ME? I wouldn't sell Spidey unless I HAD to (and I had to).

ME? I wouldn't sell Spidey unless I was replacing it with Star Trek.

ME? I wouldn't sell Spidey.

My SM is never leaving. My personal #1. Obviously I'm biased. If you're struggling this much with the decision keep it. If its time comes down the road let it go. For now it sounds like your decision is pretty obvious.

I think I would make up my mind on my own. Not trying to be rude, but you are an adult and this isn't a question of what game is better. Not sure what you are hoping to find by asking strangers on the internet?

Well he is asking for opinions, and I wouldn't get rid of SM, I think its the best overall pin Stern has ever done.

SM was strange for me. When I had it I never played it...ever. I sold it to a local collector and got to play it a couple nights ago. I kinda missed it...

Weird missing a game I never played

Normally I would say if you are asking whether or not to sell it, then you probably should. I've seen more than one person buy it twice and sell it twice. However considering you have a track record of regretted sales, maybe hold off until you are 100% sure, especially if not a matter of space or funds.

I've considered selling mine on occasion as well, but ultimately the theme alone makes it stick (for my daughter), and it's a lot of fun in a good sized collection. I also did a full tear down shop job, new ramp, custom LEDs, LED OCD, and it plays so well I'd hate to have to replace it with another and then go through that effort to get another back up to snuff.

Keep it, but change the setup. Open up the outlanes all the way. Go into the settings of the game and change everything. You are not just making the game harder, you are changing the timing that you now know too well. Then shut the game off and put a cover on it with a note to not touch it for one month. At the end of the month flip off the cover and give it three plays. Go just for modes. It will either feel like magic, or it is time to sell it.

That is a great strategy to test out a pin before selling it.

Don't do it......if it's your second go around, there was something that made you want it again....if space or funds truly aren't an issue, I think you would miss it again after it was gone.....I don't play mine as much as I once did, but sometimes, it's just a Spidey night...not selling mine....

Doh! And I forgot, change the pitch as well. If it is floaty make it fast, and if it's fast, make it faster or floatier. It throws off your timing for everything to change the feel of the game.

He's asking for a sounding board. Don't care whether he's an adult or a kid, it's always nice to have a group of people interested in the same hobby, who potentially faced the same type of decision, and get feedback from them. Other than buying and selling, why the hell are we a part of this community if we can't turn to our friends and ask an opinion on a dilemma we're struggling with?

"Not trying to be rude," but I think that was just a stupid comment on your part.......

SM has some of the best code and gameplay to come along. Quite complete and really fun. The game, unless a vault edition comes out, is only staying at its high price in my opinion.

I have never regretted selling a game unless it was HUO and loaded up, as you mentioned, they are hard to come across.

I'd say keep it, stack cash and get another pin as well

I owned one for a couple years.
like the pin - not the theme. If you like both, it's probably a keeper. The callouts got really old for me.
Too many other great games recently to keep buying the same ones you've owned!

Could not agree more. I have had black SM for 3 months. It is nice to look at, but callouts got old quick. Barely getting any plays.

SM is a great pin. Arguably, Stern's 2nd best right behind LoTR and probably Steve Ritchie's best. I grew up watching the original Spiderman (67 to 70, still on tv in reruns), collecting the various Marvel Spiderman comic books (Amazing, Peter Parker, etc.).

I enjoy my BSM. Sure, I may not play it regularly but when I do it always puts a smile on my face.

SM is Sterns best IMO...keep it!!!
