    I tend to disagree with the more is better idea.

    Would you rather have XBOX 360 with Halo, or a PSone with Bubsy, Rascal Racers and Casper?!!!

    Buy one great game. For just under 3 K there are loads to choose from. Avoid the "Top 20" list and you have 100 titles to choose from that will be tons of fun. If you can stomach a little more, you may be able to find a used MET or ACDC pro that would be an awesome pin that will have serious staying power.

    If you want to go older. I see BSD is on your wish list. You should be able to find one in great players condition for around $2500-$2800. Maybe less.

    The others on your wish list are more collectable pins, though rarely because they're "better". There are lots of gems that don't make the ratings lottery.

    Try The Shadow or Goldeneye. Good luck with your decision. Lots of great help here on Pinside whichever way you go.
