[QUOTE="shutyertrap, post: 293209, member: 134"] That interview was done prior to FarSight knowing Zen had secured the Williams license. Zen getting it was like a knockout punch. I think it convinced FS to get out of the pinball arena and focus elsewhere. Big Buck Hunter and Whoa Nellie came months later and were hardly their best effort. A FS employee commented in this forum that old Gottliebs weren’t gonna sell and the licensed Sterns all cost too much. We all questioned whether that 7 year old game engine could even handle a modern LCD display machine, and them saying it could was all bluster it seems. I’m convinced they don’t even have the license to recreate Stern anymore, and that their ability to sell those packs they did make will be coming to an end rather soon. Just a gut feeling, based on when contracts should expire. [/QUOTE]
