Portal Production has been steady since the last update. Batch 4 of game kits is well underway, and remaining batch 2 machine customers should hear from us within the next week or so.
We also recently released a Portal code update with new configuration options, multiball and jackpot enhancements, updated item and bonus scoring and a number of bug fixes. So be sure to update your game software to version 1.2.3.0 and your module driver to 1.0.3.4 if you haven’t yet. Here’s a video of Kevin Manne showing off the new code:
This past weekend, pinball enthusiasts in Switzerland got to experience a P3 with Portal Extended, along with Final Resistance, at the Swiss Pinball Expo. Thanks to Nicolas from Pinball Duality for sharing his machine! You can see some photos from the event here: https://www.facebook.com/share/p/19zFr4AxtP/
With the Texas Pinball Festival only a few weeks away, we’re receiving an increasing number of inquiries about our next title. Although we launched games before TPF the last few years, the timing was purely dictated by the games being ready to show off. We have some truly incredible things in progress, but they’re not yet ready to reveal. So this year at TPF, we’ll enjoy a more casual environment with a large lineup of existing P3 games. Come by and see why the P3 continues to provide the best value in the pinball industry, and chat with me or one of our many team members about how and why we’re the only company in the industry focused on providing more value for machines you already own.
As I say every year around this time, if you’ve been considering a P3, now’s the best time to order. New game releases always bring in a lot of day 1 (even minute 1) orders, resulting in large build queues that typically extend over 12 months. The best way to be at the front of the machine queue or to maybe even have and enjoy your new P3 before our next game launch is to order now from your favorite authorized Multimorphic distributor or directly at https://www.multimorphic.com.
For those attending TPF, we’re happy to bring pre-ordered sheets of PinGlass+, our brand of anti-reflective pinball glass and, as we always strive to achieve, the best value in the market! Place your orders at https://pinglass.net, choose Local Pickup in the shipping options, and put “Pickup at TPF” into the order notes. Please order prior to March 16th to ensure we have time to pack it up and load it onto the truck.
Thanks again to all of you for your support! I leave you with this highlight reel of The Princess Bride on the P3 from The Texas Pinball Championships, where our own Colin MacAlpine earned the title of state champ:
