Well, if hes at American already it probably means he left JJP and wasn't fired, i hav no faith in JJP and will never buy one of their products after the way is was treated by the company and their management. I love what American pinball is doing. It probably wasnt Barry Englers fault about the shitty treatment I received by JJP, hope he has better support at American.congratulations to both barrys.

Is it Barrys fault? jjp sucks, he probably left because he was treated poorly as an employee, thats why i changed my original statement, Barry is an employee, not his fault JJP instructed him to screw us customers. Upper management are to blame, i know at least 6 collectors locally including my self that will never buy a JJP ANYTHING, myself and another sold our GNRLEs,And then a third sold his DILE. GNR is a grail theme for me so it wont matter what they make they can pound sand.

Yep, i think he deserves the benefit of our support, i know he reads this stuff, good luck Barry E on your new endeavor.

Wishing you the best. I 100% know it wasnt you making those decisions. Congratulations on your fresh start, ive been there myself, its a great feeling when all that weight is lifted off your shoulders. Look forward to now dealing with you in a positive environment, hopefully youll be at TPF with American.

You will be attacked by the JJP fanboys, basically since they didnt get screwed by JJP the rest of us are just complaining negative assholes that have nothing better to do. Meanwhile collectors like you and me have been collecting 20 years and have huge collections I dont know how we did that since we’re so sensitive

It will never happen and I know it would be career suicide, but it would be great if we got the truth from barry. Man, the stories he could probably tell would light pinside on fire.

Sure, he announces on Tuesday hes leaving, TWIP runs a story on sunday hes back at American, im sure there’s nothing to it.

All American games just plummeted

You think? Williams closed shop and everything worked out fine. But in the short term their games also plummeted back then. Its already hard to sell a game, i have a feeling it will be very hard to sell an American game.

When does API show up to say this is rumor and not true? I guess it must be true!

They have them laying around, there was probably a minimum order to get them produced. Also gives us the reason they had houdini on the line, must have leftover inventory

What happens if the actually bring a game to tpf thats a hit. Interesting story line thats for sure. Pinball never seems to be boring.

I have a local friend that has all the AP games other than GTF, all their games are very good, and the build quality is also very good. They are so close to making a hit game, but all their games are very approachable, and fun to play.
