When are we going to get another Stern table?

[Captain B. Zarre]

I know that the tables are licensed and whatnot, but why do we have RBioN and HD but nothing else? I would really want to see one of their great early 2000s tables like Monopoly, TSPP, or, heck, even the unlicensed ones like High Roller Casino or Sharkey's Shootout? I guess we can wait for July, though...

 

[Jeff Strong]

I'll be asking Bobby this question in my interview tomorrow.

 

[canuck]

Monopoly would be sweet!

What's happening in July?

 

[xNiCeGuYx]

Bring them FS!
Rbion is one of my favorites.

 

[Captain B. Zarre]

I'm waiting for the new table in July. Champion Pub is in the May pack, and Centaur is in the June pack; I don't think FarSight has any new Sterns in their inventory.

When did they announce Champion Pub? I always seem to miss these sorts of announcements...

They didn't. It is unfounded speculation.

 

[Bowflex]

I should add that the table has shown up in a picture in Farsight's office. It has a rather distinct pattern on the box of it so you could almost 100% say it is on property. When or IF it will be made has not been announced though.

 

[Captain B. Zarre]

Wasn't Champion Pub one of the blurred-out pinball machines in the FarSight Studios visit?

Yes

Metallica pin - simultaneous TPA release.

Well, let me dream...

 

[Jutter]

The old Data East and Sega machines also fall under the Stern license, no?

 

[Captain B. Zarre]

Yes, they do. Sadly, FarSight does not have any DE / Sega pinballs in their collection, which is a disappointment; I really want to see how they do with something like Maverick, Time Machine, Twister and, of course, Tales From the Crypt.

 

[karl]

If they decide to do a data east or sega, they can always get a machine in no time. Farsight buys machines all the time so that should not be a big concern. movie Licenses is a much bigger concern when it comes to those(except time machine. A fun machine I actually played last night).
If the only way to get any Stern/DE/Sega titles is kickstarter, I would much rather have, Lord Of The Rings, Simpsons Pinball Party or Tron than the old DE/Sega titles.
The few old ones without any outside license should be no problem, but I guess we will know more after the interview tonight.

Stern had quite a few good ones from the late 70' to early 80' also and I am hoping to see some of them sooner or later in TPA. So much pinball, so little time

Other than Time Machine, are there any other good DE/Sega pins that aren't licensed?

 

[Captain B. Zarre]

The only one I can think of that fits is Data East's 1988 "Torpedo Alley", released just after Time Machine; only 1000 were made.

Don't forget people that Farsight have yet to emulate Sterns S.A.M. system ( unless I missed that! ) so don't expect anything much newer than RBION. So no TRON

Thats ok, most of Sterns better pins are pre S.A.M. But yes...sucks that we wont see Tron
