JJP's update

Greetings JJP Fans:

Today marks one of our biggest milestones as Jersey Jack Pinball, Inc. proudly announces that it has begun shipping Wizard of Oz Pinball Machines!   

While the proverbial yellow brick road may have been a bit longer than anticipated, we are absolutely thrilled to be shipping games now. In these coming weeks the game code will continue to evolve with regular updates as Keith and Ted implement more modes and rules.....If you "tweet", we have created a special Twitter Page to announce code updates when they're ready. We will also announce when code updates are available on on the Jersey Jack Pinball Facebook Page .

We are completing more games daily and shipping them as they go through burn-in and final testing. The games are shipping in the queue in which orders were placed.       

Whether you have been following our journey since day one, or have recently found out about our company, Thank You. This experience has been extremely special and we could not have imagined abundance of support we have been given. JJP couldn't be more thrilled that The Award Winning game has begun to make its way to amusement centers, taverns, truck stops, amusement parks and home game rooms around the globe!   

A billion ideas, thousands of parts and millions of dollars have created this game for you!

I wonder if Bumper will be advantaged or disadvantaged? Surely they would send all at once, and it depends if they honor the early buyers to get them out sooner rather than later?

Might have to do a bit of sneaky investigation.

not too worried, my LOTR just turned up at the front door.........................

When Bumpers container leaves at the end of May, I would be surprised if they didn't put every single WOZ order in it to capitalise on the ease and security of it all. Certainly would make things easier for both JJP and Aussie WOZ customers ??  Just have to wait n see or send a email to Jen at JJP or the guys at Bumper ??

Here is a photo of one of the first production WOZ games delivered to the Seattle Pinball Museum. Notice its next to a ACDC Pinball.

Best of both worlds. Cool !

Here is a recent video, taken by one of JJP's software programmers. This is version 1.01, the first batch shipped with version 1.02.

http://www.youtube.com/embed/3OmfKpgBNps?autoplay=1&rel=0

It came with the following information:

This video is a bit old but you get to see a random crystal ball mode and munchkin frenzy and a wizard award. This is only a few new bits
Note the modes stack so at first when I lit frenzy, lights out was still running till one ball drained. Crystal ball modes are 2 ball multi's
You also get to see new lighting effects. Some in attract mode. You get to see the blue "flash" when you hit a "ball" target.

Another short video, taken at the recent Allentown show. This one shows some lighting effects, animations and basic rules:

http://www.youtube.com/embed/jpET-E9tEKU?autoplay=1&rel=0

Also, Pinnovators have made a couple of mods for the game including an audio input board to turn the game into a jukebox and an external master volume control which fits on the coin door:

Text and photos from Pinnovators:

For those who ventured over to the Pinnovators booth in allentown we unveiled two aftermarket products. One is the audio input board for Jjp games. This will allow you to turn any Jjp game into a Juke Box using your iPod, iPhone, droid, or any mp3 device. Flick a switch and you can play any music you want while the game is in attract mode, cough or not sure why you would want to but even during game play.. Our other item will be a master volume control built into the door plate. People were asking for this option so much recently that we prototyped one last week and brought it to the show. This also will work for any Jjp machine going forward and plugs directly into the door.
We will be taking no deposit pre orders emails as we did at the show if anyone interested just email me directly at lorenzo@pinnovators.com. Price point isn't finalized but it should be about $50 for the audio input board kit plug n play, and about $45 for the master volume door controls.
 
Thanks,
Lorenzo
