I'm different than most here. I wasn't interested when it was first revealed via trailer/pictures. Looked kinda boring, few toys or innovations. I changed my mind after the Jack Danger stream because of the lights, colors, sound effects and smoothness of many of the shots (and I don't have a "fan layout" pin in my collection). It was also non-stop play, it seems. Very few stoppages like JP2, sheesh. What I don't get is why anyone is extra excited over the premium or LE? Seems to me like the main difference is the projector and a magnet ball holder in the back. You can't really see the magnet holder in the back, so who cares about that and the projector would project...what? The same stuff as on the screen (that I rarely ever look at). I'm not sure I get the hype over a projector. So it's gonna show me stuff on a small screen during my gameplay?! Who cares. I really don't see the excitement over the additions, especially at the higher price tag. That said, I still wanna play it before I decide on the Pro or not.

Honestly, I watched Deadflip's stream a couple of times and nobody has ANY ISSUES putting it into his mouth. They would miss once in a while but overall it was pretty easy, I thought. In fact, I thought they might have made it too easy from what they were doing. Maybe it's a matter of dialing in your machine.

I actually have a JP Pro and I like it, but it's hard to play and nobody who comes to my mancave plays it much because they find it "too hard". I prefer games that I can enjoy playing, I get too frustrated with JP, it seems. Am considering selling JP pro to get Stranger Thing Premium, but first I wanna see how that whole projector thing works out...

You can kind of feel like they're all nervous, like they've been working on this for quite some time and it's STILL kinda "meh" on video. I think the best way to really experience the PREMIUM would be "in person" which is gonna be pretty hard for most. Not sure video really shows the full coolness of the projector -- if in fact, it's cool.
