TOM really? That game has always been easy to get in good condition for a fair price. But if that is indeed the plan for March, I'm calling it now that they step it up to 2 releases a year starting in 2018. They will probably have to at some point, and I assume they are getting their line dialed in. Makes sense to crank these out as fast as they can. All speculation though.

Some people prefer old, some people prefer new. Determining which is better at this point is more of an emotional and personal decision. It will take a number of years after AFMr stops production to see if there is a majority consensus one way or the other. Likely one version will exceed the other in cash value. Only time will tell.

Quoted from knockerlover:

True time will tell. What will you do when this fails?

The community has been amazingly resourceful for getting unobtainable parts made. If there is demand, it will get done. I don't have any doubts.

Quoted from arcademojo:

Year 2000. Everyone said the exact same thing about WPC95 games. Don’t buy them because they didn’t make a lot of them. You’ll never be able to get parts. The A/V board were unattainable. Heard the same thing pretty much about every different system. If the stash of boards dry up someone will come along and make new ones. You can even look to the Gottlieb system one boards with those spider chips. Yeah they make new boards now. Another thing is just because surface mount is new to most us in the hobby there are many companies that make boards.

I can go back even further to the late 70's when machines went solid state in the first place. They had to even make 2 versions of the same game just to appease the many who took stock in a bunch of unfounded rumors that never came to fruition.
