For the first time maybe EVER, I think Stern may genuinely be worried by this game.

JJP just need to build them quick enough.

Just.

Quoted from NeilMcRae:

They need to use the music tied more to modes in my view, can you imagine iron maiden with hitting a target getting a short play of run to the hills? no no no. What they need is a banging high tempo remake of the Oompaloompa song as a mini frenzy wizard mode, or bin the kid multi ball and get them dancing all over the freaking screens during that multi ball make all those freaking lights light up like someone dropped a nuke, bring the movie into the modern era... (waits for the wrath of pinside to shoot me in the head).

You need to love this music, or it is just going to drive you insane

Imagine inviting friends round who are not into pinball.

'Guys, who is going to get kid multiball first'?

Silence.

What can they say?!

But WONKA clearly looks like JJP's best shooter by miles.

You gotta love the movie though.

Quoted from rai:

lol have you not seen or played DI?
How can you say DI is not a good shooter? It’s the definition of shoots like butter.

Played DI many many times.

For me it's overrated, and not as smooth as WONKA.

And I dislike the theme more than this game

Quoted from ronaldvg:

All that hype of everyone that got to play the game before the general public just shows me that no matter how much that everyone says that they are not being influenced by being treated otherwise or as "insiders" it really does influence almost everyone's opinion.
It just does. When you get asked to come to see a game early that makes you feel special and when you get to talk to the guys that make the machines, it makes you feel special. It happened to all of them.
What I find hilarious is that Kaneda always brags about being such a marketing guru and now he has fallen for the marketing trick of JJP and he does not even know it. The game is just another pinball machine. In the podcast just before the reveal he ranted about WONKA being the end-all pinball machine and now he is telling everybody that they should not have expected any wonders from "just" a pinball machine. I think he knows now he has been had.
Do not get me wrong, I always listen to the podcasts of Kaneda and also I was wondering what was so super special about Wonka that he was so excited, but now I know. He just felt special that day and that made the machine also special. Guess what, he's human after all
Disclaimer: this is just how I imagine it must have gone, I was not there with them.

Yup, making people feel special is the oldest sales trick in the book!
