Texas Pinball Festival

"But remember when we did the show in January, Chicago gaming company was supposed to be at Texas pinball Festival with Monster Bash. How wrong I was. Everybody was off on this one because they were so delayed."

"But I'm going to do this in my prediction show. I think something's going to happen at TPF. I'll explain more when we get to my 2019 prediction show but there we were once again correct on another manufacturer."

Prediction: Something significant will happen at Texas Pinball Festival.

"And I think there was a lot of excitement when he pulled the curtain off the game. I think the reveal itself was very lukewarm."

"It was supposed to be at Texas pinball Festival in March in 2018 and they announced they weren't going to be there. We waited and waited and waited and waited and then finally they just put up a Facebook announcement sometime in the summer being like, you guessed it."

"Again, we're going back in time. We're going back to March of 2018 and Charlie revealed this game at T.P.F. and I have to say, it was a little bit of like a mixed bag reveal."

"you don't go to a show you don't go to TPF like you actually do drops online directly to your community and like you incent folks to join that community to kind of hear the latest and greatest"

"here's the rumor they're going to reveal their next game at TPF okay I will bet you right now everyone who listens to this show if Jack reveals the next game at TPF that game is not going to ship to customers before fall at the earliest right"

"let's talk about their marketing strategy so is there anything as we think about the way Jersey Jack markets their games to people that they should they should change or they could do better like what are your thoughts on how Jersey Jack like markets games to the world yeah well I think if they sort of come to terms with we are a high end collectible direct to consumer company like if they come to terms with that and sort of own that then it would make sense for the marketing strategy to really be focused on you know direct to consumer so basically very heavy investment in social heavy investment in the community you know in that model you release you know new releases to your community first right you don't go to a show you don't go to TPF like you actually do drops online directly to your community"

"yeah like cool check you were you were the man at TPF cool nine months ago where's your game still not out yeah I don't know why yeah I don't know why anyone releases a chose at all like it doesn't make any sense"

"they didn't release anything at TPF what they utilize the shows for and they're smart it's better to have your game already on the line shipping the people and then when the show comes then you bring Eddie Munster up there with his Munster's cars and you sign translates"

"I mean they didn't they didn't release it expo they didn't release anything at TPF what they utilize the shows for and they're smart it's better to have your game already on the line shipping the people"

"We saw it at Texas pinball Festival. The game looks like an exact replication of Kingpin from yesterday years."

"I think most of us were really looking forward to seeing what deeproot was all about All the hyperbole, all the adjectives, all the expectations The five days of deeproot coming at T-P-F 2019"

"And I think most of us were really looking forward to seeing what deeproot was all about All the hyperbole, all the adjectives, all the expectations The five days of deeproot coming at T-P-F 2019 I mean there were ads for it at T-P-F 2018 There were ads for it at Expo And now nothing"

"deeproot polling out of T-P-F is a bummer I mean there's no way around it I've been saying This is going to be the best T-P-F ever"

"I definitely think we're going to see this game before TPF. But the big news that happened Was deeproot pinball Announced that they will not Be going to Texas pinball festival"

"I mean there were ads for it at T-P-F 2018 There were ads for it at Expo And now nothing"

"you can't go to TPF with the game or with some mechanisms and with some examples to put your company on the map and the shit don't work. Lots of pressure for them to deliver on that promise but they were the ones telling us get ready."

"I'm scared that deeproot doesn't realize how few months are left between now and TPF. Um, I'm just scared that they said too much."

