Quoted from resipsa:

So PPS has all the rights to the old bally/williams games? Do they separately have the rights to the Capcom games or were those acquired by Bally/Williams back in the day?

Quoted from pinballaddicted:

The AFMr at Logans Arcade is one of the prototypes. If I am wrong could some one please correct me. I am a Stern fan but if you compare the Stern shooter lanes in the Arcade, they have much more wear and chipping than AFRr, guaranteed the Sterns have much less plays. I believe that CGC playfields and cabinets are the best in the business. Look at all the pre 2015 Stern playfield and cabinets. Absolutely beautiful. Demand is forcing playfield manufacturers to put 3 coats of clear on each playfield making the playfield more prone to chipping and showing the scratches a lot more. CGC quality is second to none and they are definitely the benchmark. I jumped to the same incorrect conclusions at the start. While we were in the USA we had a really good look at the remakes. We are definitely in for AFMr, MMr and MBr. We are going to sell much loved machines (HS2 & AVLE) to fit them in our collection.

Quoted from SuperPinball:

I think you are looking at a different game than the rest of us are.

Quoted from Stones:

I heard on a certain podcast......that the guys making Python's Circus machine.....are going to make Kingpin. I dont know much validity there is in that.

Quoted from snaroff:

I agree. A little early to proclaim "CGC quality is second to none and they are definitely the benchmark" (pinballaddicted's comment).
AFMr is my first CGC product. Aesthetically, AFMr is beautiful and the packaging is awesome (topper, blades, armor, display). No complaints (and I still own a HEP AFM high-end original). My primary concern is the electronics and how AFMr plays. I've owned a lot of games over the years, and my first week of ownership hasn't been great (the game was built on 12/6/17).
My right flipper stopped working after 10-20 plays. Blown fuse. Replaced the fuse and right flipper was permanently engaged even without pressing "Start". Fuse apparently didn't protect the board...it was damaged somehow. New board and flipper solenoids being sent...should arrive tomorrow.
Before the flipper died, my flippers played wildly strong even dialed down to -23. Balls flying off wireforms. CGC was concerned the AC in my home was elevated (despite all my other games playing well). I bought a device to measure my AC 24/7...AC range is 116-120. Perfect.
The plunger and shooter lane were also wonky and needed to be dialed in to get the ball traveling in the right direction. Discussed in great detail on Pinside.
CGC has been incredibly responsive to my issues. From a warranty & support perspective, I believe they are best-in-class. This is a new pinball platform and I expect some bumps in the road...I just hope the architecture is sound and the new solenoid board solves my problems.

Can you post pics?

walk into my gun sights

Quoted from Mr68:

You are not alone as this ridiculous rumor has persisted on Pinside for years.

Quoted from Mr68:

Hilton will be jumping up and down accusing me of all sorts of conspiracies.

Quoted from rubberducks:

Just look at the top side and under side of a Fathom playfield, and then at AFMr - a 'simple' modern game that's been remade. Fathom has way fewer mechs, no toys, no ramps, no scoops, no wireforms. The ball always stays above the playfield, except in the trough. Not only is the BoM significantly lower, but assembly time (and thus costs) would be a lot lower. The engineering and board design cycle would also be hugely foreshortened - and that has certainly cost a lot of money for both MMr and AFMr.
There's a reason why TNA came to fruition so quickly, whitewood proto to production, aside from Danesi and Spooky's collective talents. Mechanically, it's a very simple game. If Scott had done his take on a SuperPin, it would have probably taken years to reach production.
If you then want to take a look at TZ (which some people want remade), you'll see how much higher the BoM and assembly costs would be than even a game as densely packed as MM, and what a mammoth task it'd be to re-engineer it all.
Also, I never said anything about purchase price, and I haven't seen anyone talk about sub $5000 prices, let alone $3500. I was talking about low cost to CGC (or whomever would be making it), thus lower risk and high potential profit margins (even at a lower asking price).

Quoted from rubberducks:

Do you think a modern version would use 31 coils?

Quoted from musketd:

The owner of planetary was on here saying it’s getting done guess that don’t mean anything

Quoted from Mr68:

Yeah, I've been thinking it's going to be MB also but I now regret it. I mean, the only reason I was tending to believe that was because 90% of Pinside keeps telling me Monster Bash is next. Monster Bash is next! Monster Bash is next!
Now I hope it's any title other than MB just to shut up Rumor Control.

Quoted from Ericc123:

I might be late to the party here but what did he say that didn’t come to fruition?

Quoted from PinMonk:

Kingpin should be #1.

Quoted from turbo20lbs:

In regards to BBB rights and Rick, don't forget Rick was able to C and D that guy who was making the neon BBB signs.

Quoted from Mr68:

I respectfully disagree and found BBB a very fun game with some of the best art and sounds ever. Very cool interactive toys too.
Everybody is entitled to their opinion of course, but I believe many people's expectations are set way too high before playing one. Because of the enormous price, most people cannot justify what they sell for and I believe that clouds their judgment somewhat. Not accusing you or anyone but I also believe jealousy subconsciously plays a role in some people not liking it.
It's not the greatest game ever but easily a top 100 and most likely a top 50, IMO. If they remake it, it will be the only title of the remakes that I'm interested in.

Quoted from spfxted:

I think there are plenty of games to remake.....how about Scared Stiff?
