Stern

Yes.

So it's the latest machine by Stern Pinball, the biggest manufacturer now.

And it's a very good machine.

For us operators, it's a very good machine.

app also has the option to find pinball machines that are currently

online.

It's only Stern pinball machines.

So the app I scan the QR code with also has an app of all and those are machines only in the system or is it everything?

I like that barrels in general, just like, seems like they want to have fun.

They want to be like one of the fun, you know what I mean? Like they're not really buttoned up sort of, and I, not to like throw Stern under the bus or something, but I just think, you know, like I think Stern is more.

like that, like they're more buttoned up, they wouldn't like do a cruise or something like that.

So it's just kind of fun.

Someone else, another nerd will know this and be yelling, but you know, like his Godzilla stuff is really interesting where it's like sort of fully like lit signs and really integrated in like that kind of stuff is really cool to me where it like truly does make it the like world under glass that people want.

And yeah, Um, it's funny.

I think that Stern has really come to rely like, dude, when you talk to George Gomez or any of those people, like, especially George Gomez, he'll like talk about, he's like, you know, I think that's something that like aftermarket can make, you know? So that's really funny.

It's like, I will probably see one of these guys do the, um, transforming optimist, you know, like,

Wow.

So Bally ripping off Stern again.

Yep.

After Stern ripped Bally's entire board set off.

Yes.

I know.

So I got trivia for you.

Okay.

But yeah.

It was nice to see, you know, a good selling solid Stern again.

You know, I think people have embraced this game and I think that, you know, Stern's work on it really showed through.

So I know you lead the location program here.

You deal with all the locations, getting games out.

And we've had the conversation, too, and you had mentioned the – you know, some of the stuff that you're doing over at Patreon for Flippin' Out Pinball Podcast, where you're kind of given the inside scoop of, you know, operating games and getting games on location and things like that.

And sometimes a game, and this isn't necessarily the case with this, but sometimes a game might not be the number one earner, but it's enough of a draw to bring it in so that you have a residual effect on the other games that are sitting at your location, right? So that's, but yeah, that's good to hear.

When we were, when we went into Stern and we did the recording for the first look stuff, it's like you, you don't sit down and play the game 50 times and learn it.

Terrible.

We were invited to the media day at Stern for...

Yeah.

The brand new Cornerstone Fallout.

A lot of fun.

So that's it's not every place is going to have its own culture.

But, you know, I felt every time I've been to Stern, I felt like it's it's a very nice environment.

I feel like for every time we go to Stern, for you, it's like when I would go to Disney World.
