    Filling the last slot (gigidy) for my brew pub location. Which would you rather see? Walking Dead premium or Fun House. It is a kid friendly location, but I wouldn't think walking dead would be much of an issue.

    Walking dead probably get more plays due to theme

    TWD all the way.

    What is the rest of the lineup? Would help make the decision I think.

    #5 4 years ago

    TWD is still a theme casual fans will recognize- go with the more relevant modern theme that should earn more

    Funhouse. It will add some more variety to the collection and Rudy is still one of the best toys in pinball.

    I think you are heavy on fan layout type pins.
    Of the two choices I would go with TWD because most women find FH creepy and won't play it.
    I think WH20 or FG would round out the collection better.

    TWD will earn better and be significantly easier to maintain. Unless your crowd has a lot of people nostalgic for FH while they play all your newer games, this choice seems like a no brainer.

    I personally like FH better than TWD, but for a location I would expect TWD to be a much better earner.

    #13 4 years ago

    TWD will be your choice

    #14 4 years ago

    TWD will get way more play and require way less maintenance.

    Funhouse was my wife's favorite game that I've owned. She found Rudy hilarious and would curse back at him.

    I'd go with Funhouse personally. Plus it's a drain monster with no ball save and will earn those dollars faster.

    FH has that Alphanumeric look, turns people off with other lcd’s in the room.

    TWD. C’mon man....

    And TWD is a brutal pin. Quick games.

    #17 4 years ago

    If you have any leagues or tournaments I would recommend Funhouse for variety of play. Even for earning, its sometimes nice to have a not so modern pin to pull out those that like some older SS games.

    #18 4 years ago

    TWD is newer, more relevant of a theme, and doesn't have a creepy talking head. This is a no-brainer.

    Although, every single operator I know says claw machines KILL it. You could get a claw machine with free beer tickets inside. Lolololol

    #19 4 years ago

    Ironic that Rudy is creepier than a bunch of zombies? I'd rather play Funhouse, but if I wanted to make money TWD.

    Funhouse...what other game is gonna call you a BIG SAUSAGE ???

    One Rudy callout does not a business make. Want a popular title with the tiny amount of Pinballers that show up or you want to make money? Don’t be blinded by what WE like ( FH is awesome, btw!), go with what’s gonna be relevant. TWD is still a popular show, and known worldwide.

    Sounds like I'm not taking this as serious as you. Just think that people unfamiliar with Rudy will want to keep playing to see what else he might say. The carnival theme will appeal to a wider range of age groups as well.

    Funhouse is alphanumeric. Looks...dated. TWD is led display. Even more ‘modern’ with Colordmd. Is FH fun? Yes. Will folks puts money in it with other more modern pins in lineup? Unfortunately, probably not. On location people want new hotness.

    Thanks everyone for your thoughts. Decided to go with the TWD. It'll be going into solace brewery in the very near future. Come on out and give it a play!