"I'm scared that deeproot doesn't realize how few months are left between now and TPF Um, I'm just scared that they said too much. I am I mean I'm really cheering for these guys to deliver what they said they're gonna deliver"

"They would look like it would be like a bodybuilding competition when we went to you know TPF or xbo"

"I keep telling people it's just going to be the best TPF ever"

"I was looking at pirates of the Caribbean but it might take a while to get delivered all right Scott so here's the deal I know we talked a lot about deeproot on the last podcast and I think it's way too early to say something like deeproot is a well run challenger and I've got a lot of people have responded to the deeproot seminar after my last podcast"

"TPF and March We're going to have some amazing things So I think each one of the designers Has put a lot of effort Without any thought to cost"

"Robert was saying like they you know in the interview like they've got a countdown clock That's counting down to TPF that they need to get everything ready by And so if we've learned one thing in this hobby Is that deadlines and countdown clocks and pressure Rarely do those things lead to things getting finished on time"

"What are we supposed to Expect now at TPF Now one of the things in marketing That you always have to be careful of It's you have to be careful of managing The expectations of the consumer"

"Charlie showed this game all the way back at Texas Pinball Festival was the reveal of it And people thought it would ship sooner, same thing with pirates, all right"

"Charlie showed this game all the way back at Texas Pinball Festival was the reveal of it. And people thought it would ship sooner, same thing with pirates, all right."

"Let me tell you something if you think Willy Wonka is gonna be shown at expo Please sit down Look in the mirror and say you sir are a fucking idiot."

"I think pinball expo as a show sucks. I just do I've been doing it a couple times and compared to other shows It's total garbage"

"I think launching a game there is idiotic. I think it makes no sense You can as I said like a good video on the internet Will attract more people than anything out of show like that"

"I can't even imagine Willy Wonka being shown at TPF because of how delayed Pirates the Caribbean was remember pirate the Caribbean was supposed to be a q One title for Jack."

"TPF, the five days of deeproot are going to come up faster than you think. But I know a little stuff might be shown at Expo. But then if I were Robert and I was him, I would stay secret."

"They were really hoping to show this game at TPF and have games shipping by now"

"I think they kind of fucked up their release window. They were really hoping to show this game at TPF and have games shipping by now"

"I mean the same thing with spooky like why did Charlie show it at TPF Like he sees the way you do it He didn't need the money because he's got t and a on the line And it's just a head scratcher the way these companies Just don't get it like show your product when it's ready like don't show it early like there's there's no benefit To doing that unless you really need the money"

"I want to come to TPF and I want to see all of you guys Freakin jacked and shredded."

"it's crazy all these games are coming out in like summer which is you know a lot of these games were supposed to come out more around TPF and I think we've had a wait"

"But then we found the company we announced Lexi light speed in the p3 and started taking pre-orders in TPF 2013 And we shipped a game in September or no it was September or October of 2016"

"Yeah, gosh, I think it was a lot longer than that it was probably a year ago because we didn't chat months before TPF Yeah, so Let's take it back like You were at TPF and I know that I think it was around 60 days ago I saw the communication from Multimorphic about the pinball evolution"

"Look, I think this delay is is pretty interesting because it they were supposed to reveal this game back in February At Texas pinball festival and since then it's been nothing but crickets"

"He keeps saying there's going to be at least three games Completed by Texas pinball festival, but he also says maybe sooner all right"

"And he put on an incredible display at TPS with basically, you know, X number of games, each one showing the different titles that they offer in the different, you know, versions."

"It's definitely coming soon, you know, after TPF, you don't have to tell me, but you know what the title is?"

"So moving on, we talked a little bit about Chicago gaming and they obviously didn't bring their new title to TPF this year. And you're saying that we might get that title announced in the end of May."

"I'll never forget the cab ride I shared with George Gomez. It was Texas Pinball Festival and 2016. We were sharing a taxi to the airport and we were talking Pinball."

"when George Gomez got up there at Texas pinball Festival and he shared the story of what went into the making of Guardians of the Galaxy. I thought it was incredible."

"Which means to me that they're not going to get magic girl done by Texas pinball festival 2019 Which leads me to believe that all of the zidware games that are subsequent to follow Will also Not be ready in time that raza won't be there that Alice in wonderland"

"Like I think everyone's lucky that maiden didn't get unveiled at Texas pinball festival because I think it would have definitely put a damper On everyone else's ability to create hype from the show."

"But here it is Stern has an absolute hit could you imagine if they did show iron maiden at Texas pinball festival Nobody would be talking about Alice Cooper"
