    Old Sterns

    Stern does not consider Stern Electronics to be the same company because that one was started by Sam Stern. (Old Williams legend and the father of Gary Stern) Data East is the beginning of what we consider The modern Stern. It was Started by Gary Stern and Joe Kaminkow. Software designer Lonnie...

    Coming November 28th 2016 Officially

    Farsight is not allowed to say anything at all before Stern tell them to "open up and say Ahhhh" regarding spa This will undoubtedly cause a few (even more than usual) hiccups. The pr dep at Stern is a strange, strange beast, so expect strangeness(not sharm) Let the entertainment begin :)

    Love, love, love this thing. Really surprised how much I enjoyed it. Simple and genius concept

    Stern Pinball Arcade Release Dates

    There usually is nothing extra on the LE versions VS Premium to speak of. Only difference is Artwork on cab and backglass + a shaker (sometimes) I guess if you are playing with VR, different cab artwork is cool. But otherwise I don't really see the big gain on other normal platforms. It's cool...

    Modern Stern Pinball tables (1999-2016) for Stern TPA

    Me too. I used to own a pro and I have played the premium. Pro is the clear winner on that one. Metallica, Game of Thrones, Transformers and X-men are the games I find does not offer enough extra value for the premium or LE and Games of Thrones is actually better on the pro.

    Modern Stern Pinball tables (1999-2016) for Stern TPA

    That's not a theory :D When you say something like this: you make it sound like you know something that you probably do not. Please tell me what I got wrong in my earlier comment about license cost. If you make a believable argument, I will be the first one to admit I was wrong To make it...

    Table Pack #56 Speculation

    Great news. Cent 37 is very cool. I am hoping that the other one is Jacks Open- that one is a fun drop-target bonanza, but I have a strong feeling that it will be Ace High, since that one has been in the Farsight system before. (Gottlieb coll) It has also been in the list of tables in the...

    Modern Stern Pinball tables (1999-2016) for Stern TPA

    They could.......If they wanted to pay extra for another license. Sounds like a poor use of license money to me. Hypothetical scenario: We have Family guy, now do we pay up a huge extra license cost for the same table with another theme or do we go for a new table with a different license...

    Modern Stern Pinball tables (1999-2016) for Stern TPA

    I think that it is mostly the still incomplete software that is the problem with Kiss (The citys don't do anything etc.) No more bugs than other titles, like GOT or Ghostbusters It got a lot better when Lyman took over software duties on it, earlier this year. One more substantial software...

    Modern Stern Pinball tables (1999-2016) for Stern TPA

    PC/Consoles would handle the transition with no problem. But I guess it would demand some extra work from Farsight. Would be cool to have some lcd games sooner or later but I guess we are in no rush, since there are plenty of others to choose from. Yes, there are many other bands I would rather...

    Modern Stern Pinball tables (1999-2016) for Stern TPA

    Batman 66 is out next month and Aerosmith in January. 2 more for the taking :) I guess we will also see a few more Data East and Sega tables in STPA so there is actually a healthy amount of tables to sustain this app for a while We even might see a few Old Stern tables (I hope) I actually am...

    Quick! Delete Five Tables!

    Premier all the way for me 01. Victory (a few nice shots but I just find it so extremely boring and repetitive) 02. Rescue 911 (this table has no redeeming features at all for me) 03. Going Nuts (of all the rare tables they could have gone for? Just irritating, all the way) 04. Lights Camera...

    Black Flaggers (Pinball Wicked)

    This is looking very interesting. Sounds like you are on the path to something good here. I hope there is an option to have a regular shiny silver ball also ;) Just give that ball a little more weight. Nice to hear that we will be able to do regular flipper tricks, like alley pass, post flipp...

    Stern Pinball Arcade for Gear VR

    He said "A hypothetical reason" No reason to get all worked up about that, is it? :) Cab users are always quick to go into defensive mode, long before there is anything to get all worked up about. Believe me I know. I am one of them :D And yes, mpad. I do own real machines also ;) BTW: PC...

    Now that we're up to season 6, what would be your top Ten pins to be added to TPA...

    This is such a great explanation of how licenses work that it should be copy and pasted in every time someone asks why an old movie or a non popular franchise is expensive Very well put Slam. Great write-up. Both Thumbs up

    Now that we're up to season 6, what would be your top Ten pins to be added to TPA...

    If this season was over right now, there is easily at least enough material left to safely guide us through season 10. I have included licenses for the Bally/Will games but left out the only one we are absolutely sure is impossible - Indiana Jones I have not included Data East, Stern or Sega...

    Why Isn't Farsight Giving Us System 11s Over Premiere?

    I totally agree with the original poster. Give us some System 11 love, Farsight. There is a whole season of great system 11's....at least

    Bally Midway manufacturing company 1983 -1988 have 0 tables in TPA

    Thanks for all your comments. So, nobody likes Eight Ball Champ? It looks a bit like the ugly step child of EBD(theme) and Fathom,(upper left side) but I still find it a little interesting (without having played it, mind you) Maybe it is because it has some aspects that remind me of the golden...
