A couple of years ago JJP could be mentioned along with Stern like that, but times have changed. Stern is selling NIB like gangbusters still and the secondary market is cooling to less than NIB costs finally. JJP on the other hand appears to be way behind Scooby Doo in NIB sales right now with Godfather. So that would make JJP a distant number 4 right now considering CGC and Spooky behind Stern. JJP prices on the secondary market are plummeting which makes waiting for a game much more attractive than NIB these days. JJP better be decreasing production already is the point or we could see close-outs like Williams had to do back in the 90s with CV.

Haha, I never for a moment doubted that you had problems with a SPIKE game because you are obviously butt hurt. Your case is what is called anecdotal data. I can also give anecdotal data when I say that I have honestly had 11 SPIKE and SPIKE 2 games come into my collection and never had a single issue with anything related to SPIKE or node boards. I had many issues with SAM games over the years. When you include my local circle of friends that makes dozens of games with no SPIKE issues.

I gave you a thumbs down for the simple reason that you constantly spread hatred for something that you obviously know nothing about. As an electronics engineer for the last 35 years who has repaired more items in the last week than the average person repairs in a lifetime, I have a particular set of skills that would make me a nightmare for someone like you to have an honest debate on this issue. But don't worry, its not worth my energy.

I don't know. What I do know is that the data is not standard Ethernet. Somehow I doubt it's encrypted, but either way you would need to know the protocol to hack into it.
