If the original MM in 1997 had led's, full resolution sound and a color dmd it I would have cost $20,000 I would guess, and the start button would still not meet expectations.

OP
Quoted from Noobee:
Thanks everyone for your input. Now a follow up question. What do you think a new, out of the box, 1975 EM would go for today?

That would greatly depend on the game. If it were a 1975 pinball game out of the box and still new 40 years later, I would be weary of wormholes.

As new condition, no defects of time. Between $5,000 and $20,000 depends on who is buying it.
