Stern : Star Wars Fall of the Empire
- Thread starter Silverpaolo
- Start date
Its all very odd, not saying Sterns answer isn't true, but I just typed in "Star Wars" into eBay..... 2m+ items, much of it utter tat, all with star wars branding.
So strange they would draw the line at a high end product like a pinball machine, especially as this is, what..... the 9th one?

Maybe they have had the unfortunate experience of playing the earlier 8.
They won't have stern didn't want to pay what they where asking
The trouble is, we only have one side of the story.
The question is really whether the licence is unavailable at any price. It would be interesting to see if Disney Europe would be willing to discuss a Star Wars pinball machine.

True
However Id doubt it, Disney pretty coherent, the Territory are priced and managed differently due to value, interest demand, Disney licence absolutely everything I would bet it will lbe down to cost. Stern would never admit that even to the dark lord
Perhaps because it's the first three movies the value in Europe is considerably higher. Now if it was the us saying no then there might have been a small possibility it's unavailable at any price, the us dictate the rest 
I'm wondering if something weird is happening like pinball brothers launching a European only star wars game, they do have a relationship with Disney, alien and now Predator. It's highly unlikely but it would explain it, it's not unusual for a similar product being released by different people on different territories.
That's me just being theoretical, the likelyhood is close to zero
Someone needs to make this mod
I'm not trying to sway you, but if you aren't interested in high scores you can easily ignore this feature and focus on completing modes. Sometimes I bother with them, sometimes I don't.
My Pro is only listed for sale for space reasons. It's true the Pro hasn't got a major toy, but I find it an enjoyable shooter with plenty to do, it's atmospheric and has plenty of video and sound assets from the films, and it's a top tier license.

I don't hate the game (I considered buying yours at one point!), just doesn't quite grab me I guess. And the Pro with the plastic ramps and open play field does feel a little sparse to me. There's definitely a fun game there though.
Vader says can we have the new Star Wars pinball please
Not sure how Borg can play this game with a straight face especially after Met remastered. Very meh.. next!
That’s fairly normal, the current Stern Star Wars is the same. Plus, Jurassic Park and Harry Potter.
The licence is just too much for any other tracks.
Does it have the cantina music? Feels like a must
The original doesn’t unfortunately
Borg had it in the DESW so maybe there is a chance it’s added!
No chance, music has become so expensive to licence now, that most movie games only have the main title music.
Just watched some proper game play of this. Looks incredibly dull/safe. Also, whoever suggested Anthony Daniels on call outs needs sacking
David Prowse came to our primary School back in the day as the green cross code man! Nobody knew he was Darth Vader.
Ours too. But we knew he was Darth!
It is a very safe / simple design, but when it’s a blockbuster license that’s what you want. The game is as much (or even more) for Star Wars fans as it is for pinball enthusiasts
Mine too. He signed my Star Wars annual
Please tell me you still have this?
I wish. My gran used to work at a preschool and gave loads of my old stuff away to them, including my boxed Star Wars collection.
Looks like Neil has used the force and managed to import one to the uk.
has he got it working? was going to import an LE but wasn't sure if it would work in uk with spike 3 being an unknown quantity.
I suggest you contact the deleted member for the intel and Death Star plans. He says no vpn and the power supply can run 240v
As for the other saucery you will have to ask mate
