Alice in Wonderland
game"he said we have received around 35 refund requests okay around is a weird thing i don't think there should be any sort of adjective in front of the number like what is the total number"
Dutch Pinball Alice refund situation and production continuation despite lack of demand
"I'm not chilling it people are loving it it's different it's beautiful it's different you know how I feel it's not a deep game it's a simple game but it's a stunning game and so that's why people bought it"
Alice's Adventures in Wonderland is a stunning but simple game, not deep
"It's not the best of anything, but it's different. And what Dutch has made is something that does feel like you're playing an occasion. It creates an occasion when you play Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, because there's just nothing else like it in the market."
Alice's Adventures in Wonderland creates a unique playing occasion despite not being the best at anything
"The phrase that's being used is not a phrase you want to hear. It feels like we're chopping wood. That you just have to hit the same shots over and over and over again."
Alice's Adventures in Wonderland has repetitive code that feels like chopping wood
"Alice is one of the most beautiful games ever and people that were there were just blown away by like just the stunning nature of the game... is it as good as the other games no is it have the code no... I think people who own it will lose like a grand to 1500 but they're not going to lose 4,000 on them."
Alice in Wonderland is beautiful but will lose some value due to limited gameplay depth
"Rarity does not equal collectibility. A beautiful art package pinball machine does not equal collectibility... From a gameplay standpoint. Yes, it's absolutely not going to stand out from a gameplay standpoint"
Alice in Wonderland won't be collectible despite rarity and art
"I still don't like the black and red. The rest of the game's colors are like blue and purple, more Alice-y, and they should have made the apron that color. The apron should like bleed into the playfield color palette"
Alice's Adventures in Wonderland apron color choices are wrong
"500 games is more supply than demand... No one feels like they missed out on Alice and that is in the phrase, the fear of missing out and there is no fear of missing out"
Alice's Adventures in Wonderland made too many games, no fear of missing out
"This is the most anane thing I've seen in a long time. No common sense... They are now positioning themselves as a company that is a solution in search of a problem because there is no problem."
Alice in Wonderland Kickstarter is completely misguided - solution in search of a problem
"You're not going to make any money on Alice. If you are buying Alice because you think it's going to be a collectible that's going to go up in price, I just don't see that happening."
Alice in Wonderland will not make money as collectible and lacks wow factor
"We know it's not as good of a game as Metallica. It's not even going to be as close to a good of a game as Metallica is"
Alice's Adventures in Wonderland won't be as good as Metallica and easier to obtain
"if you try to look at this game as being something that has gameplay that's comparable to an X-Men or a Jaws or a Theatre of Magic or a Cirqus Voltaire or a TOTAN, look, it doesn't"
Alice is beautiful but gameplay is mediocre compared to modern games
"what if Melvin just wanted to make a beautiful work of art based on a J-Pop idea that actually had a game in it that you could play, and that's it, hard stop. That's all he wanted to do. He didn't wanna make a game with deep rule sets that you'll never understand"
Dutch Pinball Alice should be evaluated as working art piece, not traditional pinball game
"Here is the thing that I think was missing the most from yesterday. There's no story that went along with it... The story of why this game exists. Did you see it anywhere? Did you hear from anybody at Dutch Pinball? Were there any interviews? Were there any discussions? Was there anything that let you in as to the reason why this game exists?"
Dutch Pinball's Alice reveal lacked narrative and proper marketing execution
"I think this game is easily sold out before we get to pinball Expo and I think there really hasn't been a game like this. I've seen come out. I think it's far superior than Raza. I do. I think it looks way better than Raza. It shoots way better than Raza. It doesn't have some stupid pinball like Raza did."
Alice's Adventures in Wonderland will be far superior to Raza and will create significant FOMO
"But I guarantee you, you're going to start to see Alice's adventures in Wonderland just a little bit before everybody else. We've got a very captive audience here."
Prediction: The audience will start to see Alice's Adventures in Wonderland just a little bit before everybody else during the PowerPoint slideshow.
"There's only going to be 500. It's got toys. It's got mechs. It's got magnets. It's got subways. It's got physical ball locks. It's got scopes. It's got a mirrored backglass. It's got a topper. And they give you all of that for less than 12,000 dollars"
Alice in Wonderland offers better value than Stern games
"Alice in Wonderland is going to be like I just saw in Jason Knapps who said $11,900. So that's awesome. You're going to get an Alice in Wonderland game where there's only 500 cheaper than these Sternleys"
Jersey Jack's Alice in Wonderland pricing at $11,900 is problematic - only $500 cheaper than Stern games
"I can just tell by looking at it is gonna shoot much better than Raza. Like I feel like deeproot spent millions of dollars and then made a game that didn't even play well."
Alice's Adventures in Wonderland will play much better than Raza despite similar origins
"I will say the one thing that takes a little bit getting used to for me is seeing a J-Pop game in a standard cabinet. It doesn't have the same pop or wow, the way that Zidware cabinet sort of just looks so unique."
Alice game loses visual impact in standard cabinet compared to original Zidware cabinet design
"Your entire marketing strategy is going to fly in the face of common sense because people don't want to support anything that comes from the world of J-Pop. The artist of Alice in Wonderland doesn't support this move."
Dutch Pinball's Alice in Wonderland faces major challenges due to J-Pop association
"So do you think Dutch pinball is gonna be able to sell 500 Alice in Wonderland games at less than $15,000... I think it's going to be an uphill battle. I think they're going to have to have somewhat of a runway to get people excited about this game."
Dutch Pinball Alice in Wonderland launch concerns - 500 units at $15k may be too many/too expensive
"So you heard it here first. I'm also going to be able to get you guys in on the super rare version of Alice in Wonderland. So, if you ever wondered why you were a club member to the super controversial Chris Coloris from Kaneda's Pinball podca"
Prediction: Kaneda will be able to offer exclusive games including super rare Alice in Wonderland to his club members.
"It is going to be made by a reputable company that is currently making games that are highly sought after. It is going to work. That is the key element here."
Alice in Wonderland pinball remake will be worth getting - a working game from reputable manufacturer
