Disclaimer - I have NO horse in this race. Never put a deposit on TBL, don't have any personal friends who were EAs, nor will I be buying one. The theme just never interested me.

Quoted from Dkjimbo:

Anyone heard Barry’s interview yet!? He’s personally building games and needs to sell 500 @ $12.5k before starting to make the EA’s whole!?
This lunacy just gets better all the time.

That's NOT what Barry said (and yes, I listened to the entire interview). He said that after building approximately 500 games, that's the point at which all EAs would have their games.

The intent is to sell some games, then deliver a smaller fraction of EA games. He needs to do this for cash flow purposes. This cycle will continue and as he gets further along, the number of games sold vs. games delivered to EAs will decrease.

So, along the way of building 500 games, ~315 or so will be sold and ~185 EA machines will be delivered. (numbers approximated)

Quoted from DCFAN:

It would be very hard to find 500 buyers at $12500

Quoted from dung:

Interesting news, but 500 machines at 12.5k?

Why do people keep saying they have to *sell* 500 machines? Barry mentioned 500 being the number where everyone (including EAs) would have their machine, so that's a little more than 300 games being *sold*.

At $12.5K each, that's still a LOT.
