SDTM Episode 97: Stern's Jurassic Park Pinball First Impressions

[@mancavemoviemadness7464]

I'm blown away with how great this game looks! I'm not going to dog on what wasn't done right or what wasn't included, just extremely happy this finally got made. Lol, hope you liked the JP Jeep & mancave dinosaur pics I sent you Zach. Bring on the JP LE! Thanks

[@SDTM]

Mancave Movie Madness so excited for ya. Can’t wait to see it in your lineup

[@-COZ]

Definitely looks like a great layout. Hopefully Greg will love it!

[@SDTM]

Brian Cosner I have no doubt he will fall in love and never let go

[@davefraser8482]

THe original score BEATS everything. Nice work, Greg!!!!!! :)

[@pinballlover4981]

Love this channel, keep those videos coming! Thanks.

[@SDTM]

Pinball Lover if you love it then we will keep creating! Thanks for joining the SDTM fam

[@Mo_Ketchups]

Listening to Greg makes me thank Almighty GOD I’m not obsessed with this franchise, ESPECIALLY on a pin that shoots like the Premium and w the new 30th Anny CODE just out! What an insane millstone to have around your neck finding anything & everything remotely not SPOT-ON w these kid movies. Hooooo WEEEE!! 😮‍💨😮‍💨😮‍💨 I just bought my Premium & the way THIS shoots, I wouldn’t care if the theme was “ISHTAR” or “Leonard Part 6”! 🤷‍♂️

[@matthewpilla4323]

SPLIT SCREEN SDTM! Thanks guys for another great video. Bring on more content with split screen, You guys are BUSY men so MORE SDTM the better! Greg in his JP LAIR!!!

[@SDTM]

Thank you Matt. It’s not for every thing but things like this it seems to work!

[@nickatmacomb8965]

@@SDTM I thought the split screen was pretty cool as well! It worked well!

[@turbografx7]

In all honesty, I'm really excited to play this game! It looks packed!! Elwin is going to do an amazing job with the rules too. Great theme, layout, and (probably rules?). I also think this game lends itself so well to the modding community too. I'm really looking forward to playing this game!

[@PurpleFoxArcade]

Love that Jurassic Park shirt. One of my faves.

[@blakemink1464]

Flow on this will be insane, can't wait.

[@SDTM]

Blake Mink I think you may be right (giddiness ensues)

[@blakemcelhaney]

I'm definitely one of the people digging what we've been shown so far, I think they are going for the park itself is the theme and not the movie.

[@silentlamb7043]

lol Jurassic hair gel lol stay ott dude you rock 💪

[@jasonu7471]

Save yourself an hour: They love it...cuz. Greg is just auditioning for a part in the next Jurassic Park movie. One hour long audition...... (sorry i had to after reading PacDorks reply lol !) Great info guys and very entertaining as usual !

[@SDTM]

Jason U damn that is good. Nicely done J

[@nickatmacomb8965]

Another fun episode guys. Thank you for doing this preview! Would love to hear your opinions after watching the deadflip stream. Greg I know you are upset about the lack of assets but I think they money they saved on assets they put into the playfield. It looks packed!

[@Murphy_Peoples]

So glad that Bone didn't completely sell out and love it "just because it's JP". Well Done sir! Extremely Honest initial review. ; )

[@breger2323]

Great video guys, love Greg's Jurassic Park lair! Are the lamps in the background flashers? lol. Looking forward to seeing the stream, I feel the same as Greg, I'm dissapointed it is not more movie oriented. Looking forward to seeing it play though, could be great if animations and sounds are good.

[@SDTM]

I completely agree (Greg)

[@pinballguru]

LOVE YOU GUYS!!!!!

[@SDTM]

Marc Freidberg we love you more

[@-COZ]

Never heard anyone mention this : do you think John borg is upset he didn’t get to design the new JP since he did the last 2?

[@EquipmentReviewer]

Split screen format is pretty cool!!👍👍👍 By the way, any new style shirts coming soon?

[@SDTM]

EquipmentReviewer we wondering how everyone would take the split screen. We would never replace the original format but this style allows for more content especially for quick impression/news content

[@SDTM]

EquipmentReviewer restocking shirts are coming

[@dakotadeshazer901]

I see cosmic carnival in the back ground. Are you guys doing that soon?

[@isocubesoftware2713]

I am interested in this, as well :)

[@hofbj1]

How about a jp1 visitors center topper?

[@foxhound34]

I've always wanted a Jurassic Park pinball machine. I had no idea this new table was being developed until they launched the teaser video. I was so excited...then I saw the table and was like ahhhh, wtf is this crap.

[@retroelectrical]

Really strange that Ford and Jeep both refused/passed on having their names in a pinball machine based on one of the biggest movies of all time.

[@SDTM]

retroelectrical I don’t think that was the case

[@isocubesoftware2713]

I resent that, I am not a pinball person!! I watch because of the awesomeness of Zach and Greg! 49:30

[@SDTM]

Isocube Software hell yeah!!!! And we love ya for it

[@BenLaurence]

First thing I thought when I saw Jurassic Park was it just looks like a generic dinosaur pinball. Like if you took the JP logo of the game it’s just a Dino pin. It would be like making a Star Wars game but not having Luke Skywalker and Darth Vader. I was slightly disappointed with the JP reveal. The dinosaur head is cool as hell though

[@cigarsandpins4781]

I know this is very juvenile of me but I still can’t stop laughing about the artists name Johnny crap. I truthfully thought you were kidding at first you can’t make this up.😂😂😂

[@jbug45945]

I'm glad they didn't use film clips that I've seen many times already. I like the animation and video that they came up with. Original voices would have been great but that's OK also. Stern did a great job and I will be contacting Zach about the Premium version.

