Kineticist’s take
TPS returns with Patreon model, analyzes manufacturing crisis, ranks Big Five new games.
Synopsis
The The Pinball Show returns from a month-plus hiatus with episode 125, announcing a new three-tiered Patreon membership model (Club Member $10, Nordman Club $25, Screaming Goat Club $100) featuring exclusive content, Discord access, monthly Zoom hangouts, and insider information. The episode includes Craig Bobby's segment on the manufacturing bottleneck crisis across the industry, highlighting that Stern's production efficiency is becoming the decisive competitive advantage, while Dutch Pinball early achievers face year-nine wait times. The hosts then rank the "Big Five" recently-announced/released games: Foo Fighters (Stern), Final Resistance, Godfather (JJP), Pulp Fiction (Chicago Gaming), and Galactic Tank Force (American Pinball), with detailed analysis of design, rules, art, and gameplay.
