Quoted from kablam0r:Thanks guys! I'll go to the show and see what happens. I have stood up games when i worked at the arcade, however that was years ago and not my machine. I'm hoping to buy one (new or old) and have them balance and check it in front of me.
Don't buy a pin in the hopes that your kids will necessarily take on your enthusiasm and that when you "pass the game on" they'll do anything other than sell it on CL and split the proceeeds.. My two college ads boys had absolutely no interest in my LOTR (first pin) when I bought it several years ago and generally are not into my replacement pin (GOT Premium) either. If your kids get into it, wonderful! But chances are as they get older they'll be more into video games/computer/smartphone games.
