Welcome to pinball, but you’ve picked two of the worst games to start with...that being said, your first game will always be awesome cuz it’s your first game.

Srsly tho, I’d explore other titles. I’ve been in this hobby for ~15 years & GB is hands down the worst game I’ve ever played in my life. Just absolutely terrible design, Huge flipper gap, unfair airballs, cheap drains and bounce-outs...it’s just unfun. Code does not save it. It’s still goofy. Plus, as mentioned - designed by a disgusting pedophile.

Stranger Things is new & underbaked.

If you’re leaning toward a newer Stern with a family friendly theme, go with Jurassic Park. Truly a great game.

Quoted from Gee_Bananas:

Thanks again guys. Went with a “safer” option and decided on a NIB JP Premium. Played a floor model about 20 times today, and it just felt a lot funner than STh.
It gets delivered on Monday. Super pumped!

You win!!!!

Quoted from ectobar:

I've heard it rumored that Gary Stern showed up at Rarehero's house and kicked his dog while pissing in his cheerios all while proclaiming GB2 > GB.
But that's just what I heard.

Fake news.

Fact: He fired John Trudeau due to his arrest for possession of child porn & abusing a minor.
