Quoted from John_I:I'd like to see a retro game in the mix. Fathom? EBD?
No one will spend that kind of money for those titles.

Quoted from Mr68:That said, BBB has some of the very best artwork ever on a pinball machine along with fun music and wonderful, double entendre call outs. It's the only production, adult theme game ever made that I know of and I find it fun and funny. (The theme is an outer space singles bar. Big Bang, get it?
And it has everything. Drop targets, stand up targets, ramps, habitrails, pop bumpers, captive balls. Yet doesn't seem cluttered. Well laid out.
LTG : )
Very Nice original /restored /partially restored tz, tom , ij, taf cv, totan can be found pretty regularly for 5000-7500 and the ones on the top end of thst have just about every upgrade/ mod u cld want. Id guess a,tz, taf, ij and many of tbe others wld be 8k+ starting out and le being more bc they have much much more to them than afm . Guess will c but i believe bbb, kp wld sell pretty well . That b what id b a buyer for .... id love to see some new original stuff from cgc ....
Quoted from Mr68:To make my point (and brag I suppose). I just sold my Big Bang Bar 3 or 4 weeks ago after owning it NIB since 2007. If Planetary and Chicago Gaming remake BBB for $7 or 8K, I will almost certainly become a first time customer for them.
Come on now - It seems kind of obvious that you sold now (after keeping it for 10 years) because you have that "insider information" of the remake. Sell while the price is good, and then buy the remake and keep the extra cash.
Quoted from bigd1979:Very Nice original /restored /
Quoted from bigd1979:tz, tom, taf cv, totan
Quoted from bigd1979:5000-7500
These are like unicorns, if you find one capture it for me. No seriously trying to find a nice Adams that is not beat with mansion wear is near impossible.
Quoted from bigd1979:i believe bbb, kp wld sell pretty well
I think KingPin would sell decent amounts but not sure on BBB. The adult theme may only sell so many because of a more limited potential customer base.
Quoted from GhostThruster:If they made IJ/TAF/TZ, I would buy them. I'm more interested in those three than the others that are being rumored.
I would also argue that these three titles over a 5 year period would sell 4 to 1 over all of the other mentioned titles. Just sayin
Quoted from jamieflowers:I would be in for a Kingpin. BBB is a pretty game but not that much fun IMO. CC could be great if they do CCC as an option.
I agree. Was at expo a couple of years ago and had BBB to myself for about 1.5 hours early in the morning. It was fun, but let me put it this way. It was 3k-5k fun, not 15k-20k fun IMO... I'd be interested in Kingpin
Quoted from GhostThruster:If they made IJ/TAF/TZ, I would buy them. I'm more interested in those three than the others that are being rumored.
I would buy an Indiana Jones remake!!
Quoted from GhostThruster:If they made IJ/TAF/TZ, I would buy them. I'm more interested in those three than the others that are being rumored.
I feel same way
Quoted from Mr68:Just don't remake Dirty Harry. I paid $1500 for mine and I'd hate to take the hit.
Dirty Harry just went to the top of the list.
Quoted from T7:Come on now - It seems kind of obvious that you sold now (after keeping it for 10 years) because you have that "insider information" of the remake.
I sold BBB for strategic reasons based on common sense and it has nothing to do with what you're speculating.
Because something seems obvious does not make it true. And this is one of my biggest issues concerning Pinside with all of its rumors and misinformation. These sorts of things are always based on the obvious.
Think logically about this alleged, Pinball Insider Cartel, and how they would operate and you will begin to understand. It's so easy to never question and simply believe in a conspiracy than it is to seek the truth.
Or, if you prefer, we are the elite, Trilateral Commission of pinball and your overlords, ruling from our secret society. - Send me $500 and I will reveal to you the next three games I'm going to sell.
Supreme Overlord 68, Council of Tri.
Quoted from PPS:The challenge I have with IJ/TAF/TZ is that there were so many games produced ... great games nonetheless ...
I don't know where all the TAFs went. The aftermarket supply seems to have dried up. I'd bet it would sell a ton.
Quoted from Nepi23:Wasn't it rumoured that the guys behind Pinball Circus remake might do Kingpin?
I have not played BBB and I am not sure how well it would sell in comparison to MB and other Williams/Bally classics, but I guess the collectors would want to put that in their collection, but is it really that good of a pin as such?
My wish for the next title: bring on Totan!
Not a rumor - they are working on it. Will it get done and when? Who knows...
Quoted from pinmister:These are like unicorns, if you find one capture it for me. No seriously trying to find a nice Adams that is not beat with mansion wear is near impossible.
Rick, you are hearing it here, from myself and others: IJ/TAF/TZ that are in very good to collector quality bring as much as what you are selling AFMR for and a lot more in some cases. The ones selling for less than that have playfield wear, faded artwork, busted cabinets, burnt up boards and wiring.
I said it numerous times, and I'll say it again: a PPS/CGC NIB TZ with modern electronics, large color display, and a 3rd magnet will have my credit card burning a hole in my wallet!

