Recoding: also depends on how much polish you want. Is it just a simple game that still has a multiball and no modes? Can we skip things light animations, light effects, etc? I re-created Count Down from scratch on a LISY in about 4 hours. Was bare bones, but then again all system 1 games are anyway, so it wasn't an issue. By Space Shuttle era, williams was putting a lot of polish on their games
Original hardware is harder, I probably had 2-3 weeks worth of time into reimplementing hot tip from scratch. But on the other hand you don't need to purchase new boards or deal with the wiring
Quoted from slochar:Why would you alter the unlimited millions? It's a skillful shot, not awarded by randomness. The tournament mods code that people do is mostly for fairness, not for kneecapping a legit scoring opportunity.
Makes the game play too long, and isn't interesting to watch/etc. There are many games with some level of unfair randomness that TDs would rather use than police force
