Will it be possible to buy the upgraded controller board separately and attach it to an older ColorDMD display?

Check your board revision number just to be sure, but if you got it in 2016 you SHOULD be ok.

Awesome!!!! Any option for just upgrading the controller board? The ColorDMD in my SM was purchased last year (2015) and I don't have another game to put it in at this time as all my other games already have one.

simple question... Does this work in SM vault or are those different dots?

I thought maybe that is what all the "twins" hints were about.

Sorry, didn't realize you were serious.

The SMVE dots are very different. All the video parts were replaced with animated bits instead, and several of the modes names & content changed. SMVE would have to be done separately.

If you have someone locally who can replace a surface mount IC, it's an easy replacement and will be more cost effective than replacing a controller board. The IC that needs to be replaced is U3 near the AUX connector. The new part number is

Cypress S25FL164K0XMFI011

These parts are available from sources like Digi-Key (http://www.digikey.com/product-detail/en/cypress-semiconductor-corp/S25FL164K0XMFI011/1274-1097-ND/4457674)

Rob Anthony (Borygard) has indicated he is able to provide this service to customers who need to upgrade a board. Please contact him for pricing.

Prob in reference to the Red/Black suits. No? Jesus dude. How in the hell would these colored dots work in the VE when those are entirely different dots?

Not everyone is a tech genius. I don't know squat about dots and I had the same question. A simple yes or no would have been sufficient.

SMVE has totally different dots. There was one in Stern's booth at TPF.

To be fair, the IM & IM VE are exactly identical. So if you haven't actually seen a SMVE, or paid any attention to the news about it - just know that a VE version of spiderman exists, it's a fair question.

Hilton is usually pretty plugged in to the news of various pinball things, so I thought he was joking.

Pro Tip for anybody putting a ColorDMD in their Original Spider-man: Try it with the contrast pushed down 2 or 3 steps. It really helps the video clips to darken the lower end brightness.

If you don't prefer it, you can always turn it back up again, but give it a chance.

I was too busy looking at and playing the other games and did not even pay attention to the SM to realize.

Oddly enough we have one on route on the westside of town and I have not even been over to play it. Sad but true.

never really liked the game much so did not really pay much attention to the VE when it came out. I may have played it at MGC (cant remember) but I never look at dots when playing I guess. I have not played old SM enough to even know the dots on it to compare.

We need to find Epthegeek a new game for his collection as it appears that his current collection is now all colorized! I did see WOF on his wishlist. WOF Continued would be pretty sweet
