Quoted from TheLaw:It would be hard to do better but he could have plenty of ideas left in the tank. He'll he could even get a theme he actually likes and knock it out of the park.
Stern could "do better" by making sure they support Keith with folks that know how to engineer mechs that work reliably. IMDN really didn't have any exotic mechs, yet there were so many issues (particularly with the Premium/LE model). The problems have been very well documented on Pinside. Took me a solid month to dial in my Premium. I've owned many NIB Stern's...IMDN was definitely an outlier in this regard.
