I get a purple eggplant thinking about a NIB High Speed, Pinbot, Taxi, Sorcerer, Space Station, etc.
Anyone else think it would be cool to have a fleet of the magical 80’s jams?
If I post about it on Pinside enough will it happen?
CGC bangs out a $6K AFM & MB which is so awesome. Perhaps they can crank out a $5K 80’s gem. Wishful thinking, make it so.
Tell me you agree when the Bobs are looking
I think games are priced at what they sell for
I think BOM is to determine margin between cost of business vs market value
MMR classic is what $2K+ more than both AFM & MB?
Odds are there's some "market" in that price difference. Sure, BOM isn't identical but $2K delta is a lot.
I'm sure I sound like a contrarian internet know it all & probably projected the $5K price because thats the max I'd pay.
But I do think CGC could make classics for a good price & sell quite a few.
I would F'n LOVE to have a room of pristine NIB 80's classics!
Quoted from chuckwurt:But they aren’t going to do it. They are going to keep making games that will sell for the 6k plus price point. Best ones to pick are the games that are currently selling for that amount or more used.
True. But if we argue enough on Pinside maybe I can will it into existence.
What's the next CGC rumored to be? Have you heard anything?
Quoted from CrazyLevi:Fail to see why you think production costs would be 2-4K lower for one of these games than one of the 90s classics they remade. This model only works if you think people will lay out 6500 (or more, since there would doubtless be additional R/D costs to repro a different cab and whatever else is required to make a new early system 11 game) for a high speed.
Swore I said $1K less not $4K less
I said $5K would be cool I thought. Right?
Cold crab rangoon is better at 3 am when I'm in my underwear with the fridge door open.
Tell me I'm wrong
