I know its not on your list but Hot Wheels is a great playing/looking machine with depth if you want it but you can have a blast with out knowing anything about the game. They come loaded and for now at least are one of the best values to be had.
The JJPs are all amazing games. Although it can be hard to appreciate just how spectacular and rewarding they are when they aren't in your collection. They are a bit pricier but they are more likely to hold their value than any other manufacturer due to their curb appeal, construction quality and surprisingly low production numbers. In essence, at this time, every JJP is a limited edition.
