Summary
DPX plans Zidware games; hosts condemn as tainted; ABBA Pinball confirmed; Chicago Gaming delays persist.
This episode covers Black Knight: Sword of Rage production restart, confirmation of ABBA Pinball Pinball with two editions ($10k-$11k), Multimorphic's summer production timeline for The Princess Bride, Chicago Gaming Company ongoing delays with Pulp Fiction, and a major controversy around DPX (Dutch Pinball sister company) acquiring rights to build unfinished Zidware games (Alice in Wonderland, Magic Girl, Raza). Hosts express strong moral objections to reviving these historically troubled projects, viewing them as exploitative of past victims. Video game segment briefly covers Mike Ybarra's controversial tipping proposal and Yuji Naka's accusatory social media return.
Pinball: We discuss Stern building more Black Knight: Sword of Rage machines, the now-revealed ABBA Pinball from Pinball Brothers, Multimorphic's production plans for The Princess Bride, and DPX filing trademarks for RAZA and Magic Girl. Video Games: We cover Twitch Mike Ybarra talking some nonsense, Yuji Naka throwing some shade, Ubisoft shutting down servers for The Crew, and the latest update on the Embracer Group.
