Are we really still beating the Mark Ritchie Pulp Fiction drum? It's been a rumor for years now. I know I had already heard about it when he was helping me wheel a Full Throttle across the parking lot to Twin Peaks for the launch party, and that was what? Expo 2015?

$50k pinball is ridiculous. I hope they don't sell a single damn unit at that price and crawl back into a hole feeling embarrassed for even attempting such a stupid stunt, but some idiot will probably shell out.

If you buy a fifty thousand dollar pinball machine you're a moron. I don't care who you are. If you're my friend and you spend that on a pin I'm going to tell you I think you're an idiot.

I will maybe make an exception for some random piece of rare game history, but a new game, designed to sell at that price? GTFO

Stern tried to buy out the Alien license from under Heighway, this is how they do business. These companies aren't your friends, they aren't sports teams, they're not "in it for the love", they're trying to make money. Stern would happily crush every other company, they liked being the "only" pinball company out there.

I love Charlie and Spooky, but I'm gonna suggest that the answer is to not use a license at all, not pick a different one that's not what you really wanted.

If you want to make a giant monsters pin then make your own, and live free of restrictions!

Look again, the glass is on in that video.
