AtGames reveals Taito Pinball tables by Magic Pixel; hosts analyze layouts and critique flat visuals vs licensing pricing.

BlahCade hosts discuss Arcuda's Twitter campaign alleging IP theft and copyright infringement by Asian competitors, then pivot to analyzing AtGames' newly announced Taito Pinball pack featuring four games (Darius, Frontline, Rastan Saga, Space Invaders) developed by Magic Pixel. The hosts examine playfield layouts, art style, and critique the relatively flat visual presentation compared to Farsight's improved Genie rendering. Pricing is set at $25 per pack (4 tables) launching July 4th, with three packs totaling 12 games planned.

From the creator

this podcast, we can officially say that Farsight Studios is no longer in the pinball business. It turns out that AtGames did not contract Farsight Studios to produce the announced Taito pinball tables last year.The good news is that Magic Pixel got the gig to produce the licensed properties from Taito. We had to give our reaction to the news and detail what we thought about the playfield layouts and overall graphical design of the tables.
