Shadow is worth more so if your "good buddy" price is the same for either it's a no-brainer.

They are both good games but I've gotten tired of WCS pretty fast whenever I've owned it. Shadow, with it's modes and a much better wizard mode, along with more multiball features and a third flipper, has more staying power and more to offer in my opinion.

Super exclusive ad from the Pinside Marketplace!

Quoted from examiner:

There's no cheap fix for bare wood right above the flippers. Either learn to live with it/ignore it, or prepare yourself for an expensive, time consuming and labor intensive undertaking of tearing down the playfield and sending it out to be restored and clear coated. And then putting it all back together again and making sure everything works!

Man, it's really all or nothing with some of you dudes.

I've seen perfectly serviceable touch ups, covered up by clear nail polish to protect it, many times. I had a friend do this for me on a High Speed and it took about an hour. I bought him dinner and gave him 20 bucks and everybody was happy.

Quoted from Bwilson:

The parts for The Shadow are somewhat limited. I would say the diverter assembly (left or right) is about impossible to find. The gun handle for the plunger good freaking luck. The plastic phurba daggers sold my first born child. The ramps are probably hard to come by as well.

Actually you can buy the ramps brand new for $165 a set.
