FWIW: spent some good time on a BBB at Flippers in North Carolina a few summers ago. Super fun playing pin. Ate up a lot of my quarters. Glad I had the opportunity to play it.

For 1.8% of the cost of this machine, you can fly out to see it in person this weekend. Add ~2% more to ship it back to NJ.

They already sold off the BBB inventory they had. And I'm glad, some games need to remain rare.

Actually, it would probably be one of the very few remakes they could still sell for 8k. At least in any real qty. I would have to think that they are at least considering it, that is if they are to still keep remaking classic pins.

Nothing is off limits that PPS has its hands in.. IIRC they borrowed an original MM to copy it, they'd probably do the same if the time came for BBB-RVELE

I'm pretty sure my 1950 Pinky is safe from being remade. At least until more people get to play it.

Nope this is a Capcom production BBB built by IPB. BBB was never remade… and never will be.

Quoted from teekee:

I don't see a remake happening either. The numbers don't support it. No way you would get the sales volume at 8K a machine to justify the production costs. You might sell a couple hundred at that price... but 1000? No way

The only reason Gene/IPB was able to produce the game at the volumes he did for the price he asked was he had all original Capcom parts already on hand. Rick will have to fund the production of those parts from scratch, and I don't see enough demand to recoup the investment

GLWS to OP. It's a fun game

No, Gene did *not* have "all original Capcom parts already on hand"; he had about 200 board sets (CPU, driver, display, switch), some amount of generic Capcom parts, and engineering drawings, and he bought a bunch of surplus BBB translates from someone (Mike Pacak?). Everything else, from cabinets to arrow driver boards to playfields to plastics to cabinet artwork was all custom manufactured for IPB to use in BBB.

And it's been said that Gene lost a significant amount of money for each Big Bang that he built.

Gene spent an additional $3K out of pocket for every IPB BBB produced to make the game. Besides being one of the coolest pins it has a place in pinball history to boot. Anyone that ever has the chance to play or buy one...do it.

As I have always said, the online aspect of the pinball hobby is nowhere near the vast majority of people in the hobby. Lots of folks never go online.

His account here is older than ours, he's just a lurker... I'm sure he's someone whose name I would probably recognize, I just don't know the name to tie to the username or know him personally. Frankly, I'd love for these "lurkers" to get out in the community more, but frankly with all the BS the last two years here locally, I can't say I can find a fault in choosing not to. To each their own.
