Quoted from Russell:

I get your point, but Beatles remake is actually a great game.

Yep, it is brilliant

Quoted from RA77:

My comment from the angle of someone who reveled in the 80's but could not get into the Netflix st series.
The stream was well presented and the game looks fine ! Thanks Jack Danger for another great stream ( Took you a little while to get warmed up ; ) )
Super impressed with a Very solid effort for a Stern Pro , IMHO the best Stern Pro to date.
I think when Prem/LE is revealed and code is advanced many pinheads will be blown away !
My most positive comment would be that the designer and team has created Atmosphere/Ambience achieved through Art, Audio and Video, this is a huge step forward and something that makes a pinball machine special.
Bottom line
Too early to judge the package, code is a work in progress.
Congrats Team Stern, Awesome effort !

I think your right, how many great sterns started off with these same mixed reviews. DP and TWD did and both are great.

Quoted from CrazyLevi:

Yeah just like a rick and morty cultist to bring up the projector. Again. For the 500th time.
The projector will be fine goddammit! It’s not rocket science! It’s gonna be super fucking cool and everybody knows it.
If spooky did the projector it would have brilliant innovation. Kind of like how their space ship on a spring is perfectly cool and when stern does it on a game that costs $2,000 less it’s a war crime!

Quoted from palmab03:

played this yesterday, and let's all be honest. This game is terrible. The version I played I took 15 shots at the main target in the middle and none of them registered. Other than that's, it was literally the most boring layout one could imagine. There are two ramps and two outlanes. They somehow made a game more boring and more uninteristing than Munsters. Anyone who bought this sight unseen is going to lose thousands of dollars just like anyone who bought munsters and bk3000. There will be no secondary market for this game. It undoubtably sucks. And I'm a big fan of the TV show.
Stern produces many great games, this isn't one of them. Let's just all agree and hopefully save some poor saps their money if they were on the fence and also work towards roundly rejecting just crap games like this so they can focus on producing games like JP2.

Bk3000 is a fun. Is stranger things that bad?

Quoted from beergut666:

As it sits right now it is fun enough to keep me pumping coins into it. By the time it's finished it it will probably make it on my wish-list for purchase. Really looking forward to the full permium/LE reveal.

I am currently waiting in limbo. It will be JP2 Premium or stranger premium.

Quoted from Trindawg:

So upset that my machine isn’t working out of the box! My firts (and possibly last) NIB purchase. 6k and this thing on it 2nd day in my basement, takes a crap on me. The center ramp won’t come down. So stern sent me a replacement board. Swapped it out. Then 2 hours later, it fails again!! Seriously ??? WTF is going on here stern?? This is ridiculous. I’ve never made such a big purchase on a “toy” and for it to not work out of the box! Really??? Frustrated here.

Stern will take care of you! I have a friend who's NIB's always show up DOA. It is hilarious! They always get fixed. He opened his JP premium last week set it up and powered it on and on the first game smoke started coming out of the playfield (bad nod board and locked on a coil). All his JJP game showed up not working. It is part of the hobby.

Quoted from kpg:

My JP LE I just unboxed has barely any dimpling issues, very very tiny.
It was also built on Sept 23rd and not unboxed until a couple days ago. I think that these things need time to cure their clearcoat possibly.. people are getting these straight off the line, unboxing, and playing them. I am willing to bet the people who get their games that have been in the box longer have less dimpling problems.

my premium is the same way.
