Quoted from TechnicalSteam:Sell the Star Trek LE to me..
One down! 
Quoted from snyper2099:I had a storage unit for a bit and I can tell you that YOU DO NOT WANT ONE!
Also, Spiderman is not as epic as it once was back when it was the latest and greatest game.
LOTR plays way too long. TSPP plays long. STLE is ok but not an epic game compared to other Stern's IMHO.
3 machines I would NEVER even consider buying are MMLE, MBLE, and ACNC.
So there, I solved your problem. 6 less machines to wonder about. As soon as that LOTR is reassembled, dump it.
I just don't understand people. You can always buy ANY machine on your list back from some nice soul sometime in the future or play ANY of them in just about any major city or any major show these days.
You WOULD have some problems with machines that are much harder to replace. I wouldn't worry at all about selling games like those that you've posted. I sold my Tron and was like, "Oh well there it goes. Maybe some day I will buy another."
Most machines in your collection are not there because they are well designed pinball games. I could point out flaws with all of them and why I don't like them but there's just no fun in that any more.
Ten years ago there was no where to play this stuff. Today, the opportunities to play just about any game you want at any time are essentially endless. It's beginning to change the veteran collectors and players and in time, you will see the way as well.
Some parts of the country/world don't have those luxuries.
Quoted from Zablon:Some parts of the country/world don't have those luxuries.
So travel or move to a place that does. You either like pinball or you don't. 
Obviously you must have more room somewhere...possibly remove the non essentials...Couch, who needs it. Refrigerator, stuff like that.I did check the game room thread but your post was over 2 years so I assume that chair in your gameroom is long gone.

We moved in April 2017 because we needed more room for pinball. So that was probably an old pic of games stuffed in every room of the house. Now we have a proper game room and bar, but the correct sizing of the game room is 12. Can I stuff more, yes but then its untidy and uncomfortable.

Sounds like it’s already time for an expansion project!!
People do all the time!

I would look at it more as what games makes the best, most well rounded collection. I would probably sell one of your 90s fan layouts (MM, AFM, or MB). I'd also probably sell either LOTR or TSPP. Then unless you need the cash by selling another high end machine, I'd sell the Monopoly. If it were my collection I'd sell MMr, TSPP, and Monopoly.
Quoted from jcar302:I always wanted a Simpsons, surprised so many of you guys have it on the shortlist to be sold.
There are not "right" answers here. If that was me I'd be getting rid of the games that seem to most closely overlap with other games in my collection...or the games that have been in my collection the longest.

The stop and go is waaaaay too much, and too often. Thats probably the only thing keeping me personally from enjoying it. Otherwise, it isn't half bad. My son was head over heels for it when we owned it. Great family game if you have young kids
