Hitting the market with a very strong reveal for 'Labyrinth', BoF has captured our attention with an impressive initial offering! What do you think their next title will be? 'The Dark Crystal' would seem like a natural follow-up, but I wouldn't be surprised if they choose something very different. Personally, I would love to see their take on the rumored 'The Princess Bride', 'Zelda', 'Pokemon' or heck even 'Back To The Future'.

EJ Pricing seem like common sense. You take an abundant used A title game priced like Addams. Then you have costly 2023 parts, labor, and overhead to manufacture today. To basically match that price seems spot on. Anyone with AF can swap out to acquire this sweet new game. Or perhaps 2 B title games. Then you should be able to trade back to your original title in the future, costing almost nothing, just a trade or equal sale. [att=7828442,3615867 caption=""]
