Quoted from Trace_on:I found a thread with this title but it is 2 years old. Any ideas in the 2014 market? I have a couple of friends who are thinking of getting a first pin and want to give them some good advice.
Baywatch?
Last Action Hero?
From my experience, it depends if theme/toys/music is important with newbies.
If it has to be a dot matrix game:
Breakshot (great toy)
Jackbot
WCS (great toy)
MSF
Baywatch
T2 (great sound)
Mario Andretti
Lethal Weapon 3
LAH (great toy)
Waterworld
Royal Rumble
Probably could buy for around 1500:
Getaway (great sound) (great toy)
Doctor Who (great toy/gimmick)
Who Dunn-it
Nascar
Harley Davidson
If it can be older (most for less than 1500):
Whirlwind (great toys)
Taxi
Sorcerer
SOF (great sound)
Joker Poker
Checkpoint
High Speed or Secret Service (great sound)
Eight Ball Deluxe
Eight Ball
Dr. Dude (great toy)
Time Machine (great sound)
BOP (great toy)
Paragon
A few that I don't see FS very often for 1500 are:
TS, BSD, JM, JP, JD, TFTC
The market for this price hasn't changed that much in a year though.
