Last chance to get WMS tables

8 maj, 2018 @ 13:01 - Pinballwiz45b
From Farsight's Facebook page:

"Official Announcement. (WMS)

Our longstanding licenses for the Williams and Bally pinball trademarks will finally come to an end on June 30th, 2018. Therefore, after this date tables from these manufacturers will no longer be offered for sale within the Pinball Arcade. However, customers who purchased any of these tables prior to the deadline will continue to own them and have access to them within the Pinball Arcade, and we will continue to support them as we do the other tables in our collection. This change will affect all of our devices and platforms.

So if you’ve ever been interested in owning these great tables, please purchase them now, before they disappear!

FarSight will continue to release new tables for the Pinball Arcade. We are excited to announce that Season 8 will launch later this summer and will feature all of the recent Stern tables in Stern Pinball Arcade along with several new tables."

So that's what's going on with this. I know this group has been very inactive as of late, but I thought of getting this out there. If you want those seasons, don't wait until June 30th to get them, and there'll be no discounts either, because of WMS.

I bought ALL of the tables prior to their removal from the store - it was a pretty large outlay of cash for them all; at the time I couldn't afford to buy the pro versions. I'd be interested in a pro upgrade for all my tables - the tables are already licensed, I just want the additional options for the tables. I hope that in the future, some accommodation can be made for non-pro table owners- I would cheerfully pay for that.

WMS chose to end.

Keep in mind that Pinball Arcade Fans is changing to Digital Pinball Fans, so something's going on behind the scenes.

I want to know what company made this decision, so I can let them know that I won't support their future plans. Farsight has been an amazing steward of these tables, and the fact that they would torpedo you guys like this has me positively BOILING. I supported this endeavor through several Kickstarters, and it sucks that continued success is being plucked out of your hands.

That sucks, shame the season packs are so expensive to. Guess I'll miss out on em.

You can still get it from now until June 30th, at latest.

oh.. they better get new licenses because I can't afford the newer packs that I don't have within two months.

But wait. Once WMS Pinball Tables are gone, So that mean I won't be able to get Star Trek: The Next Generation? Me and my Sister are fans of Star Trek.

Yep, all Seasons will be affected, but if you purchase them now, they're yours.

So, this also affects the most recent pack? So If I want Paragon, I should buy it before July?

Good post. Sad to see them lose the license. It should interesting to see what new tables they do release later.
