Ok so what game would you buy if it were remade? You can vote for more than one.
Quoted from Rarehero:Wizard Blocks was never made, so if it was completed it wouldn't be a remake.
Wizard blocks was definitely made or they wouldn't exist.
Centaur or Paragon. Any older game with great artwork combined with a well thought out playfield. Either that or...Bad Girls
Quoted from Pinballlew:Wizard blocks was definitely made or they wouldn't exist.
Only a few protos were made and they're incomplete. It never went into production. I've played a proto and it's incredible - I'd love to see it finished and brought to market....but it's highly unlikely.

This guy could be your answer:

I'd be interested in an older game like Joker Poker or Centaur, but not if it costs as much as a new DMD. $3K max. Zero chance of this happening so I'm out.

I am willing to go as far as $4K. Should be possible especially on their own titles like Seawitch or Quicksilver since Stern already owns the rights. It's not like they have to redesign everything from scratch. Wiring, code, artwork, it's all there. Should cost them $2K max to put it together.
I'd love for Stern to remake GnR but lose the widebody cab and the dumb wireform ball launch.
Would also love a SMB remake ... still a hot theme.
Take Elvis and retheme that game (Deadpool, Star Wars, Monty Python, anything other than Elvis)... keep the same rules, same playfield layout, just new art, new music, and new dots
I think any of those three would possibly get my cash
Solid state remakes that I would be interested in: Fathom, Spirit, Centaur, Quicksilver.
DMD's: Kingpin
I would LOVE it if it were viable to remake some solid state era games. so many fantastic titles. but unfortunately, i don't think they would be any cheaper to manufacture than DMD remakes, meaning they would have to cost about the same amount, and i doubt many people would be willing to pay that much.
Quoted from BowlingJim:Ghostbusters
I don't know. The last time someone remade Ghostbusters it didn't work out so well.
Quoted from pezpunk:I would LOVE it if it were viable to remake some solid state era games. so many fantastic titles. but unfortunately, i don't think they would be any cheaper to manufacture than DMD remakes, meaning they would have to cost about the same amount, and i doubt many people would be willing to pay that much.
I have no clue but I have heard both sides to the cost of this....what would be the max you would spend for an older SS remake NIB?
For me I would pay up to $3500-$4000 for a Frontier.

Maybe not. If they used Alltek (or something like them) boards they wouldn't have wouldn't have to engineer most of the electronics. Only issue would be the transformer, sound board(s) and possibly a rectifier board. That could be a big savings in production as opposed to adapt a game to some other system or engineering a system.

That is a great point...just maybe this is a possibility down the road!
Quoted from TomGWI:Early SS - Fathom
Why? You know it would only hang around the G-manor for about 2 weeks anyway.

I would love for Stern to show us what they can do with a widebody pin as other new company's are doing and pack a lot in a game
Tron.
Please.

I was able to spend a lot of time on Chuck's Tron today. Ohhh, so nice. A remake would be nice, but a remake for less money than an original is what I believe would be best.

LoL
That'll *never* happen.
