He also says that a title that wont do well in Europe, or wont do well in a alcohol bar style location, will never do well.
When asked about WOZ, he mentions it wont do well in Europe, and askes will it be a machine people put into bars etc ?


Big Buck Hunter?


Yeh yeh yeh..... JJP looks bad... Stern looks great. Gary is fantastic.

Arent Stern still releasing software codes for ACDC?

Gary is pooping his pants over WOZ.

Ok.. so we have continued delays, but this is no Wayne dickhead here.. we KNOW the game will get delivered. We KNOW that the cheap cost cutting exercises by Stern have been avoided. We KNOW that all boards have been made with the enthusiast being able to repair in mind..we KNOW that it will be a top quality machine once these last hurdles are over.
..And when that happens... all will be forgiven cos pinball people are like that... Have i got my machine???..Yes???.. Ok im really bloody happy!

I think JJP making Stern look smart is a bit of a over statement... Stern can put out 10 machines whilst waiting for WOZ... wont make any difference, JJP will still wallop Stern and Gary knows that which is why he had to put out a title like ACDC at a rock bottom price... OR.... maybe Transformers " mini me" for almost the same money... %.% %.%

I agree... Jack has been a bit naive when it comes to making a pinball, but he admits to that. I dont think he realised just how " cloak and dagger" it was going to be. He does now though.
Lesson learned.. move onto game 2.

To us the WOZ title is lame, but go into any US  online costume retailer and read the sections.... Halloween...Adult etc... then with a section all of its own... Wizard Of Oz.
This film is still huge in US.. theres something about it that hits the US tender spot.

I wont be buying WOZ and wont be buying a Stern.. have no invested interest in either. But i do believe in Jack at JJP and i do believe he will deliver all that he has promised.

Being unhappy because youve put money upfront and there are delays??? I dont need to be a Genco Fortune Teller to forsee that one... and i still scratch my head as to why someone is willing to stump up shitloads of cash for a concept... anyone ever seen the show " Hustle"?...
