Quoted from silver_spinner:calling it a "hobby" is not accurate.
If you own games and you're more concerned about resale value than your high score, yeah, that ain't a hobby. That's an investment. If you play on location regularly, that's a hobby. Owning a game is not a requirement of the hobby.
Quoted from UvulaBob:I live in Seattle, so there are quite a few Microsoft Millionaires around here keeping prices higher that it looks like the rest of the country gets to enjoy.
Well that changes everything. You live in the location pinball Mecca, the pacific northwest.
Take your time saving up and enjoy the hundreds of games of games you have on location near you in the mean time. Eventually, you'll find something. As I mentioned before, owning a game is not a requirement of the hobby. Many here would love to have as many location games nearby as you have. Hell, I'd settle for having a Shorty's nearby.
