The Making of The Uncanny X-Men

[@WarriorTier]

I love this game! Absolutely plan to own one. Jack does the best playfields ever.

[@briantong]

Love owning this as my first pinball! Fixes are happening and you all have been pro active with it. I appreciate that! Looking forward to new code releases.

[@dregm]

This was my first pinball too and I love it !!! I am the guy who recommended you to go to sterns location at CES , 😅 thanks again and happy to see you are also a pinball lover 🙌🏼.

[@penzcrazier]

First also. 800 games and counting.

[@dominickolas]

One of the best Pro games that Stern makes. I always appreciate this kind of behind the scenes videos. Thanks.

[@jlarsson1978]

Played this game (Pro) for the first time yesterday and it was awesome. The playfield layout is fantastic and the game is fast as hell (which I like). Great job!

[@colemangreen4191]

These videos always make me want the game so much more.

[@criticalmasspin]

Enjoyed playing the game at Expo. Enjoyed talking to Jeremy, Jack, Jerry, and Zac at Expo also. Had a blast and thanks for everything you do. The autograph session was a huge surprise because I didn't think it would be entertaining. Wow was I wrong! Stern factory tour was amazing too!

[@OddButCools]

The Danger Room keeps you sharp. The multi ball is difficult. I’ll never get bored of smashing the Sentinel. Great times.

[@markm9282]

LE 282 owner and just got my shooter lane fix kit today. Not thrilled with having to "fix" a 13k machine guys. Hopefully the code progresses and makes this game play as good as it looks!

[@briantong]

Did you see the Nightcrawler animation, I'm pretty sure that's new, so new code?

[@pinfreak8679]

We love this layout! Thank you. Can’t wait to see what you do with the future modes. These music tracks seem new, will they be added soon?! They rock. Awesome sauce!!

[@markm9282]

Lol yeah LE owner here and o haven't heard em yet..though admittedly I suck at this game

[@16BitBear]

Loving my pro model. I still need to fix some issues, but looking forward to seeing where the code goes. Hopefully the next update blows our minds.

[@sternpinballinc]

You'll love it!

[@16BitBear]

@@sternpinballinc Oh you tease you. I was testing some camera set ups so maybe if I get things rigged up I'll showcase it on my channel.

[@BrewersArcade]

Insane amount of work!

[@vindictive27]

Love the game, really hoping to see some more substantial updates to the rules and audio/video package.

[@sternpinballinc]

We hear you. Stay tuned!

Z.Y. ... I'm dead on the (P)inside

[@cameronbarrow6834]

Elwin and danger are making some crazy machines at the moment

[@christianwarren8726]

Unbelievable playfield design and artwork. Still yet to play my LE but cannot wait! 🙂

[@JohnChisholm-y8g]

Great to hear..can't wait to see what u do with this game as it is so unique!

[@mrtablesalt]

Where's the code! Love the layout.

[@rexdeanrds]

The layout is one of the best in the last 10 years! I would love to see the code match the playfield layouts genius!

[@PinballMom]

Great Job Jack! We are loving ours!

[@sternpinballinc]

What's the high score looking like?

[@PinballMom]

@@sternpinballinc my 12 year old son is around 530 million.

[@TatterD]

This game is really fun and I play it 5 to 15 times I every time I visit my local arcade. I like the unique layout and how punishing and brutal it can be. I've gotten pretty good at recovering ball control and strategically nudging early to keep it (mostly) out of the danger room and that right outlane. I'm still dialing in my ramp shots... once I use up the tilt warnings, my ball seconds are numbered. I understand some of the aggravation some players are feeling for this game, but stick with it, hit some combos and see how those safe returns and quick progress through a mode advance your game and score quickly. Give yourself a pat on the back when tracking the balls in the danger room and main playfield simultaneously! Sentinel multiball is one of the hardest I've ever played, I think I got a superjackpot once. I really think this game has made me a better player in terms of ball recovery and predicting where an out of control ball is headed. The game might kick my butt but the practice and challenge is all part of the pinball experience.

[@romskip8876]

On the verge of ordering one, love the pf design and art style. Still uncertain if it will be in my gameroom at home.. or in my toy store ;)

[@mooncloud6563]

I played the pro version at a local retailer. I did a cool whip shot on the upper left ye ye

[@earnthis1]

Awesome looking game from an awesome company

[@sephirothAD]

I have an LE version of this and I'm loving it as well so far. Two things that I don't care for though: the voice of Rogue and the left sentinel finger that flips the ball. Maybe I'm just too use to the old 90's cartoon but this version of Rogue doesn't sound right to me. The sentinel finger has stopped the ball a few times and flung it backwards so hard it hit the glass.

[@RojerLockless]

Stern rushing this game out before DND killed it. It's so sad because it has such potential but man the ball flying off the rails and draining gets old SO FAST and the plunger not working makes me sad. Already putting mine up for sale.

[@andrewlee88]

Was waiting for ChatGPT dictation to be featured for Call-outs voices

[@DarkstalkerDF]

Next superhero pinball should be DC’s Titans, DC’s Doom Patrol, DC’s Harley Quinn, DC Creature Commandos 🤞🏾🙏🏾

[@markm9282]

I need a 78 Christopher Reeve Superman machine! 😊

[@TheGugustar]

I didn't hear the word flow even once. This is a missed opportunity. To me that's the greatest strength of this game. Shots feel very nice and surprising. Played it 1 afternoon on location, great first impression with the layout. Screen animatics (as they call it) feel cheap. Music sounds nice, but I couldn't bear it after 15 minutes.

[@Trevdawg48]

Jack Danger is awesome, but this game was rushed too much. I was a day one LE purchaser (#406). I have purchased many NIB Stern games, but this was my first NIB LE, purchased just because of the amazingly unique layout and because JD was involved. Then I heard he isn't even part of the process for updating the code? This game needs a lot of help with the code. It is still fun to shoot, but with great code, it could be the best pinball ever. I have always had great experiences with reliability with my Sterns. I tell people the only time I've had to take the glass off was to install the balls when I got it. Then I had multiple issues with GZ 70th, some of which are still not resolved 6 months later. As far as Uncanny X-men, it took a lot of time and hassle to get this game right, after I'd paid $13k for it! I bought 11 NIB games in 2024, including EIGHT Sterns, but I am out on NIB for a while after my experience with X-Men LE and Godzilla 70th.

[@joelpomerleau4015]

Love JD and I really wanted this machine but it’s broken. It’s one of the most beautiful machines I’ve ever seen and probably the coolest layout. However they needed more time to iron out the problems which include, the base code, plunge, left flipper hop and leap target. It hurts because I think now they’ll never let Jack be this ambitious again.

[@Wolfanoz]

Then don’t buy it? I have a pro and it’s fantastic. Yes, it does need more code but most Stern games start out that way. They’re at least listening to the customers who have them and are willing to rectify the problem. People are complaining way too much, nothing is perfect and it’s actually quite a challenging game (which is good, considering a lot of games are long if you’re decent).

[@svenop]

Too bad they rushed this one out the door

[@Ruuku1]

good game that has unfortunately been rushed to release. definitely needed more time in the oven

[@subiediaries6157]

Why do you say that?

[@CNKayutube]

Great job jack , now get Wednesday done so you can beat all TAF sales records!

[@cklinejr]

The making of Xmen: cut MONTHs out of the development schedule, put the worst person in charge of code, and pull everyone to work on D&D and then wonder why people are saying the game feels clunky and unfinished.

[@pinfreak8679]

Stop being bitter. Code is coming around

[@cklinejr]

​@pinfreak8679 Code isn’t going to fix incomplete design. Lol
