I agree with grantopia 100%. Totan is a great game, but you can probably find 2 really good games for the price of that one. Play as much as you can and find out what you like. Learning how the machine works and doing repairs can be just as fun as playing. This is just my opinion, but try and find a working Bally/Williams machine and start there. System 11 or Dmd is a great place to start. They typically hold their value if you want to move on to something else. Learn everything you can about that machine. Soldering, wiring schematics, boards, and mechs. Once you’re comfortable getting your hands dirty, then build your collection.
