Quoted from Yipykya:

Maybe someone should just ask Jared directly. Isn't this along the lines of some of what his job at Stern entails? As the social media handler he would probably be the one to take this discussion to the right people.

Copied from another thread where Jared responded to the discussion and said he is happy to answer questions within the confines of his position. PM him.

Quoted from Erik:

Great news, guys! Raul just confirmed Tron VE! Hard to hear over the hum of microwaves but sounds like it comes with 9.3 surround, qubit hypervisor, 3d colorDMD, VE-only code updates, tachyon illuminated fiber-optics, pingulp fountain drink dispenser, 30% more Quorra, arcade mod 5.0, optional onsite assembly by Benheck+Jpop, rhodium plated armor, and 24/7 tech support by vid1900. $5999 MSRP, shipping January.

This is exactly how the announcement will come when Stern makes it official. But I doubt it'll come standard with the drink dispenser. Let's be realistic.

Quoted from foureyedcharlie:

Does anyone have the balls to start a new tron ve thread? I really want a straight up poll, no bs. Would you buy a new tronve for $5k or less....yes or no.....no i dont want to hear about premium crap, $5k or less. I'm certain there are over 100 commits just on pinside alone.

If you look at the sheer number of Tron VE threads that have been created that in itself should tell you about demand wanted for NIB. Funny what those threads share in common.

Inquisitors: "I want Tron VE"
Owners: "Never going to happen."
Pictures of horses being beaten and trains derailing.

Circle of life.

Quoted from centerflank:

Not true, I'm an owner and I can see it being made again and if it is that's all good with me.

I stand corrected.

Wait a second... haven't you been trying to sell yours recently?

#232 8 years ago
Quoted from centerflank:

Sorta not really. Maybe, final answer.

You are everyone's Canary. If you're seen selling it... same as letting the cat out of the bag.

GLWS but I'm waiting to see the LE VE.

#236 8 years ago
Quoted from centerflank:

Enjoy the wait. Last hobbit pre orders will be delivered by then

Quoted from kvan99:

OK here's what Gomez said on tour that may quell the licensing issues about re-running older titles. Around the 13:30 tick mark
thanks to cooked71 pinsider and his buddy Dave.

"A game is only ever over if a customer doesn't want it."

There, it was stated definitively.

So much for the 3 year licensing arguements.

So Tron will be remade yet again and it will be what customers want. VE with LE playfield features? Pretty much would have to be, eh?

Hold on to your butts, NIB inquisitors will be happy, LE owners will be butt hurt.

Can't know when it will happen but demand pricing says it's gonna.

#287 8 years ago
Quoted from Rarehero:

Tell that to the licensors & Stern's bean counters.

Not if like 10 customers want it. Of if Disney doesn't want to re-license. Or they want too much money.

Will never happen. Stern won't re-make LEs. Period.

Sure....how many years will these Tron threads go on for?

Yeah yeah we know how you feel. Sorry it's going down this way but it is what it is. Sad for some.

#289 8 years ago
Quoted from Lethal_Inc:

Yeah but not LE features. It will be a pro with a few additions.

Perhaps a Premium version with different cabinet and back glass art and ALL the LE features.

#295 8 years ago
Quoted from Rarehero:

Or no version cuz the game is DONE!
Offer proof if you know otherwise. Repeating a lie enough times doesn't make it a fact.

Wow, really? I could say the same for your consitent repeated stance. It's stated vehemently and tirelessly in every VE thread ad nauseum.

I'm simply stating my observation of what's what here. No reason to carry on and get too invested either, it's not like I have any "insider" information I'm hiding from you.

#297 8 years ago
Quoted from flynnibus:

no, its just like when people say "anything is possible" - that doesn't mean it will happen or is likely to happen.
If you throw enough money at something.. and time.. they can do anything. That doesn't mean it would be a good choice for them.. and that's ultimately what matters. Building games they can do so in a profitable manner.
They can always go back and get new rounds of licensing... but that doesn't mean its always viable to do so.
Don't take a single statement to be more than it is...

I know. Your right about a single statement. Just celebrating what's in this thread and admiring the gathering momentum Stern is bound to notice with all these fun Tron VE threads people love to hate. Still believe it will eventually materialize at some point for the NIB Tron inquisitors.
