Quoted from RCA1:

It also seems like people are starting to lose faith in pre-orders in general.

GOOD.

Maybe startup companies should have a business plan before coming here and taking people's money.

Maybe startup companies should deliver on their promises instead of coming up with excuse after excuse as to why they're months to years behind.

Maybe......just maybe.....startup companies should have their OWN ass on the line, their OWN balls in a sling, and their OWN money on the line instead of coming here as a charity case, taking people's money, and then either turning tail and running while whimpering that their glass feelings got broken, saying making pinball machines is too hard, or flat out ignoring people's questions and just doing whatever they want without any reason or accountability.

I will make sure that I burn all of my machines to the ground before I ever go in on a pre-order. If some more remakes happen after MMr ("Are you ready for the next Attack....?"), those machines will be on the production line, with the PPS logo stamped on the box as they are getting packed in, and my name on one with my vehicle waiting outside, and my money in my hand as I see it loaded into the back of my truck/SUV.

Pre-orders....might as well call it Ponzi-orders.

Quoted from Excalabur:

As a point, Spooky did just fucking make machines. They've made a hundred or so at this point. But Charlie's not willing to bet the farm on Wooly, and given that it's a contract job, I don't blame him.

You're absolutely correct. Spooky is pretty much the exception.

PPS is also an exception. While delays have sucked, Rick has been straight with the community (in my limited viewing), and I respect that.
