    Rick from Planetary Pinball a long time ago said there were 7 titles in the queue/under consideration. MMr, AFMr, MBr, CCr, TOMr it seems, CVr it seems and 1 more. I don't see 1 more viable remake on that list that was linked to make 7.

    Quoted from Onwallst:

    MMr was a home run. AFMr sold slow and MBr sold slow. They have to split profit with PPS and Williams Bally. Too many cooks in the kitchen. PPS use to supply JJP with parts as JJP was going to build the remakes. Stern built the first runs of MMr remakes. Then CGC started. You loose cabinet building for JJP and Stern you loose revenue. Stern then moved playfeild manufacturing away from CGC. CGC has a great assembly production line. You can’t have so much up and down time. You have to run all the time. The remakes don’t allow that. Plus PPS sells and delivers all parts. Another revenue line they miss out on. Your own titles you can control. You can switch between products. CC would be horrible seller. Only reason loved as few made. With cactus canyon continued added it is a great game. You aren’t going to sell 1500 copies of that game. Tom and totan more of the same. Sorry guys. CGC is making the right choice. Stern on LE’s alone sold 2000 games in 14 months. That is 10,000 le games since the launch of MMr. CGC le’s 3000. AFMr and MBr le’s you could get NIB for around 6-12 after launch. As you know LE’s aren’t the only seller it was used as a reference. Stern LE’s are sold out immediately. The last two remakes were not.

    I agree that the top 3 were the can't miss prospects, MM, AFM and MB for CGC/PPS to remake. Mainly, I think CGC was targeting machines that were uber rated and had low original run rates, like those 3, all at the end for B/W. CC was another low run rate and at the end of B/W's run as well, so it fit the mold. I would not be surprised if they re-considered doing remakes like CC and TOM as these would not sell like the top 3 even if in some cases the run rate was low. Maybe they are re-considering remakes that had high original run rates but sell well on the secondary market like IJ IPA. IJ IPA WOULD sell. It is what they should be doing next regarding remake titles, license issues and wide body not withstanding.

    Someone should remake IJ IPA, that much is crystal clear.

    Quoted from Richard-NBA-SF2:

    Neat, is cgc’s 2nd game this year a remake or an original?

    I think the prevailing wisdom is original.
