Quoted from jimwe5t:No one invested money in MM, AFM, or the shadow, because it was only operators buying. Put any of these themes out today and they’d not sell for the home market. Yes, they’ve sold remakes, but only because of the nostalgia factor.
This is a lie. Tons of people bought MM, AFM, and Shadow for their homes - and kept them there...that's why the prices went up, which drove the creation of the remakes. They're brilliantly designed & coded games - nostalgia has nothing to do with people wanting to own them.
Quoted from jimwe5t:Fast forward, ST and Mando are flow monsters, with interesting game play and far deeper code than MM, AFM and TS. Those games don’t last in the home environment they are so shallow.
Those games have literally been bolted to the floor in countless collections. They're not shallow games. If you think these are shallow games, you've never played an actually shallow game. This is an ignorant statement at best, a lie at worst.
Every person you know hates pinball.
