Pinball Magazine & Pinball News PINcast November 2024 recap
1 hr 57 min listenBy Martin Ayub, Jonathan Joosten
TL;DR
Spooky announces Evil Dead; JJP unveils Pinball XP redemption system launching Q1 2025.
It’s the final show of 2024 and Jonathan from Pinball Magazine and Martin from Pinball News have a lot of exciting news to bring you from the right across the pinball world throughout November in the latest edition of their Pinball Industry News PINcast. There’s a new game launch as Spooky Pinball announce their latest title, Evil Dead, which boasts assets from both the first two movies as well as custom speech from the lead actor, all crammed into a widebody, multi-mech, richly-artworked cabinet. If the prospect of getting one of the 888 Collector’s Edition machines not enough to rattle your chains, you can also get a striking animated topper. After dipping their toe in the redemption pool ten years ago, Jersey Jack Pinball have made a big splash with their new Pinball XP redemption pinball system for larger family entertainment centres (FECs). It’s an impressive-looking showcase for JJP’s games and an excellent way to boost your redemption card’s value while having fun playing pinball. To find out more, Jonathan and Martin call up Jersey Jack himself, Jack Guarnieri, who is in Australia for the Melbourne Pinball Expo from where he explains how Pinball XP works and what those at the company are hoping to achieve with it. November means Black Friday and Cyber Monday, and this year there were loads of exciting deals on entire games, pinball parts and company merchandise. American Pinball had the greatest discounts with up to $3,000 off their top-end titles. There were plenty of savings on other models too, swiftly followed by 30% off parts and merchandise. Jersey Jack Pinball were in on the Black Friday fun too, with $1,000 off some of their titles, while Hexa Pinball in France took €500 off both models of their Space Hunt game. Hexa Pinball also announced a significant investment in their company from a very different games company. Who are they and what might that mean for future sales and future titles?
