Billy, listen up. You have what it takes to enjoy your game, you just don't know it yet. You have the cojones, trust me. Life is short. Just think about your own mortality and the price you would put on it (which is more expensive than BBB), and now realize how many hamburgers and french fries and beer you ingested. If you can damage your body like the rest of us, you can damage your BBB.
Just look at the bigger picture and realize that your going to die like everyone else, and when you're finally dead, I have a feeling that this machine will ironically still be working (seeing that it's not made of fragile flesh).
Muster the courage, it is the only way. 19 games is just too little.
If you need the money, then sell some of your other pins. From reading your posts I can sense that BBB is more important to you than all your Sterns combined. Am I wrong for thinking this? Isn't there a time in life to be bold? Because this is one of those times...
Or you can sell it now while the price is high and buy the cheaper remake next year, heheh
