Medusa
Flash Gordon
Radical

Maybe some other Sega/DE DMD, like an ID4.

I do not. Sorry I missed this earlier. I'm going to guess those are rare, as it seems like most SMBMWs went to Chuck E Cheese locations and dispensed tickets.

Local pickup only. I want a buyer to be able to inspect the game, pay cash, and I will help load.

Bought one two weeks ago for 2200 local pick up would have killed my deal I had it shipped from Chicago all that being said your cheap on price don't be afraid to ship bro.

Here's my hesitation: I transported a game to expo. By the time the buyer (reputable member) got it home - one was probably cold solder joints, one was something I forgot to mention and was completely my mistake, and one was something I believe happened in transportation but can't be sure. Likely none of it's the buyer's fault; elements of it can be chalked up to moving a 30 year old game twice, and I made an omission in my description. However, I ended up refunding the buyer 20% of the purchase price, which is what he felt would make things right. I want to avoid a replay of that situation. Again, I don't fault the buyer one bit.

Partially as a result of this, I have a strong preference for a deal where the buyer can afford take personal responsibility for inspecting the game, pay cash, and leave.

You have to consider the playfield condition in the price...

I am looking for one since 1 year, over 2000USD the machine must be very nice. Mario Mushroom does not sell for such insane prices we could think about.

Oh man, I'm going to be in Indy this Sunday for a trade, but only have room for one game in my minivan.... Otherwise I'd be all over that. I'm really not looking to drive that far again soon, but will shoot a message your way if I change my mind. I do like Swords of Fury!

Like I said, not 100%. I couldnt look at the pics so well on my phone, I didnt realize the kick outs were so bad. All good though, thanks for the correspondence.

Someone should repro this playfield!

I'm half serious. I'm sure there wouldn't be enough of a market for it. But, man - they are always blown out.

Hoping to get mine back set up next week! Good luck with the sale, love this machine. It's far better than people give it credit for. I wish that I could put lightning flippers on it to make it just a bit more difficult, but my son loves it. (See: Avatar )

I have a Villager, which is smaller than most. I have fit two EMs in it. Can't do two games without fully detaching both backboxes, tho.

I've fit two in a Caravan, easily.

I think they're mostly pretty similar to this because most seemed to end up in Chuck E Cheese... And we all know how THAT goes for pins

System 3 gottliebs were lacquered from the factory, no "diamond plate". Most of them are blown out. It isn't even a fair comparison to a B/W diamond plated playfield of the same age.

I don't think the majority went to CECs. If so, there are a heck of a lot less than the original 500 out there, as CEC had a policy to destroy any games that were old and scheduled to be replaced on the floor. I know - I worked there around that time. And yes, I got to sledgehammer games, and it usually made me feel bad.

Although sledgehammering the old Whack-a-Mole games was amazingly satisfying. When you split them with a sledge, they DON'T pop back up!

I bought one recently from another Pinsider. The reason I got one was because I played it a lot at a Chuck E Cheese as a kid (and the wife approved of the buy).

I found out during the deal that it was one that NiftyLED saved:
https://pinside.com/pinball/forum/topic/fs-super-mario-bros-mushroom-world

Fun Game. Kid loves the tickets. Nostalgia factor in full play.

It's never leaving my collection (partly because it's tough to move infinity pounds back up from the basement with two tight turns.)

2K obo seems like a good starting point to me Collin. Surely one of the dozens of Pinsiders with this game on their wishlist won't want to pass this up. GLWTS

Thanks! I actually dropped the price to $1700 a few days ago, though I think I only updated that in one of the two places here.

I used two have two, and would run Initial D version 3 linked. Sold the other one for a grand. Probably want to keep this one, though.
