not sure if you realize or not, but each of those trades is for games or combinations of games typically worth more that a GBpro. In all cases, those games are also slightly tougher to come across as GBpro are readily available currently.

I do which is why I offered to throw in cash. I'm not sure I really consider JP and BW to be worth an exorbitant amount more unless in amazing condition or the like, but either way as I said I'm fine with throwing in a bit if cash!
Quoted from waspinat0r:Looking for a Breakshot as well. Basically, if it's on my wishlist, I'm interested!
LOL, if you can't keep a modern stern for more than a week, avoid Breakshot like the plague.

Haha! Fair enough!
Hit WRTBY as a nice send off for when this fella leaves. All the work I did for it was for naught though as my score still stunk and I drained horribly almost immediately.
Quoted from PoMC:Really wish you were closer because I have a WCS that I'm going to list for sale soon along with a Wipeout. Also have a Baywatch that my wife says is a keeper, but she might be willing to see it go for a Ghostbusters.
Damn I wish that too! I'd love to have all of 'em
Also see you have a met, shadow, and TFTC...dang man! My dream collection!
Quoted from Doctor6:Holy crap. I've NEVER seen someone flip pins like you.... ever!!!
I don't like the word flip. I don't try to make money, I try to keep it even and fair for both parties. but I also understand what you mean! I just like trying new games!
Quoted from Doctor6:Holy crap. I've NEVER seen someone flip pins like you.... ever!!!
Yeah I wouldn't call it flipping either. He's more than fair in his dealings. More like indecisive. Haha
Quoted from Doctor6:I meant no harm in the term. I meant.... extremely temporary adoptions.
Oh, no offense taken! And you're absolutely right. You and Chuck hit the nail on the heads.
Quoted from waspinat0r:I miss my SW and GoT quite a bit, actually.
But right now I'd say Metallica is my #1 pick for a machine. I've had a couple folks tell me it's not a great single pin game, and others swear by it as a single pin machine.
I'm actually waffling back and forth between SW and GoT TBH. The wife is pushing me for GoT, and I do enjoy playing it on location... but man... SW is the dream theme for me.
Thus my question... If you had to choose between the two, which one do you think I should get?
Sorry to hi-jack the thread, man. Good luck with the trade... or sale!

No worries my main! Not a hijack, happy to answer.
Honestly...it's a tough question to answer. On theme alone, I'd go SW. But as far as gameplay (as far as current code goes, anyway), I'd go GoT. It's fully fleshed out, super fun, flowy, and very deep. That being said, I'm sure SW will become super deep as well over time, and the flow/speed are amazing. However, it's not fully fleshed out (yet), with a lot of features missing and the multipliers kind of being silly. The shots can SDTM even when hit(although this could just be how my machine was set up), in a lot of situations, and the button mashing gets very cumbersome. Either way, both games are very fun.
At this very second, I'd say go with GoT, unless you're cool with waiting a few months on the code to develop further, then go SW, since it's a dream theme for ya. It's only going to get better. But just be ready to deal with one handed flipping as you learn to love or hate the action button.
Motivated to have this fella traded or sold by the weekend. Would love to have a new game or two! Make a (fair, c'mon) offer!
Quoted from waspinat0r:Haha. You're tellin me, man. Being unable to haul machines is my complete undoing.
You could rent a truck from Uhaul. Not sure how much that costs but is an option.
Quoted from Slim64:For some $$$ I know a guy that could haul. Lol
Haha! Surely you wouldn't want to drive all the way down here every time I'm ready to move a machine.
Quoted from GhostThruster:You could rent a truck from Uhaul. Not sure how much that costs but is an option.
I've looked into this and sometimes it's up in the hundreds when coupled with gas fees. It gets crazy. And I can't get a trailer because my vehicles won't fit hitches.

Uhaul pickups that expensive? Wonder if a enterprise suv rental would be cheaper lol

You could always do what I did.. I sold my car and bought a truck just because I needed something to haul pins haha. Definitely not the cheapest option though.
Haha, thanks for the tips on hauling, ya'll. I'm starting to notice some Gottlieb games I'm interested in. Oh Lord, help me.
There's an Enterprise in your town. I've used them before here and it's no more than $150 for a round trip road trip of under 300 miles (they usually have either unlimited miles or a very high amount of allowed miles before the charge per mile) with a mid-sized, fairly fuel-efficient pickup. Just make sure they don't give you the bigger Dodge truck. I did that once and it was so high off the ground that it made it really tough to load and unload the pinball machine.

Gotcha. Thank you for that.
Are you playing all these games or just picking theme and watching videos? Truthfully many Gottlieb titles are rather weak and shallow (some are good though). To each their own for sure, but if you got bored of Ghostbusters I do not think for a second a System 3 will hold your attention for more than 20 minutes. I think most pinsiders would agree with that statement.

He was clearly talking about GTB EMs.

Yes! Also hey c'mon now stargate is awesome.
Quoted from waspinat0r:Yes! Also hey c'mon now stargate is awesome.
Hell yeah it is. Gladiators is fun, waterworld is fine too. Never played wipeout but always wanted to. The rest that I've played (SF2 and Mario A) are pretty bad.
