To this point, the same has never gone for pinball. I'm not aware of a pinball machine ever being re-run or re-manufactured and then being sold at a lesser price than the model before it. For video game consoles and electronics in general, buyers have always realized that they would have to pay more if they wanted to be first to have the latest and greatest. After the initial hype of the new tech, prices for that same tech would go down. If you weren't in a hurry, you could just wait and buy it cheaper later. I'm not saying that CGC can't change the historical rules, but there is a much smaller pool of buyers for new pinball machines than electronics in general. If they lower the price on one game to sell more, people will catch on quickly, because they will do it on the next game too. They will have to decide if some additional sales of mmr at a lower price will outweigh the new group of people who will now wait to buy their new products until the price drops come. That's my view on it anyway.
