I like both of the previous two so will be good to see. Makes a nice change from Rock Bands and Super Heroes as the usual flavour.

LOL, yeah sorry, was still reading about the farce of dutch pinball!

I've not got a prob with either of the Elvira games but they are narrowing the market. Elvira is a yank thing she did nothing and had no impact in the uk

EAPTM and SS both did very well in the UK for ops. Elvira in particular did far better than its sister game BK2K which was too hard for casual players. When i first saw EATPM I presumed it was an original theme following on from Dr Dude until Gary Flower sort of explained who Elvira was. Party monsters was Williams first licensed game since World Cup so they were taking a big risk at the time.

The existing games are both great but enough already.

Nordman ...Elvira....

Unless its a complete fail ...unlikely ...they will sell a ton of these.

I tend to agree @Sgt GrizZ

I am no fan of Elvira the TV show.

But speaking as a SS owner, it is a fantastic game. Simple, crazy fun that puts a smile on your face. Kids love the theme. Adults love the innuendos.

I think that the best feature of SS is actually the call outs. Elvira and the other fella really speak with gusto - which is rare in pinball. It is a bit like the Afdams Family, a game that also benefits from superb call outs
