I have built a dream arcade in my home after many years of collecting, buying, fixing, selling to get what I want. I have unfortunately been working on my pins way way more than playing them and it's starting to get to me. I have been kicking around the idea of trading/selling off a couple older pins (BOP and PZ) for a SW Pro. My hope is then I would be playing more than fixing. People with newer pins...are your pins always giving you grief or do you actually get to play them without pulling the glass every day?

If you look at my history you will see the majority of my games have been EMs. I actually really like working on EMs but none have been keepers except Hot Tip (which I love) and Spooksville (which I will probably keep no matter what for its novelty if nothing else). Finding broken EMs, fixing and selling them has allowed me to buy the newer pins I really enjoy...when they work...lol.

No. It had a bunch of switch issues and power resets but I have addressed all of those (as well as full top side tear down and cleaning) and it plays great! PZ if giving me issues right now...☹

Wow. It has never been put to me that way...lol. I am running an arcade with no income from said arcade. My tech is mediocre at best too.... Damn...lol.

I think I've had up to 9 before. My current setup only allows for 7 pins. I would have to sell some arcade machines to make room for anymore. Unless I put some pins in the middle of the room. My hope is that 7 is enough...we shall see.
