Me we'll look at it (46 machines on wish list) btw not all in collection list may differ to my dad pinballgeekSR (I'm 13 , dad 43 owner of the machines ) I do enjoy a mix era if games but I am fond of joust and varkon the most
(Topic ID: 81283)
About 10 but I only would actually pay for one or two of them if they showed up at my house today. I think it's more of an interest list.

True my dad would never own all of them
But the ones I think he may get in the near future would be
Bk2k
Solar fire
Flash Gordon
Dr who
Star Trek
Metallica
Lotr
Getaway
Fish tales
And joust if lucky
Citrus Heights, CA
4, trying to be selective but as stated above if all 4 showed at my door tomorrow I would maybe only buy 2.
0 are on my wish list as I don't see the point in having one. If you have one are you more likely to have some Rich Pinhead searching through wishlists of unsuspecting blokes such as myself, take pity and hand me one?
If I'm missing something here that will get me a prize if I do make a list please enlighten me!

Not so much a prize.
But dreams are what makes life tolerable.

70 on mine, many of which are rare/unusual or novelty pins. When I discover a new or intriguing pin, it always gets added to my wish list. But I really only have a dozen or so pins that I would really jump on if they surfaced today. I've been fortunate to find many of my coveted of the novelty pins thus far. 
Have 14 on there now, but like others have said I consider this more of a general interest list. There are A LOT of games that I'm interested in, but there are probably 3-5 that I'm actively researching and actually considering.
I have more than a few on my wishlist, but I think there is only 1 game for me to purchase this year.
AC/DC Premium/ Luci.
There are really only a few others that I'd go ga-ga for. And if others come along from that list... great!

I believe some people list numerous pins on their wish list even though they would not intend to purchase all of them, because they'd be interested in whichever of them turned up first in their area at a decent price.
On the other hand, I would only list games that I was definitely planning to (or hoping to) get at some point. My wish list is empty now, since I'm already out of space. As much as I like The Shadow, Indy500, LOTR and a few others, I don't like them enough to bump any of the 12 games in my pinball room, so there is no point in putting any of them on a wish list.
Quoted from centerflank:One game, the most majestical game ever made.
Lol, you are a zero.
I always thought the wish list was the games you want but don't have the money or space for it
And all of them on their are fairly expensive right now
Quoted from Pinballgeek:I thought the wish list was games you want but don't have the money or space for.
Why have them on a wish list if you're never going to get any of them?
On pinside? None. It's funny, I'm like the youngest "old school RGP" collector. I don't like publicly saying what I'm looking for because I'd rather it fall into my lap. My good friends know exactly what I'm looking for.
So, without naming names, there are two machines that I'm actively looking for (AKA that others that I know also know I'm looking for, and I expect I'll eventually find something). There are two other machines that I would entertain if they pop up nearby, but I'm not sending out feelers for. And, there are a couple others that if they were around, I'd check out but maybe not buy.
I am W-A-Y overcapacity. in 2007, I sat down and wrote a list where I named about 30 pins that I would like to own, looked at pricing for them, and then shaved a couple hundred off each of them and said those were my, "Yup, I'll buy" prices. Of that list, I dropped two off because I found out gameplay issues that bothered me. Everything else I got, with the exception of those two games that I have feelers out on right now.
I'm really lucky like that. I just need a place to put them up better. With any luck, that will start to happen within the next two years.
Quoted from littlecammi:Why have them on a wish list if you're never going to get any of them?
But eventually the time may come
Quoted from goatdan:On pinside? None. I don't like publicly saying what I'm looking for because I'd rather it fall into my lap.
A good friend of mine would not tell anyone he was even looking for another pin, let alone which one he was looking for. I don't know if he thought one of his friends would also want it then (and possibly get it before him - he likes being the only one of us to own something), or if he thinks it reflects badly on him if we know he wants something that he doesn't have. I remember after he got TOTAN he admitted that it was a must have game for him and he'd wanted it for a long time. I'd rather that my friends know if I am looking for a specific game, so they can let me know if they hear about one.
