[Fungi]

Was this confirmed?

 

[Kolchak357]

Yes, it was mentioned a while ago.

Here is one of the mentions. See post 22.

More STERN tables, please! and....I can't wait to my hands on Big Juicy Melons!!

 

[TomL]

Any updates on this? Asking for a friend...

 

[Kolchak357]

SYT was up there for a visit and I think he said that Big Juicy looks close to finished. Big Buck Hunter, not so much.
Still no release date though.

 

[mojnma]

Both tables are listed ich HOF score on iOS.

 

[shutyertrap]

It's in beta right now with Big Buck Hunter, so should be released fairly soon.

 

[strells]

Coming next week to Steam and mobile according to the Twitch feed!

 

[timxtr]

Can has Xbone pleez? Now??

 

[tomwaits]

Did they mention a price?

 

[shutyertrap]

Did they mention a price?

No, but the beta has it listed as $9.99 per or $14.99 for both

 

[wilbers]

said $14.99 for both in the Twitch video. If they are offered individually as well I'm assuming they may get some sales of Big Buck Hunter by itself, can't see a rush to buy Whoa Nellie! individually, but can now see where the melon balls came from. Suppose Stern must have found a demand for a Whoa Nellie! (real rather than virtual) type of table or they wouldn't have made it - lowest scoring game this century? Console release shortly after the Steam release on 7th September.

100% those watermelon balls are going to get lost on the table. Sticking with the classics haha

Impressions from an Android beta tester:

I'm prepared to give Big Buck some time. I've never even seen one in the wild, let alone played it, but it seems fun with a lot of humor. Think Fish Tales, but with a hunting theme.

Whoa Nellie!, unfortunately, just doesn't stack up for me I get the general idea, but all Whoa Nellie! does is highlight just how good those 60s and 70s Gottlieb designers were at making the most out of the rudimentary technology available at the time. If it were an EM that came out in that time period, it would've been considered run-of-the-mill at best.

From the ipdb.org listing for Whoa Nellie...

"This is a converted game using Gottlieb's 1957 'Continental Cafe' and with its rules slightly adjusted."

 

[Citizen]

"With its rules slightly adjusted" is a bit of an understatement. The pf layout is also pretty significantly shuffled around. It's definitely not Gottlieb's original design.

More importantly, when do we get the Pabst Can Crusher retheme?

 

[Plungemaster]

Please make them buy one by one.

Do this also on Switch for all Stern tables.

Cheers

 

[Gorgar]

Is this still releasing today?

 

[QuickAceItsA2ndChance]

It's at the Google Play store.

 

[wilbers]

Its on Steam as well, but only available to buy in app, not on Steam itself. Awarded me the 'Whoa Nellie Scores' achievement when I started TPA, also unless there is something wrong with my settings that table seems very bright.
