Quoted from Brickshot:Although I think they need a few new attactive sales features (cabinet art, or light mods, etc.)
I'm personally okay without any of that stuff and giving a fair price.
THAT SAID.... they need to make smart decisions that fit the game. And putting strobing LEDS in a game that was heavily reliant on fading incandescent bulbs to indicate different game state was not. Nor was losing callouts that pretty much everyone universally agrees MADE THE GAME. And that's a huge risk with LOTR, unfortunately, just as it was with Spider-Man. I can get past the art and callouts and new (lazy) dots on SMVE, but losing the callouts was BLEH and the LEDs was a deal-killer since nobody could be bothered to answer my questions about it. Ask my wife.. I would've sold all my other games for that had it been a straight remake at 5200...heh.
Tron is just ripe for doing a retro VE.. I honestly don't see how they can pass up that opportunity. It doesn't even need any playfield changes, just the old original Tron things to replace the Legacy stuff. Lightcycles and disc...direct replacement. Change "Clu" to "Sark", change the quorra shot to be "tank" and Gem to "Bit"...."Follow Flynn" to "Follow Yori"... this stuff is practically a no-brainer. You don't need some wierd overhaul of the rules and whatnot. I'm pretty sure that Legacy was not most people's first thought when the name "Tron" comes up...much as I personally like it. This is probably the exception to the rule for me as far as re-themed releases would go.
100% agree they need to stick to things like cabinet art and translites, add protectors where it makes sense and improve reliability of the game mechs....but DON'T JACK WITH THE CORE CONTENT OF THE GAME IN ALMOST ALL CASES. IMVE was beautiful. Love playing that game on location.
