its probably missing also ? . Lots of questions still to be awesome but looks super cool and off to a good start . Imo.

Yeah we need to see how the pro works and yeah I worry how it would look in lit game room. If has to be dark it hurt the game in my opinion. But it does look cool.

#1041 4 years ago

It def be buy for me just decide if worth extra for the premium. I mean the screen and ball lock are awesome. But worried how it could be washed out in certain game rooms. I guess we have wait and see

#1085 4 years ago
Quoted from cooked71:

Hope you like playing in the dark. Can’t see it working otherwise.
But playing in pitch black looks like it could be cool.

yeah that only problem i see with that is having to be dark. Which would lend to the feeling of the theme but dark is not all ways doable for everyone. But will see still going to be awesome.

#1399 4 years ago

I can't wait to see what pro has so i can compare. This might be my 1st Stern Premium NIB i normally just go pro.

#1535 4 years ago

I think we all just need to wait until we see the game....

I'm Def in on a ST Pinball just got to decide on pro or prem. From the stream it looks fun but i'm wait a few months see which one is for me. That gives me time to save and play the game.

My Worries are for prem
projector life span
the white areas on ramps will they hold up with having to clean over time.

My other thoughts
I don't think the light in room will really matter as the projector is real close to were it had to project on. I'm sure its led so no worry about bulb.
Still very early code so lots more to add

Quoted from PinMonk:

CES is well-lit, but that cheap projector (or projectors) they're using is just failing hard in that lighting.[quoted image]

Yeah that game needs dark room to shine and that's what we all figured. They could of put it under a tent for better showing.

#3898 4 years ago
Quoted from TheGunnett:

I think everyone needs to appreciate that this lighting is the worst possible scenario and if it’s visible and works in that case, then it should look great in a dim bar or home basement.

Yeah but they could did stuff to help at the show like a tent but yeah it be game that must be in dim/dark room for best results

#3903 4 years ago
Quoted from PinMonk:

Is SOMETHING there? Yeah. Is it what most would call visible and working? No. Especially on the ramps, ramp standup and drop targets.
I'm very surprised Stern didn't put a tent over this. Very.

I said the same thing they need tent to block some light and might hurt sales to show it like that in too bright room.

Looks pretty good to me Should be fine in most game rooms and lets hope the projector is one that will last.