[@SDTM]

June Marshall good take June. And I will be more than happy to help ya (Zach)

[@pinballguru]

Greg, your collection needs a video.

[@SDTM]

Marc Freidberg it’s coming :)

[@DJDonkeytron]

Bone's dream theme brought to you by Stern's 2019 TWIPY award winning GAME OF THE YEAR team which included: Best layout (Elwin) AND best rules (Rick Nagle)

[@jbug45945]

Great story from Greg about the lady and passion. I agree 1000% and am glad that I have passion about a pinball and other things with God and Jesus being at the top of the list.

[@netropolis]

"N-now eventually you do plan to have dinosaurs on your-on your dinosaur tour, right?" I can't BELIEVE they wouldn't integrate film clips into the animations. And why ONLY Nedry? It might as well be a Carnisaur Machine with a John Williams Soundtrack!

[@loubilly]

Please have Kaneda as a guest on your show

[@jlarsson1978]

Greg you are the man. Just sayin.

[@SDTM]

Ha ha thank you Johan

[@PhilthyMcNastie]

we got JP now come on adam's family

[@havardhagen2278]

Iron Maiden or Jurassic Park both Premium? Why?

[@jasonfowler1097]

I thought Greg was having seance! Lol.

[@SDTM]

Jason Fowler Greg is still fully aroused haha

[@sparxies]

I know this is from 3 years ago, but couldn't someone just 3D print a perfect replica Jeep to replace the truck that's included? Resin printers are so detailed now, it would need a bit of a paint job too, but with a bit of effort you'd be able to make it look exactly like the original. Although, does the jeep in the game get hit a lot? That might be the only downfall with printing one, not sure how long it would last getting hit by ball bearings all the time - you might end up with an exploding Jeep! Alternatively, could you buy a similar sized, officially licensed toy Jeep from the film and replace the existing one? I guess it depends on how it's mounted on that metal pole. I'd probably repaint the raptor too, I'm sure anyone with a steady hand could quickly paint over the blue parts and make them blend into the existing skin colour. Maybe I'm just overthinking it, but I need things to look exactly like the film being referenced!

[@Srt8Adam]

1. It makes me sad that this game isn’t what Greg was looking for, I really wanted that for him. 2. I’m a Jeep guy, I have three Jeeps and a 2020 gladiator, that monster truck kills it for me, I know they couldn’t get the license but they didn’t have to put it everywhere C. The goonies would be a great pinball machine! Everyone would buy it, go Zach

[@pickafingname]

Yep -artwork is pretty lame, like 1980's throw back/up. Looks fun though. I question the placement/purpose of the post in front of the upper right flipper. Aesthetically the placement looks stupid (should line up with flipper) however a ball coming down hugging the rail will hit that rubber post and deflect - to where? I would assume it serves a greater purpose?

[@SDTM]

Chris Ellison it’ll be interesting to see if it compromises the flow out of the right orbit

[@Horty57]

First thought before watching, Zach needs to be on the right and Greg needs to be on the left. This is weird bros!!

[@SDTM]

Adam Horton agree but not sure how to swap it

[@Horty57]

@@SDTM No worries! I just turned my monitor upside down! I haven't seen the reveal stream yet but my thoughts are pretty similar. A little sad about the licensing issues they had but I completely understand. I know they would have wanted all of it but sometimes it just doesn't happen that way. I'm hit or miss on the art package, will like to see what the new guy does in the future. As for shots, the game looks like it is going to be a great shooter! The story might be immersive with a choose your own adventure feel. I have high hopes for the rules and code to help bridge the gap of the licensing shortcomings. Thanks again guys!!

PUMPERS!! I say!! do not trust the hype!!! You will be sorry. Typical Stern Pump And Dump. You are forewarned.

[@SDTM]

Conspiracy Theory!!!! Bigfoot is real!!!

[@davidrendon9838]

I’ll buy it,... then trade it for Elvira.

[@vividpsychosis8222]

My issue with the car is even if they didn’t get the ford or jeep liscense, why not still use the colors and logo on the side just like in the movie, over their made up pretend vehicle??? Colors aren’t protected

[@PacDork]

Save yourself an hour: They love it...cuz they're selling them. One hour long ad. :)

[@SDTM]

PacDork damn that whole hour of infotainment was only a sales pitch?! I think you know the absurdity of that feedback, right? Well, hopefully

[@PacDork]

:) :) :) :) :)

[@pinballlover4981]

PacDork what a dumb comment

[@PacDork]

Nah....we're just in this new era of "EVERYTHING IS AWESOME" even when these $8000 games are severely flawed & not as good as what came before...these guys are retailers, so of course they'll hype up the new games as the best things ever. The voice work in this new JP is absolutely amateur and embarrassing. The LCD animation is circa 15 years ago. My wife was watching the stream and was wondering why the park workers kept getting run over by the car lol...poor staging. I'm sure the game is fun...but the presentation is way too mediocre for what these games cost. Those horrible voices are just a dealbreaker...obnoxious, grating, poorly acted. This is X-Men/BDK territory of awful voices. Ken Hale's music, as usual, is super boring. Stern should have never parted ways with David Thiel.

[@pinballlover4981]

John Rayne dumb meaning that He could have elaborated more, which He did in his next comment, saying why Stern machines suck, which I totally agree with.

[@fullcontrol1000]

Never gonna watch those guys again, all talk no show.

[@SDTM]

fullcontrol1000 ahhhh, what kinda show were you wanting?