TZ has a hell of a lot more in it than afm....
I would happily buy a TZr and maybe...maybe a TAFr. Put a lot of love into mine, but if the price is right......
TZ and IJ would cost far more then MM or AFM to re-make. I would expect at least a $10k price tag. Also, there's far more license costs involved for games like TZ, IJ and TAF then Williams original titles.
AFM and MM are Williams owned licenses. TZ, IJ and TAF involve licenses from movie studios as well as actors. Considering that and how much is in each I wouldn't expect them to ever be re-made...$10k at least if they ever did for TZ and IJ.
PanzerFreak And both TZ and IJ are widebody which means they can’t use the same parts for everything.
Quoted from frolic:This has been addressed. Those universal monsters are amongst the cheapest things to license.
Just wondering if it's easy. Why can't the CFTBL and MB 3D back glasses/ translite be produced. Seems it would be no problem. If the pins can be remade. I know CFTBL one was in process but license was the issue.
Quoted from vdojaq:Could Kingpin actually happen? A remake that really would be new to the market.
Yeah, I'd be more excited by Kingpin than BBB if they're doing Capcom games.
OK, captain drink less caffeine do more yoga, I will make sure to follow your 3 commandments of posting the next time I start a thread. Maybe, I can share my posts with you, and you only before hand to get a stamp of approval. You may find the "fact check" threads more suitable for your personality type.
Quoted from flynnibus:In the future.. if you are going to cite/quote something... please actually link to the actual content (and in this case.. quote it) we don't need mobile screencaps.
Second, don't overstate what the actual content is... this post from Rick is essentially the same they have been saying from the start... with the only difference is after AFM being done successfully people think CGC has a chance at actually making more than MMR.
Third - don't start another thread that is essentially the same content that is already being discussed in the source thread.
This clickbait needs to die...
Quoted from Monte:Do it Rick! Gap needs to fleece more customers!
Could you explain this one? NIB prices are competitive, where would any fleecing take place?
Quoted from GAP:Who doesn't want a NIB Addams Family. Just my 2 cents
GAP
Hells yea!
Quoted from PanzerFreak:TZ and IJ would cost far more then MM or AFM to re-make. I would expect at least a $10k price tag.
I disagree. They can purchase build materials in bulk and they don't have to pay for years of design work-it is a re-hash title, not re-inventing the wheel here. They need to keep main price point around or below $7500. If they are $10k I personally will so no thank you. It can be done if guys at CGC can value engineer properly and source all of the parts efficiently.
Quoted from thunderking50:I dont know if this question as been ansewered...like if CC or BBB is made could there be a softwRe update ?
He says they have the source and the software can be changed.
Quoted from dkeruza:I would sell my beloved Original TAF to buy a Brand new TAFr.
Same here. I have a slightly better then players condition TAF. Really nice playfield but cab is a bit dinged up. If they make the large DMD, better lighting, better sound and a ball save in the software I'm selling mine and buying new.
Quoted from pinmister:It can be done if guys at CGC can value engineer properly and source all of the parts efficiently.
Even if sourced inefficiently, it could be done.

Can't and won't be done for $7500, not for TZ or IJ. I just don't think that's a realistic price for those games considering the amount of mechs, devices, materials, and licenses involved for both of those games. Would be much more.
Quoted from PinMonk:He says they have the source and the software can be changed.
Awesome ! Thanks
My dream, straight outta left field. Whitewater with something we've never seen before, but everyone will crap themselves regarding the topper waterfall reproduction. Hey, it could happen.
I’m thrilled that these great titles are getting remade. Count me in for remake #3. Can’t wait to see the reveal at TPF.
