I would get MMR today even though I prefer Pirates. Why? I'm tired of buying new games that go through minor hardware revisions during their first few production runs. The games we are talking about are now $8k-$9500, for that type of money I don't want to deal with fix kits and other early adopter issues. MMR's being made today are solid as they have been in production for a while. Pretty much every new game goes through at least some minor hardware revisions early on. This is one of the reasons I went with a new Dialed In today versus an early POTC. I would get a MMR today and then down the road decide if I want to keep it or sell it to get POTC.
