I read this quote from the same USA pinball news mailer, see below.
quote-
There is one project we can guarantee won't arrive on schedule, since it is still sitting in the sidings outside Melbourne. For yet another year, there have been no machines produced by The Pinball Factory and no indications of any progress on their proposed remakes of Medieval Madness and Cactus Canyon. Despite our initial hopes, we have to conclude that these will never in fact be produced.It seems the guys in the USA know our friend as well as we do. lol
