Total no brainer - MMR by a mile. Its super well made, had mine two years and not a single issue with it. People will yack on about the insert issue but it doesn't affect the play of the game at all. The upgraded color LCD, adjustable settings make this hard to beat.

Most MM's because of their popularity have been beaten to death; expect to have to fix/refurb stuff on an original.

Quoted from vid1900:

That's funny.
Have you seen how many issues the MMr home users have had already?
In 5 years where will you get a new MPU board if CGC goes under?
Would no replacement boards being available be considered an issue?
-
I mean, I hope the CGC stays in business forever, but much larger, better capitalized companies have gone bankrupt or live on in name only .
MontgomeryWards, Compaq, Wang, Kodak, Schwinn, CircuitCity, Bridgeport, Craftsman....

I don’t think there is that many issues. I’ve had mine for two years - it’s HUO but has been used at a tournament and I’ve had -zero- issues with it. None, nadda, zilch.

Buying pretty much any NIB Pinball today has the risk of the manufacturer going under or even worse the manufacturer that you have no relationship going bust (Proc for example). I have a faulty board on my Stern Star Trek that’s unique and a hundred bucks replacement! I doubt there are many of them around. Original sound boards for MM are impossible to find now. Pinsound works but it’s not perfect and what’s to stop them going bust?

Get the game play the fucking bejeezus out of it and life is good.

Quoted from o-din:

I miss the days when these threads were about which is the better Williams, MM or AFM.
Now it's more like what is better, an original Rolex or a fake reproduction Rolex.

what a load of tosh d00d!

Rolex and nearly every watchmaker make the same watch with new movements....

3135 is one of the legendary Rolex movements launched in 1977, more recently 3155 and the 3156 are more current launched 2008, using improved technology and to tackle things that were not as well understood like magnetic fields etc. (of course real watch folks dont buy Rolex )

Quoted from Scot0308:

Several years? Is your friend from the future? This post needs to be downvoted by anyone regardless of preference. The facts just don't add up.

huh? I've had mine for two years, they started making them in 2015...
