Any games that require strategy and difficult shots can be fun. IMHO, if you don't find other machines fun, you're simply not getting it. I was in the rut for a while with only playing 90s w/b until tournament play forced me to learn older games. They are just different. Equally fun, but refreshingly different, even ems are fun. New Stern's are great to learn trap and shoot. Again, different and fun.
My Genie has been non stop fun since purchase.
there are almost no "new" games that I would even consider purchasing (except for the CGC remakes).
Maybe if I had room for 20 or more machines, I'd be willing to consider a DP or BM66, but as I can only fit a few games, that's not going to happen.
My favorites are the 90's B/W, but I also love a lot of SS machines (like EBD and Centaur) and EM machines (like Atlantis and El Dorado).
Then you're missing out on the first games designed by a world champion. They are truly amazing in a home environment, even though they have absolute shit QC and build quality LoL.
I don't get the criticism for long ball times. You love pinball, but playing it more upsets you?
I like fast, short games too, but a long-assed game on IMDN hits the spot just as well.
Quoted from Bospins:I’ll say this:
Most older games, and especially EMs, have sexualized or vaguely (or overtly) racist themes or art. I get that they are a product of their time and this is not a comment on their layouts or rule sets, but in my house, in the time through which we are living - it’s a no go.
Of course there are exceptions but I suspect the above may be a factor in what ends up in the garage/basement/cave.
You have it backwards. There are exceptions that are non-PC, but the majority are just fine.
Quoted from pinmister:Everyone likes different things and it is not 'wrong' if you do not care for older titles or if you prefer newer titles.
WRONG!
