There are no current delays.   We are just about ramped up to 40 games a week....Games are shipping. We are shipping in batches...Now that everything is in place, proper suppliers for each part, smooth sailing on that front from here on out...

...Games are built in order.  No one got their games before someone else who ordered first unless they bought from a distributor who ordered day 1.   The distrib can ship the games in whatever order they want.  JJP has no control over that.   Any games purchased direct are getting shipped direct in the order they came in with very few exceptions.  those exceptions are limited to games like mine which I need to develop on prod hardware and a few traveling road show games that end up at pin shows.   That's it. 

OK, so the thread got heated but some good information has also come out of it such as the above.

Ok.. we have Mikes opinion which we are all aware of... we have yours which we are all aware of... we have Pinchromes which we are also aware of...

So, Homepin has told us he doesn't like the PC-based system because of concerns about its longevity.

Whether or not such concerns turn out to be justified, perhaps we could also hear from Pinchroma (or others) as to why JJP chose to go down this route?
What are the advantages of such a system, why was it required?

(Apologies if I have missed such an explanation posted here or elsewhere)
