I'm gonna take some flack for this but The Addams Family. I don't like the rules or the geometry of the game. The mechs are cool but that's about where I get off the hype train. Another two games that look nice but are absolute dogs are Dr. Dude and Party Zone. I choose to walk right by whenever I see either of them.

I hate Jpops "pretty but shitty" pin such as ToTAN and CV. These games are all style over substance and are among the worst pins B/W made in the 90's. They look like works of art so the collector market is crazy for these dogs. Do you guys wanna know why you don't like WCS? Why it's because Jpops greasy hair is all over this game too (even though he needed hand holding the whole time). Unlike many of you, I actually watch and enjoy soccer (Everton fan unfortunately), but I don't like the game either. A goalie that blocks shots, sounds awesome on paper but it's just frustrating and tedious. An orbit that is designed to hit the left sling WTF? Steep ramps that are tough to flow with. Stupid awards. An impossibly dangerous and poorly designed scoop. A pointless Magna save, and rules that get boring the third time you play it. Oh and the dog, Striker, sucks ass.

Quoted from chalkup8:

He he. . and your collection consists of ?

I collect mostly em and solid states and rotate a lot. Right now, Meteor, Paragon, Pinbot, Night Rider ( I drive a truck for a living), Hoops, Genesis. Probably trade a couple shortly. Really want a Stars and Robowar and would like a Joker Poker or a Whirlwind back eventually.

Quoted from Warzard:

Another JPOP hate drama. I know a lot of pin collectors which start by playing CV and totan ans loved it and start their interest from here.
Everyone can like red and hate blue, sure but the argumentation on the designer, get past it: change hobby, you might feel better. This is amusement games here. Who cares with the guy and yes those pins looks great and a lot of them are stuck in collectors house and played believe it or not.

This is a HATE thread buddy. Sorry I got your panties in a twist but there is no judgement here. I don't care if YOU like them, I just don't. If you think they are the greatest games ever, more power to you, it's only MY opinion and you don't have to go nuts when people don't agree with you. I'm glad you found something to make you happy, the games that I like ( early SS) are typically cheap and many people bad mouth them as not being "deep enough" but it's what I like so that's good enough for me. Hope this explains my point. Best of luck to you. Happy hunting, on your pinball journey!

I hate this sample and prototype crap. Unless it's a game that never made it to production, I just can't get behind it and don't see much value. Sorry bud but that TZ is worth 6500 not 65000.

Quoted from newovad:

I hate when people tell me to join a league.
Sage veteran: "Join a pinball league and meet other people in your area that play."
Me: "There is one routed machine in my town."
Everyone I talk to you around here about pinball look confused because they don't realize it is still a thing.
Perhaps I should just hang out by that one machine and wait for someone that uses one flipper at a time and knows the machine's rules.
I also hate hanging out in bars creeping on people that might like pinball.

Amen brother! I live in a fairly large town "area". We have the triple A Yankees team, Penguins AHL, casinos, arenas, but we have a few bowling alleys that don't even have a pin each. A truck stop, with a Stern PoTC, Family Guy that is filthy, left upper flipper and the sound doesn't work, and a Sopranos where the left flipper is dead and goes straight to tilt if you breathe on the thing. If I had the coin I would love to open a barcade by one of the dozen or so colleges around here.

I hate that Stern thinks we are stupid and cuts costs at every turn, charges more for less, and thinks we should thank them for the privilege. How about a one game boycott (never happen) for them to get their shit together? I think they make very fun pins but anyone can see quality is going down the tubes and don't get me started on node boards.
