Notable quotes

Do gators have peni? I don't know, I mean I'm assuming something comes out.
Zach Manning
You straddle it and you have to put a noose around its neck... It sounds like a great night between me and your mom.
Zach Manning
The number one thing I've said it before, viewer, I don't think it's so much the license of Sonic. I really don't... They want the Sega Genesis series of games. That's what they want.
Zach Manning
See Godzilla. Everybody was angry... This is a shitty move, Stern. And now nobody says a word because it's one of the greatest games ever made.
Greg Bone
Too often, the very challenging and difficult business of pinball still attracts those who bite off more than they can chew... But the upside to some of going through the long haul with these long shots is everything.
Craig Bobby (news segment)
It's a good thing that we do not have to rely on pinball for our bread and butter. Our other company that is quite busy funds all the pinball supply, manufacturing, and research and development. So really, no financial pressure at all, just fun.
Andrew McBain (Pinball Adventures, quoted by Craig Bobby)
We are hard at work increasing our production capacity to fill the Alien orders, and I am happy to say that everything points in the right direction after a difficult 2021.
Daniel (Pinball Brothers CEO, quoted by Craig Bobby)
Con Air could be one of the greatest pinball machine themes ever.
Zach Manning
Con Air is just pure action... when you take something like Guns N' Roses and you just take that feeling of non-stop hard-coreness.
