Beetlejuice is a massive win for Spooky Pinball, no debate there. But what does that success mean for the rest of the hobby? Are we now expecting more from every manufacturer, including the market leader, Stern Pinball? And the big question… does Stern even care?

In this episode, we dive into the ripple effect Beetlejuice is having across pinball.
Is Stern better off staying the course, or are boutique manufacturers proving that players want more value, more innovation, and more personality in every game?
Does this shift the landscape, or is it just noise in the bigger picture?

I don’t have all the answers but we’re going to talk about all of it on this episode, and trust me… it’s going to get interesting.
