    Quoted from woody76:

    This is one thing I am noticing about new folks in the hobby. They only own new Stern or JJP games. I have had better luck with a 30 year old machine than the newer ones. node board issues, cheaper parts, playfield chipping and other issues.

    this is something i've observed as well. so many ppl new to ownership are missing out on the historical experience and variety of games. just pop into the gameroom thread and its nothing but a gallery of sterns that retailed in the last 3-4 years... how the old games feel and their experiences still hold up. They may not be huge story, deep mode games, but they stand their ground for different reasons.
