Quoted from spinal:Yes, innovative hardware and fun, but does this take something from the Shadow world, something from the theme and try to bring into physical hardware? I haven't seen the movie so have no idea.
The dagger on the diverters is in the film. The ring is in the film. The film ain't that bad. It is a blend of different 'Shadows' mostly following the story lines of the old radio shows.
Quoted from spinal:Mechanical Theme Integration is about making something from the theme come to life in pinball hardware and not necessarily about that hardware being something we have never seen before (but bonus points if it is novel of course).
The trick is come up with something that is a new idea. The rocking mini playfield on JJP Pirates looks to be unique. This main issue would be reliability on a pin for the arcade operators. Will there be another Rudy? Most likely answer is no.
If that Time Shock pin becomes a working prototype, that is something I want to see more of. Taking a video pin game and creating a real pin. So far it appears to be a design challenge and a large financial challenge.
