I have done this too. I see it as sort of a physical savings account for pinball funds. Problem is I'm also not very good at being able to thin the herd. I currently have 16 on route (the way my post is on topic, my answer is I route them and they multiply... very, very slowly) and several at home. Too many at home so now I have to try to sell some, which is tough because the lesser known games are still fun to me.

Only 3 of my 16 games out currently are new enough to even take them. Corvette, AFM, Ghostbusters. I don’t have them on any machine though. Not yet anyway. There is always a more pressing expense as well as a debt that is being paid off as well.
