Quoted from vid1900:MM is only "rare" because people want it.
There are much rarer games, that sell for much less money (Starlight (100 made), Time Fantasy (400), Algar (350), Pokerino (1000)... all compaired to MM (4000).
The new, fake MM will have no Williams logos, a tiny CPU board, built in LEDs and a host of other differences.
Hard core collectors who what the "finest" things will only accept the original in their collections.
Everyone who just wants to play pinball, will be happy with the fake ones.
However, there will only be 1000 of the new ones. They will be rarer than the originals...
Remakes will absolutely affect the value of originals.
The guy who got it worst is the buyer who stretched to buy one because he bought into the "it only goes up" talk. He figured he could cash out later for nearly what he paid.
Unfortunately, unlike houses, you can't hand the coin door keys back to the bank.
