Kineticist’s take
LKPP discusses Museum of Pinball auction results, Stern's internet connectivity feature, and Godzilla pinball announcement.
Synopsis
Josh Roop and Scott Larson discuss the recent Museum of Pinball auction (which raised approximately $3.5-4 million), Stern's new internet connectivity feature for pinball machines, and Stern's official announcement of Godzilla pinball (designed by Keith Elwin). They also address the hiatus of This Week in Pinball podcast due to regulatory and sponsorship disclosure issues involving Deep Root Games and SEC investigations into Robert Mueller. Both hosts emphasize the importance of Stern's connectivity system for operator diagnostics and competitive legitimacy, and express excitement about Godzilla despite criticism of the reveal trailer's limited gameplay footage.
