Someone, please tell me this isn't it? This is just some random homebrew or something right?

Yeah but I've seen those, and that looks like a real playfield. I'm just hoping someone can be like oh don't worry that is my buddy Pete's homebrew game.

I knew I could count on someone.

Christmas special, kids are playing the machine in the basement...the machine is quicksilver/stranger things retheme....nah can't happen

Someone tweeted it out a few hours ago and it was sent to me on Facebook by a friend who saw it. The tweet essentially said the same thing that this can't really be it can it?

Thank you!

So now I've heard reports of games sitting at locations waiting to be unveiled from 3 different cities across the US... maybe there is something to these rumors, regardless, we know it is coming Stern, just show us what you have!

You, sir, are setting your hopes too high.

Set bar very low, so anything extra is exciting.

The generic setting of Stranger Things...little to 0 characters from the show, if there are characters focus will be on season 1 which takes place around Christmas (hence the release date).

Pro will have a magnet, Prem/LE will have multiple magnets.

Probably the show soundtrack, but not the licensed music from the show.

Art, clipart from maybe a Netflix person, similar to a Disney person on Star Wars, in two years or so maybe we get the art we actually should have had to start with.

The game focused on the other kids with powers like 11, but no mention of anyone by name, just their generic numbers so callouts can be anything as can animations.

I'm focused on worst-case scenarios. This way anything above that I find joy haha. I do hope it is a huge success and an awesome game, I've been excited to see what Eddy has been working on since he was announced as being back almost 2 years ago.

One step ahead of you

How angry will you be if there is no steve's Farrah Fawcett Hairspray bonus included in the scoring?

Alexi Cherry Slurpee bonus?

Never Ending story playing as your game ends and the scores/credits roll

Murray...I'm personally pulling for Mrs. Wheeler.

Also please don't fuck up the art!

Anyone else refreshing IGN constantly?

a reposting of everything that was already in this thread, with a bit more detail on the projection aspect, and colorful artwork

Billy

and the disappointment starts.... (just to be clear, not with you, just the cost-cutting to the pro)

Just make the differences cosmetic between the variable models. I know this isn't stern's routine, I get that, it just gets frustrating sometimes, especially on a theme I care about. JP missing the t-rex okay, same shot still does the same thing on the pro, I get it. But if you are saying the game is going to look and act differently on the premium/le models it is more frustrating.

I'm sure it is still going to be a ton of fun, and stern makes great stuff, just disappointing.

Hasn't he already had multiple wrong predictions this week?

If there isn’t a mode where you search for Barb is it even Stranger Things?

Got my pro for location tonight. One way gate under demogorgon broke on 3rd game. Ball sticks in the pop area. Demogorgon shot nearly impossible to hit. Still pretty fun though. Added ball save time. Set drops to easy for demogorgon modes and turned off the up post so it has virtual locks and I don’t break the post. Anyway, see where this game ends up in a few months.

Had this happen twice yesterday. Get to second Demogorgon battle which is 2 ball multiball, the second ball kicks out of shooter lane autoplunge as the ramp is lowering and it gets stuck right behind it not allowing the ramp to lower, no ball search to figure out why, and the front edge of that ramp is now subject to a beating from the ball that is still in play. Anyone else seeing this happening?

Seems like easy fix in code if you just don't eject the 2nd ball until that ramp down switch has registered, but was curious if this is common or not.

A customer at my location yesterday told me my game wasn't on the latest code because on the latest code the left sling is disabled momentarily on a shot that doesn't make it around the left orbit and comes back down that side so the sling doesn't send it out of control. my game was built on the 18th of January. I assumed it would ship with latest code which released I think on January 8th or so. Does anyone know if this left sling code thing is real or a setting perhaps?
Just curious.

Anyone have a Beatles Gold they want to trade for a Stranger Things Pro? Has 153 plays on it.
