Would be a really cool thing but I am not sure it would be in the best interest of CGC. I think right now 90's titles are hot and they should strike while they will have the least resistance sales wise. Yes Alien would sell well and I would love to see it made more reliably. I just don't think the numbers will add up to the same margins as TOTAN, CC, TOM, CV, BBB and some others.

Now if you said there were 250 @ 12.5k then I could see how they could contract manufacture and make it all work.

One thing that I think people are not thinking of is the induction switches vs microswitches. This is a considerable difference in how the game plays to me. Also the cabinet does give the game a different feel to me of how the game plays. The location of the actual flipper buttons is slightly different which does cause a different overall feel. Couple that with the difference in how the lock down bar is implemented and you most certainly have a difference in the feel of the game even if the geometry is exact.

Now I am not stating that is good or bad but simply a difference in feel. I may actually like alien better in a Williams style cabinet.
