Plus competition is good. We don’t want Zen to become the Madden of pinball. History has shown us again and again how a game studio can become stale and complacent when they have no one to keep them on their toes. Not saying that would happen here, but you never know.

My point exactly, Jeff.

That's a good analogy.
I lost count how many times I've re-bought Star Wars, Blade Runner, 2001 etc. etc.
I just hope my wallet forgives me for the pounding it gets!

Yes, they still have Stern. They are about to release two Stern tables this week. They are actively working on a revamped version of Stern Pinball Arcade including a VR version.

Possibly. Stern IS still named on their website, at the bottom, in the licensing info.

Stern Pinball Arcade website is still up, so I don't really think there's anything to worry about: http://www.sternpinballarcade.com/

Believe it, when I see it. Should have been there 2 years ago. I am ok with delays, but 2 years are a bit harsh.

Well I saw it with my own eyes when I visited FarSight in June.

Of course you did. But this doesnt mean it is going to be released soon. I got the feeling the Rift is outdated, when Farsight drops SPA VR.

A bit of wild speculation:
While the machines shown in the trailer can be taken with a grain of salt, since many are shown at the Budapest Pinball Museum and the rest have presumably been at Zen Studios for a while (hey syt, ever been to Zen in Hungary to confirm this?
), I find the scene with the stacking game manuals interesting. They purposefully made the decision to include those.
Perhaps it was their way of giving us a look at what games are next in the pipeline without officially announcing them. Attack from Mars, Black Rose, White Water, Theatre of Magic, Cirqus Voltaire and Tales of the Arabian Nights.
Or maybe they just grabbed a random stack and thought it'd look cool.

The manual stack was I think a huge easter egg. The machines in the office are quite good hints too. The one that drove me mad though was having Zsolt leaning up against an NBA Fastbreak at the Budapest Museum. If only that was in the office!!
And no, I have never been to any part of Europe, but our sometime podcaster Sven (aka Xanija) lives in Germany and is very interested in going. So we'll get a report from there one way or another.
btw...we told the guys from Zen that people would comb through that video for any hint they could, and then we did it ourselves. Thing is, we don't know the kind of mind games Zen likes to play, unlike FarSight.

Neat, I completely glossed over the fact he was leaning on a Fastbreak. Zen tournaments with Fastbreak would be amazing.
My favorite museum bit was when they showed the EM wall. A man can dream that it was meant to be a hint, even if only for the distant future.

Well one things for sure, the ball would actually behave and move at speeds appropriate for an EM.

I would think that May/June 2019 would be great release window for Fastbreak, right around NBA Playoffs/Finals time.
