Even in the American Pinball forum everyone is talking about Godzilla. Well done Keith!

Quoted from PinballManiac40:So you are saying all the buildings and bridges on fire or blown up have no people dying in them? Got it. Just because you don't see the carnage, doesn't mean people didn't die. Kids can still can connect the dots.
What are you talking about? It's just a pinball machine, it's not real. I think all machines should have an adult mode. I want the machine to cuss at me a little bit.
Quoted from PinStalker:So you're saying JJP, CGC, Multi-M and AP gone?
Yeah, very well could be.
IMO too early for BOF though. They may get thru this pin and decide that the other things they want to do are easier and have better margins.
One strike and they're probably out (IMO).
I have a theory about JJP though..... I think Jack is trying to sink it on purpose so he can buy the company back. Just a spit-ball.
Age is a factor unconsidered too...... Spooky's strength is they're family, but people get older and then they don't want to do the same thing anymore. Their strength is also the largest potential weakness. Same with Dutch: TLB took several years, BTTF will take several more. How often does someone wake up after 20 years of doing something and then doesn't want to do it anymore? Happens all the time. When the vision and drive quits, the company goes with it.
I don't even know it Stern survives.... their overhead has jumped so much, and we don't know how much money Gary and Money-Bags are giving to themselves (or how much Disney-Boy will award to himself if they croak off). It could be a surprisingly hollowed out shell in a few years as the owners cash out.
Surprised if Stern survives? They obviously have you all by the balls. They own 90% of the market. At these prices do you know how much they must be making. Wow Stern really does have you all tricked.
I heard the American Pinball owners have so much money that it doesn't even matter if GTF sells or not. They are going to keep on keeping on, no matter.
Quoted from Roostking:What is not working, is the GTF at Electric bat. This is a replacement pin and down again. Didnt even bother taking a pic this time... Its too bad. AP had a bright future.
I played GTF yesterday on location. It was really a good game. Everyone liked it, but it did freeze up for me and another person I was with. But it just seemed like a code issue. I hope they get everything worked out.
Quoted from Dr-pin:Ap is looking more and more like the cat with nine lives, but surely cuphead must be the final nail?
This just cant be true?
Why not minesweeper or tic, tac, toe?
How many people on earth has any association/relation to cuphead?
0.5% ?
So you´re actually building a game where you exclude 99.5% of potential customers in a niche hobby?
nobody can be that stupid.....
I have been trying to understand pinball themes for years. Most themes are family or like I call them kids themes, because pinball companies learned they need to sell to the wives and kids, because that's who decides if the man is allowed to purchase the machine. Then we have these unlicensed themes because it saves the company money. I'm not a fan of either. We need more adult themes like the big lebowski and Texas chainsaw massacre.
