"You know I always felt TMNT was one of Stern's most beautiful world on their glass games. It's a weird game to me like you know like I feel like for some reason again just like yet he's art on it isn't as like crisp you know it's like the way Stern printed it. It's not his art that's the issue it's like the way they printed that game. It's not as like vibrant as I want it. You know look the only thing that ruined TMNT is the left outlane is so so brutal the game's too hard. I think it's not fun because it's brutal."

TMNT is beautiful but too difficult with brutal left outlane

"to design a pinball machine in modern times in which so many of them are going into people's homes and to take away the ability to make that game any easier for people I think is idiotic it is idiotic"

Ninja Turtles' non-adjustable left outlane is an idiotic design choice

"I still think if you ask me, it should have had the 80s cartoon in it. I think this is Stern's new approach to go cheap on everything you like."

Ninja Turtles should have used original 80s cartoon content instead of new animation

"There was a line in the pinball machine directly from the show where Raphael says oh their the mutation didn't raise their IQ... It's it's not Rob Paulson with that sarcastic Raphael voice that I know"

Lack of original voice actors hurts the game's nostalgic appeal for fans

"if I had to choose between Rick and Morty Guns N' Roses and ninja turtles, Ninja turtles is at the bottom of that list and Guns N' Roses is at the top of that list"

Ninja Turtles theme not personally appealing compared to other recent Stern games

"These are not individual drop targets that you spell out April or layer. It's one big bank target, just like the monsters. And we know people did not like that in the monster. So I think this is going to be bad news for people"

TMNT will have bank targets instead of individual drop targets, which will disappoint players

"I think people are on the fence with Ninja Turtles as it is. I think there's fans who feel the nostalgia and I think there are people out there who could care less about Ninja Turtles. So I am curious to see how quickly these games sell and if the LE's like sell out right away and I'm not sure it's going to create that kind of frenzy"

TMNT theme is polarizing and may not generate massive sales frenzy

"I don't think a lot of grown men are clamoring to get a Ninja Turtles game... I just think the pinball buying demographic is more in tune with Rick and Morty just because of the adult nature of it, then they are with Ninja Turtles."

Ninja Turtles theme is too juvenile for adult pinball demographic

"I'm fully confident that Stern and Zombie Yeti and John Borg are going to create a colorful Ninja Turtles world that is going to pop in a way that I don't think any recent Stern has popped. I'm hearing that Zombie Yeti has put his best art package ever into this game."

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles will be a visual and thematic hit for Stern

"I've universally heard from people that I know that the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles game is the one that this is not the one. That stranger things is not the big game coming from Stern that's going to showcase what this company can do."

Ninja Turtles will be the real showcase game from Stern, not Stranger Things
