Stern Music tables, would you buy and at what price?

[9u1d0]

Hi,

I would love to see any of the music tables Stern made over the last decade coming to TPA, like Metallica, AC/DC, Elvis, Rolling Stones.
Since there are songs of the bands involved there might be the need of a kickstarter or a higher selling price.

I think the current price x2 would be fine with me for such re-creations. So on IOS that would be around 9,99 EUR.
Would you buy it? And at what price?

$10 U.S. or less and I buy immediately. More than that and I have to think about it.

10 dollar, no problem. It would be cool if they tried it that way, to see how many they would sell but it is a big gamble for them. They would have to sell more than half of the usual sales. Not a given.

It seems like Farsight would have already looked into one of these pins. If they have I would love to know how much cash it would take. Ten to twenty dollars would be good.

Yeah I'd say $10-15 for AC/DC or Metallica would be fine for me. AC/DC also has like 5 different versions of that table. Would want at least the LE and Luci versions. Would be fine paying the $10-15 separately for both. The Pro LED would probably be neat too as it doesn't have the bottom playfield. Metallica just need the Premium edition.

Would think Elvis would be possible in a regular season but would be ok with paying up to $10 for it. Its a fun table and would be nice to have an actual music pin.

Rolling Stones isn't that great of a table but would still like to have it. Would be reluctant to go above $10 but would probably anyways if offered.

I'd be fine @ $10 a table.

$25 for AC/DC or Metallica.
$9 for KISS.
$7 for Elvis.
$3 for Rolling Stones.

More if the sound quality of the songs is very good.
More for KISS if it has Tears Are Falling or Heaven's on Fire or Lick It Up.
More for Metallica if it has One or Jump in the Fire.
More for Rolling Stones if it has any number of all-time best-ever songs that weren't hits.
Most of the price is because I've never played any of these except Elvis (which I liked a fair bit).
I might pay >$25 for WMS tables I've barely played, like I500 or JMnemonic.

It's not gonna happen though... maybe when TPA3 drops, in 25 years.

1960 zimbabwean $ Dollar for Metallica or Elvis - No Problem!

 

[Kolchak357]

The newer Rolling Stones pin isn't all that good (being kind) but I'd still pay a premium for it. I love the Stones and their music, but that one ramp is soooo easy to hit. And can you think of a worse play field toy than Mick on a stick? Makes me laugh when I play it.

More than once we've heard from Stern that they want to release digital versions of their tables alongside with the physical one. I think that's going to come at some point. Whether Farsight is the developer or not? I don't know.

Metallica, AC/DC and KISS - $10-20 no problem especially for the PS4 version.
Elvis - maybe $10
Rolling Stones - eh, keep it.

 

[EldarOfSuburbia]

I'd be okay with $10 for any modern Sterns, not just the "music" ones. $10 for Star Trek, Walking Dead? Why not?

$10 would probably not happen though - I'm thinking $15 would be a sweeter spot for whoever did them, not necessarily for the consumer mind.

 

[Dutch Pinball ball]

Ac dc premium? Yes please!

I go to 50 euro for that 1.

 

[Dedpop]

$10 to $20 for any of them.
I can go to $30 for Elvis and AC/DC...

 

[9u1d0]

I'd be okay with $10 for any modern Sterns, not just the "music" ones. $10 for Star Trek, Walking Dead? Why not?

True, those machines are hard to find over here. Played Stern's Indiana Jones some months ago. Was in bad shape, so I did not play very long though.

 

[Kaibun]

$10 is a bit too much with the current dollar exchange rates. $7 is good enough for me, the Kickstarter price.

 

[Quint2525]

$10 is a fair price but if they had to, I'd cough up $15 for most of the new Sterns and/or JJs

 

[rehtroboi40]

I'd gladly pay $10-$15 for the latest music Sterns.

I'd pay $50 easy for Guns-N-Freakin' Roses! (I know that will never happen for TPA, BTW)

But with the exception of "kickstarter" tables, FarSight rightly has tried to keep prices low to make pinball affordable for more people, or so players can afford tables more easily on multiple platforms.

Cross-buy is understandably a hot topic, so I think I'll just leave it at that.

 

[Baltimore Jones]

I'd pay $20 for GnR just because I have a nostalgic attachment to it (July of 1995...). Maybe more if it came down to it.

Eh if you came to me right now and said "you can buy GnR for Pinball Arcade and this is your last chance, expires forever tomorrow" I guess I'd go up to at least $50 but might regret it.

I would very much dislike any music tables. I don't feel like listening to the same songs over and over and over again. Unless you can turn off the songs, then it would be acceptable. But never mind the music tables...let's hear it for the two best new tables around, Star Trek and The Walking Dead!!!
