Thought i would revisit this thread to say I finally understand BSD and why it's rated high. As someone who thought it could be too straightforward with limited shots, I can say it's the game I've had that one more time feeling the most. It's very hard but very fair as well - I never feel like I'm robbed like some other games (GB, etc). As someone who moves games fairly often for something new, who knows what might happen but I definitely now understand why people love this game.
BSD respects MB - making it feel special, has some of the best callouts, effects and theme integration and the shots feel very satisfying. I now understand why people say it's a pinball players pin. Very little "shine" to lure in newbies (as it was pretty much overlooked by all that came over recently although they are all non pinball players). Great game. Appreciate the advice on the thread.
Next on my list could be IM but would need to move my nice shadow for it which I'm not sold on yet. Need to play IM on route first....only other option would be tron (love that game) but waiting on that 2018 vault pin first.
