Quoted from CaptainNeo:...
And most("collectors") don't know how to do any work on them either. So serviceability is farthest thing from their mind.
...
But anyone that has been a collector for a long time, and fixes their own games, know that these new games are going to be a problem 5 + years down the road.
...
If it's not fixable 10-20 years from now, I don't think I want it in my collection. And I won't be buying anymore Spike system games.
Perfectly put IMHO.
