Maybe it’s because I’m in California, but it is really difficult to find a game that isn’t beat up or 50 years old under $3000. My recommendation is to attend a pinball show (I believe they hold one in PA) and get familiar with a variety of games. This way, you’ll know for sure what you really enjoy and your family will let you know what they enjoy as well. Pinball is very personal and people vary widely on the machines that they prefer. I would go for one in full working condition for your first pin. Good luck!!
