Brett, for a guy who sold his spot on the WoZLE line, you seem to have strong views on many aspects of this machine.

Do you regret selling?

Firstly, we are all grown men here so everyone shld talk to each other as u would if we were sitting at a dinner table being respectful. Without that, the whole fun goes out the window. Its no ones falult, it just happens, but dont get personal and if u do or someone does, dont hold it for anymore than 2 minutes cause its a waste of a great forum full of great people... (EB n AMusements only arguing bit etc)


Moving on, Pete, I dont regret selling because I honestly never buy the absolute first release ever of anything in series 1 (like cars, bikes or jetskis etc)..until the bugs are ironed out, cause u get the updated version which can be better...not guarranteed, but most times likely...people also like buying the 2nd series etc, when it comes to resale..it shld apply to pinball and WOZ.
I bought my AC/DC n X Men Pros cause Stern has been using similar technology for ages n there was little risk in that for me so they werent classed as first editions or series 1's etc. I did also play both AC/DC and X Men Pro before handing over the cash. Love those titles.

I will definately buy a WOZ..it was only canned because I learnt that they std model had all the same gameplay n playfield, and I can recreate the emerald green metal work easy enough, and the topper will be a easy after market purchase.  Pinball for me has always been about giving any visitors alot of different choices to play, espescially games they have heard about but may not have ever played. Espescially the $2 grand to $4 grand games that people were told were no good, but turn out to be winners.

These posts/threads I do are simply for a bit of entertainment, educational value for anyone open minded enough to think they might learn or teach something to someone else, and it gets people to think about things. Whilst 90 percent of people didnt bother really answering the questions/thoughts about how pinnys should or shouldnt be advertised in the future (because being secretive like the industry always has been verssus doing it the opposite way altogether) could be a different edge to the future of pinball.

I like Stern and JJP equally, they both make pinball, and I am passionate about pinball. It wasnt long ago that I suffered long time chronic depression and pinball gave me a focus in life, something to enjoy n share with my thoughts versus feeling miserable most of the time, keeping busy and having goals helps the curse of people with bad depression. (first n last time i will mention this here on AP so dont worry anyone) but I do things to tick the brain over and get people to look at somethings from a different perspective...The forum just cant be about how to fix a light bulb because u could do that by just producing a guide to pinball fixing 101 and that doesnt include peoples personalities and the enjoyment that comes with it...or the different views n passion about opinions...The Woz machine has stirred up passion, something some would say has been missing in pinball for a while.
AC/DC, X Men and Avengers has probably bought it back as well, with or without JJP, who cares, but its back..Thats excellent news. I just love being positive, because being depressed really sux.lol

Pinball advertising in the future and the way it is marketed it going to be just as important and different to how JJP and Stern have gone about building their pinball machines...its going to be fun to watch and hopefully something that gives people different things to wonder about...

One thing about JJPs way of doing things is that people do send the factory and JJP/Jack constant feedback, and that can be a very good thing, or bloody anooying with too many cooks in the kitchen, whereas Stern gets little feedback during a machines design cause it releases little info at all, so again, different things to think about.

Any post or thread i write is not mandatory to read or even answer for that matter as u all know...so if I annoy you, simply move on to the next persons thread. If u think u might learn something or have a laugh once in a while have a read...its all just for discussion and anti-boredom reasons I try to contribute.lol  Maybe i will take a month off typing so i dont annoy all of you which is not what i have ever tried to do meaningly.lol
