@@kennytaylor5849 you don't say :) do some homework as to why this cohort is perhaps more of an issue!

Do you own KZbin?

A bot - in what sense? :)

@@neilmcrae1not that good ( no offense)

@@KellenFleming damn right 🤣😂

The concern is that new game sales are massively down, current prices vs second owner huge gap too. Brand new Foo premium box not opened £7K! Here in the UK our prices are substantially higher owing to distro markup.

@@neilmcrae1 fair enough I am not privy to any sort of sales numbers. 1000 LEs seems very unsustainable. I’m taking more about the $7k-$10k pinballs. All the current manufactures are kind of in the same ballpark on price. I don’t think we can really complain much about it or think their pricing is killing pinball sales. They’re objectively more affordable than ever before. Say Stern drops their price $1000 and they currently make $2k per game after all is said and done. They now have to sell double the number of games to make the same amount of money. There is only so much you can cut into the profit margin before it just doesn’t make any sense. I have no idea what their number are but you get what I’m saying? I dunno I think they’ve done the math and the business is more sustainable as a higher profit, slightly lower volume, luxury toy than a more commoditized hyper low margin business. Lower pinball sales is a factor of so many things. I don’t think they sell many more if they drop a pro $500 or something. Inflation alone is up for 30% here in the US the last 8 years.

I don’t disagree about the need to expand the hobby - but this was like shutting your eyes and firing a machine gun and hoping you hit something you want to hit and hoping you don’t hit something you don’t want to hit. People who have the opportunity to buy pinball machines don’t watch any of the channels that Stern used and here is a simple question why not include both?

@@neilmcrae1 Sure it would be good to have also early access to some really good pinball content creators as well. I think it might be hard (especially for Stern) to choose who to ask for. I mean lots of those who are making content in really good level are somehow linked to some distributors as well, so some could see slight advantage / disadvantage with this. And sure they can be asked to sign NDA but still, you know. But I really hope that this will get better in the future. It just seems strange that Stern is so poor with marketing decisions at this point.

Sadly lots of pinball and gaming people!

Many thanks!

Welcome aboard!

with 4 being so bad we hoped otherwise :D

ask on pinside - there is a thread all about this game there - I'm sure Dave will want to help.

Was AMD driver bug - latest drivers fix the issue.

long OCULINK cables are challenging beyond 1.5 meters and you start to see issues.

@@neilmcrae1 i see....🤔 i dont have to connect it to an external monitor do i? I rather use my legion go instead of using it as a desktop..

@@thatonegamer2709 no you can use the legion screen.

It may have a future but as a core piece of pinball it's just not doing it.

Depends on the car!

If I was selling it - for sure!

On TCM it activates a multiplier not sure on Looney

@@neilmcrae1 it activates the selected acme item, and the second flipper button changes the item selected (if you have multiple)

Thanks Jamie - was good to see you at TPF and saw you guys running two rigs at TPF- did that work ok?
