So how many of you that have Fathom on their list have ordered a Haggis? And how many of those are the modernised Mermaid edition?
Not at that price
I cannot believe the prices for new games today
I doubly cannot believe the prices on older game either
I tripply cannot believe I have 3 games over the 10K mark
glad I got in before these silly prices
I would never overpay for a remake, and those prices are insane. My view on remakes are that if the game was an unfinished product - "Cactus Canyon" or "Kingpin" - then I'm all for it. "Fathom" is one of my all time favorites that took me 10-15 years to source well before it became one of the most sought after machines in this country (along with Embryon, Viking, Medusa etc). No remake will even come close to the classic look and feel (even the SMELL) of the original. I don't understand why manufacturers simply back their own abilities and create an original title / layout to compete with classic machines ? I heard that "Meteor" is being remade - another AWESOME machine. Why ? Are designer's / manufacturer's skills that poor that they rely on original designs ?
If you have the skills and ability to produce a new / unique table, why not produce the next "Meteor" or "Fathom". Stop copying old designs. Lazy, unimaginative money grab. "But it is hard to find an original to own" - Sorry, they are out there if you look for them..
