Found this. Hope the details are accurate:), and that soon means soon.
okay, so Mike, anybody at FS, it's launch day (or after midnight at least), got an update for us????
...gotta wait a few days still for my "Siren" (Wii-U-Wii-U-Wii-U) to be delivered...:(
Okay, that returned some of my optimism! Here's hoping it's available pretty close to launch, and at least up to Table Pack #6 with it.
Any chance Mike, that you can tell us how it's running compared to the PS3/360 versions? Anything more really would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks, Mike. Nothing to go on, but at least someone from FS said something... even if the something was basically nothing.
Doesn't exactly breed a lot of hope that the Wii U version is something they are particularly excited about... which through extension makes it seem less likely that it...
Hey, so PS3 version has some issues, 360 versions has some issues (MS being maybe the biggest one), and the Wii U drops in about 2 weeks. Does anyone (FS, PinWiz, others in the more-well-informed-than-I-on-such) know how close to launch it's going to hit Wii U (assuming it's still coming)...
think we could get a little info update on packs #4, #5 & #6 , and the title update for Xbox 360? What's been submitted to MS? Been a couple weeks since anyone posted about/asked...
YES. And, I for one find the basic table design pretty flawed, and the table to be WAAAAAAAAYYY too highly rated on pinside and IPDB. It belongs down in the low 20's to high 40's, IMO. It can be fun from time to time, and it has a distinctive look, but most games on it are a hose-job. And I...
Xbox 360 is preferable to PS3 for TPA, IMO. Don't have an iPad, so can't say, but the iPad versions of the tables are technically inferior to the console versions. If you want the "full-fat" experience, you'll go console. Personally, if I had an iPad I'd get all the tables on it too, but when...
Gold ball. Disco ball. Jack O'Lantern. Cat's Eye Marble. LED/Neon color balls (with tracers) once they implement room lighting adjustment... they are gonna do that right? Right?
Obviously if it isn't profitable pinball won't continue to exist beyond the hobbyist level, and I'm not discrediting Lawlor, I'm just saying it's easier to comment from the sidelines, than it is to try and help save/bring back the industry. And no, pins will never be as ubiquitous as they once...
NBA, which I agree looks like it might be kinda fun, is derived from the Space Jam table they did as SEGA Pinball back in 1997. Not identical, but it's really obvious that they started with Space Jam and went form there. Not a diss on either table, as I have not played them, and they both look...
Waaaaayyyy too often when I flip the ball off the left flipper to the right ramp, in rhythm or from a ball stall, on Monster Bash I hit the outer peg on the ramp and it drains down the center. This is absolutely a "flow" machine, and I have incredible rhythm for a white guy (seriously), but it...
A few points:
1. Pat Lawlor got out in 2008. Designer's money is based at least in part on sales numbers, so while he might know of what he speaks, he probably knows of it prior to this recent uptick in interest in pinball, and he's (obviously, like anyone) more worried about his pocketbook...
I've also switched to using the bumpers as the performance from the triggers has reached the point of no longer being good enough. Might have to revisit the situation when the two-stage controls are live.
Really hope they get to tweaking on the issues I, and others, have raised (physics, slingshots, etc.), before the fantastic new series of officially announced tables (STTNG, E&TPM, SS) are released.
Awesome day for TPA fans! BOTH Elvira tables announced as the STTNG Kickstarter reaches its funding goal. So $%#@&$# sweet! Can't wait for all three (though since I'm a 360 TPAer, I'll have to). I also agree with ...I think it was Jeff Strong, that I hope Party Monsters is paired with NGG...
Do it all the time. But I will continue on if the score was weak, but I set up a lot of stuff (say made 2 or 3 shots toward all of the monsters' modes on MB).
