If it had the old school comic book art I woulda been more apt to buy.
Should've had the old art from the early days. Romita, etc.
IMO, they blew it.

Uh, the question wasn't about why you DIDN'T buy one.
Quoted from epthegeek:Uh, the question wasn't about why you DIDN'T buy one.
Uh, eat me.
Quoted from rai:Too much money, stern blew it.
indeed to high for what it is
Quoted from kaneda:Let me guess, everyone hates the price
Wrong, any original owner loves the price.
Have you guys seen the video that plays the spidey music at the end with the synced in flashing lights ? Really cool
Quoted from forensicd:I couldnt help it, wanted a spidey, would rather have new then 8-10 year old one.
No need to sound like you're apologizing. From what I hear they've already sold what they were hoping to, so the game is a success.
Quoted from Rarehero:» YouTube video
True but I like my 2015 Nissans better than my 2012"S and that's only a 3 year span. Some games are classics but some things just get better with new technology. I love the artwork package on it and am glad to get a nib

Best line I heard all year!
Quoted from happilymarried05:Why do they love the price? Seriously (no sarcasm I promise) ??
Because if they priced it as a Pro, the existing SMs would lose a lot of its resale value. Can you imagine someone trying to sell a 2007 machine with 1000 plays for $5k when a brand new one with upgrades, NIB delivered to your door for $4800?
have never seen the old music thing. Really cool. Makes me even more sad that I am not getting a smve- just can't justify the price. Looking for a new machine but would probably go st pro (more likely) or Metallica pro (played it once, loved it, want to try again and make sure)

Why would you be sad, it's not even close to being worth it.

ohhhhhh duh, thanks. I should have been able to figure that out lol
Quoted from iceman44:Well then jump on it. Be in the top 100 class
Are you following me lol

Met pro is very nice, you could add a shaker, color armor, color DMD, total light mod and assorted other mods and still be safely under $6600.
I was hesitant due to not loving Met theme, but if you like their music even a little bit the pin is awesome.
Quoted from doughslingers:Can't wait for orders to arrive. Spider-Man was a hit each time, just like Ironman in the pic above. Thanks for the orders so far.
Good luck man.
The distribution model is so weird to me, to be honest. Stern can claim they sold out of Spider-Man VE's first run, but that doesn't mean people bought them all, just that the distributors did.

Get Metallica! I've owned both games. Well METLE and Star Trek Premium. Metallica is never leaving unless I bail on the hobby all together. Star Trek is long gone and not missed.
Not everyone will agree of course, but to me Met is the far superior game, one of Stern's best, and way more compelling that Star Trek, which starts to feel pointless to play after a while. Expert players might enjoy the scoring strategies, but to everyone else all the modes feel exactly the same and it turns into a bore fest.
