Medieval Madness (Remake - Standard)
Chicago Gaming Co., 2015I have MMR and missed the '90s resurgence of pinball completely. It's all new to me so I get to play these games fresh. I like playing on location for a "different" game experience rather than owning another pin. MMR is an excellent choice for HUO I think. Got a variety of arcade/gameroom machines and space for only 1 pin.
I think the only time I had only one, was 1973 and for about 3 days......always more than 1 after that!
Quoted from bonzo442:Honestly if I had to have only one pin I'd rather have none because I would get sick of that pin after a while and never play it
Was thinking of rotating it if that ever happens, like larger collection owners do.
Move some of the "arcades/gameroom machines" and bring in at least another pinball machine. I think when it's all said and done my space will be filling with 6 pins, 2 arcades, and 1 chexx. That's a good ratio for me.

You're missing foosball and darts.

I guess but it's going to happen pretty fast so be ready! Don't want to sound like a pinball snob but seriously 3 was the lowest amount that kept my interest going, man I do sound like a snob !
I only have one physical pinball machine. 
But I also have a MAME cabinet loaded with my favorite arcade games and some heavily-played pinball simulators like "Zaccaria Pinball"
I had only one (pinball magic) for about a decade. Had a pool table and dart board in the game room as well and was pretty happy with my set up. Then I built a virtual pinball cabinet and started to get the itch to play those games in real life. Added twilight zone, the cyclone, Batman the dark knight, champion pub, revenge from mars, Star Wars ep 1, scared stiff, high deal, Metallica and rob zombie and now I seem to perpetually have one more than the amount of space I have. But I like this set up more than when I had a solo machine.
Quoted from PopBumperPete:normal people are happy with only one machine,
pinsiders aren't normal
Normal people don't own pinball machines lol
Your only one, Medieval Madness it is a great title. Perhaps sell a couple of your arcades to make room for more pinball they seem to have better lastability. Besides, most arcade games can be Consolidated by owning just one multi-cade. Then eventually you can reach the point when you are out of space or out of money.
I have one for the past few years, can't decide on which one would be next. Use to think it would be a 90's era game but now I think it will be more recent game made, just waiting for the right title and new technology in games. I am in no rush, I am glad I have one. Do I play it all the time no, do I play a game whenever I find It in the wild ,yes as long as it works. Would I want a huge collection probably but have no desire to fix them as not a tech guru or have patience for it. I am in a pinball league and check this site a lot as one of my top three sites besides the NHL and Blabbermouth.net. So there you go it is possible. I enjoy and lucky to be in my pin league and playing just about every new or limited game that has come out.
i started with 1
then pretty soon i had 2
then i had 3
then back to 2 and eventualy 1
now i want 1 more
my plan was to have 1 and swap now and then, but for a strange reason ( adiction? ) you keep looking searching wanting finding etc.
so, no
even if you have only 1, you know you want more
and probably 3 is the minimum
I have One...
In my workshop being restored.
I'm picking up Friday.
I'm trying to buy from another Pinsider.
"Arcave" with 8 other pins. (Man cave doesn't work for us as the little lady plays nightly too.)
I play 3 games on a different one every day.
I was happy with 1. but then wanted 2, then 3 and so on and on, and 11 later, still not happy, but I have run out of space.... 
If the P3 is successful I will probably sell all my pins and just get one P3. It's great having multiple machines but I don't like having too much stuff in case I want to move.
One pin? Time Warp was my first and it was like Gremlins getting wet and multiplied. No regrets. Enjoy all of them.

I know two people with single pins. One has a Twilight Zone, the other has a High Speed and both enjoy their machines. Neither would ever be here talking about pinball though. There are probably thousands of casual game fans out there like that, you're just never going to hear from them.
One pin...I thought you said just one more... never mind, I definitely shouldnot be involved with this post.
I'm like the fundamentalist Mormon of pinball owners. I like to keep 10 or 12 and play with a different one every night. 
I got BSD first and within a couple months I had a TOM. Then that got traded for a LOTR. Then over the next couple years I added a TOTAN, CONGO, STTNG and a TS. I had 6 at my highest point. And many were older games not in great condition and it became tough for me to keep them all playing. So I slowly sold and traded down to 3 newer Sterns which are MET, IMVE and AC/DC Prem.
They have zero issues and I can just enjoy playing them. I think I would get bored with only 1 pin though. At least 2 pins will keep it from getting repetitive right away. Even with 3 pins I am at a point where it's time to trade something out and try something new.
Quoted from schudel5:1 and holding.
Holding 47 more.
I had 5 games at one time. Sold them all and got a nib GoT premium. I've had it for over a year and still love it, its not going anywhere. I used to have a virtual pin that I built myself, it had about 175 games on it and I only played a couple of them repeatedly.
I plan to get an AFM in a couple years and maybe a TSPP at some point but I'm no longer concerned about quantity, I'd much rather a couple quality games.
1 great game is better then a dozen "C" and "D" list games.
