Not keen on the brand, but honestly, Spiderman Home has always looked like a fun, well tuned, well coded game ... it's just far too close to a Stern Pro in price in the US.

I suspect they won't limit the number of these, so much as the time they're available for. It's a halo product and they'll want to get as many out there as possible to break into new markets with their CostCo quality at 10x the price products.

I suspect this will be better value, and a lot more fun than WN and PBR.

Supreme are absolutely hated by most of the skate community, and certainly virtually anyone involved in the art / design scene associated with skate culture.

They appeal to the absolute lowest common denominator, across their entire product range. This is particularly true of anything that relates to skate stuff still - namely decks with some pretty hideous 'art', which rather than being screen printed is low quality inkjet print on generally lousy quality decks ... for a premium price.

There are some fantastic illustrators, artists and graphic designers associated with skateboarding, and companies and consumers who support them. Supreme are resolutely not among these.

This, much like the story about their ethics should speak to why people don't like them in general, and aren't necessarily very happy to see them in pinball.

Also, you're dreaming if you think most of their brand disciples will suddenly lust after pinball machines. It's cool to them because it has their logo on it. That's it.
