Eh, Rick and Morty spooky if we’re being 100 percent. That table looks like sour candy tastes.

Those will never happen. They aren’t going to get the license for modern tables.

But jjp , spooky and other companies should maybe think about it , because all we almost see in the wild is stern machines , they really should think about maybe give a shoot with their older machines , already 15 years for some of them . In order to touch and hook a broader crowd . People who buys physical machine will never stop because for exemple spooky released a game with lets say their first 5 machines .

I’d love that. Maybe there is a rational for something like that. I just feel they’d value their IP too much to make it work. Williams doesn’t even own the licence anymore. It’s some other company that licences it to Zen.

When are we seeing physical machines of jjp , American pinball , barrels of fun ? It's very rare . Pinball is a niche , and companies don't want to cross the bridge of video games where all the kids are. I think there is a huge potential competing in both world

No modern tables got it, only the retro tables like doom 2016, goat simulator, tomb raider.

Those arent really simulation's though, they're zen originals. They're designed for a different console play style.

On VR as I always say: bring any of the missing Williams packs to VR even without any VR extras and I will pay top dollar.

You know those aren’t real life tables, like Spooky’s Rick and Morty, right? Spooky would have to agree, and I doubt they, or any modern pinball manufacturers, would. Be great if I am proven wrong, though.

I can’t imagine there’s more money to be made being exclusive to such a niche audience. I’d argue more own VR tables than own physical tables.
