    Remakes are fine and it's nice having a modern game. Some people say they feel a difference in flipper feeling between versions but I don't. It could be down to me never having an original and remake side by side, maybe difference is noticeable then. The modern games normally have improved lighting with all LEDs and such too.

    That said, I prefer the original version for two reasons a) they are proven stable and robust after 25 years of usage and b) you can actually repair/solder them if electronic breaks.

    Remakes have surface mounted components and a modern data bus to save on cabling making it hard for the average Joe to repair stuff apart from replacing whole cards.
