Quoted from Grizlyrig:

Let's actually look at your scenario from a different manufacturer.
Gottlieb...Company is long gone, yet we the enthusiasts are adapting and making the parts we need for our machines.
Power supply, mpu and driver boards have all been reproduced.
Your concerns should only be what is the best price I can purchase Hot Wheels at and how much fun can I have before I rotate it out of the lineup.
-Mike

Gottlieb is a poor comparison. Alvin g is a better one. Gottlieb was around for decades and made hubdreds of thousands of games. Alvin g made it a similar amount of time to ap and made a couole thousand games.

Even then can still maintain an alvin g, but restoring one is near inpossible due to lack of game specific parts.
