Dutch pinball doing " Back to the future ? "

[Dave Bishop]

I heard anywhere from $15-$25 per machine..
think that was on a interview with Rodger Sharp..

So $60K- $125K….
Stern paid $M for Beatles licence.. and look how long they took to sell..

Stern paid $M for Beatles licence.. and look how long they took to sell..

Isn't that because they were priced ridiculously high?

 

[Dave Bishop]

To recoup the licence fee

The price at the time was ridiculously high for what you where getting which was essentially viewed as less than a pro but the way Stern distributed the game hurt sales.

They did it like Topps card, likely because John Buscaglia had joined Stern from Topps (super nice and helpful guy btw) so for distributors to get 1 platinum, maybe it was 2 and 1 diamond they had to take something like 10 golds.

My understanding is that the licensing for BTTF has become a bit easier than when Stern were interested.

Barry told Kaneda Dutch will officially announce BTTF at this year's Expo!

Dutch are certain hitting some aces with themes at the moment..

[JustLikeMe]

Are we expecting just an announcement, or any sort of reveal?

 

[crujones4life]

Announcement first sure. Anything else would be amazing!

 

[JustLikeMe]

If they’re just announcing it would be fun if they did something similar to the original Lebowski teaser all those years ago
