TTP = "time to penis." The TTP Factor is the amount of time it will take in any given scenario involving a video camera before someone films their own penis. It's often quite short.
"We talked about putting cameras on the game so a customer could get his actual face onto a character, but the effort was more than we wanted to deal with. Plus, for any game with a camera there’s the TTP factor. Time to Penis. How long is it gonna take before somebody puts their penis on video? Any time there’s a camera on anything, that always happens."
- Sal Davita, Midway Games developer, from a Sports Illustrated oral history of the making of NBA Jam.
