I have a volley, awesome game. I had an Atlantis next to it, it was a sample game with a horseshoe credit wheel. sold it about 18 months ago, it’s also a great game. Cant believe Atlantis is now fetching $2500, not that rare really. Mata Hari, el dorado, centigrade would be tops on my list along with Grand Prix. Grand Prix used to be like 250-300, now they are $800+. Not sure about some of these other titles, but suspect they’ve risen pretty well.

One thing I worry about is who is going to buy these games down the road. Demand mainly comes from nostalgia and the generation with that nostalgia is getting a lot older.

That’s fine and I agree with you, but some of the fun of buying these games and building a nice collection of maybe 5-10 games for very little money is being taken away by the rise in price. Just a few years ago, a decent Grand Prix could easily be found for $250-300, now look at it.

That’s nice to hear, didn’t realize you younger folks liked EMs like that. For me it is partly nostalgia as my dad had volley, Grand Prix and Atlantis when I was a kid in the mid to late 70s and that opened me up to other EMs, which I enjoy playing today.
