7. Royal Guard
8. Abra Ca Dabra
9. Surfers
10. Ding Dong

1) Spanish Eyes

LOL, bet you agonized over that decision, huh?

1 old Chicago
2 atlantis

Definitely space odyssey is my number one...

Gottlieb Capt Card

Bally Space Time

Joker Poker

Gottlieb Abra Ca Dabra

These are my favorites out of the EMs Ive played and owned.

Wizard! (My favorite childhood game)
Volley
Atlantis
Sing Along
Ding Dong
Sky Jump
Bank A Ball
Dodge City
Top Card
Spin Out
Bowling Queen
2001 ( never played this game before, playfield being installed. Should move way up when complete)
Road Race ( In storage, never played it)

Just Counting current up and running collection. Just sold Bally Quarterback or it would be close to the top.

Volley
2001
Quick Draw
Centigrade 37
Twin Win
Atlantis
Paradise
Abra Ca Dabra (great game but never really clicked for me)
Buccaneer

Let me know when you want to sell or trade the Dodge City.

I can tell you "Road Race" will remain at the bottom of your list even after you've played it!

Atlantis
Volley
Grand Prix
Centigrade 37
Mata Hari

I think I did get it working. No instruction card so I didn't know how it was supposed to play. Not impressed, put it in storage.

The EM version?

1. 2001
2. Royal Flush
3. Cleopatra
4. Captain Fantastic
5. Swing Along
6. Hollywood

Cleopatra used to kinda bum me out, as I didn’t originally like the super symmetrical layout, but it’s really grown on me, and it’s slowly climbing the ranks.

Swing along and Hollywood are kinda butt cheeks no matter how you look at it, imho.

Jungle queen
Grand Prix
Odds and Evens

This is difficult.

1) Bank Shot
2) Free fall
3) Freedom
4) Melody
5) Bowling Queen
6) Saratoga
7) Target Alpha
8 ) 300
9) Triple Action

EM version? My brother owned one briefly. It's a great player.

Where's your list, Joe ?

E.

Yup. I snagged a really nice EM copy last year on the letgo app super cheap. I pretty much only bought it for the apparent “rarity” aspect, but as I’ve owned it, I’ve grown to appreciate it more now than I did when I first bought it. It really is a good player.

1) Triple Strike
2) River Boat
3) Big Deal
4) Gulfstream
5) Strato-Flite
6) Paddock
7) Aztec
(I have a love/hate relationship with my Aztec, so it will always be last, but never sold.)

I enjoy them all. "Pleasure Isle" would probably be at the top of my list though.

Atlantis
Sing Along/ KOD
Sky Jump

I love my Paradise. The reason it wasn't higher on my list is because the kick out holes are such an important shot in the game and hitting them is completely, 100% luck! Good thing for pinball that Roger Sharpe didn't drag this game into the NY City council and say "watch me hit the B-hole to collect the 100x multiplier".

1. Atlantis

2. Lucky Ace
3. Space Mission tied with Little Chief

I recently bough the three 70s Williams games from a friend. I'm a 60s fan for the most part but they are all pretty good. I can't stop playing the Lucky Ace though. I think the art must sway the ratings on this one because it is addictively fun.

I like 'em all but if I had to choose.
1. C37
2. Royal Flush
3. Big Hit
4. Volley
5. Target Alpha

gi (resized).jpg

1. 8-Ball (1966 Williams) - Fun for 1, but REALLY fun for 2.
2. Beat The Clock (1963 Williams) - Brutal gaps between the 4 flippers
3. Fast Draw - Love threading the ball through the gap between the drop targets and pop bumpers to hit a lit bonus target up top
4. Ship Ahoy - Not easy to lite all 11 numbers
5. Gold Strike - Fun, but add a ball game play can lead to marathon games.
6. Straight Shooter - I need to work on the flipper buttons, kinda stiff and not real responsive - makes for frustration. I think I would like it more if I could resolve this
7. Sky Jump - Really like the artwork

1. GRAND CHAMPION (1953 Williams)
2. Paul Bunyan (1968 Gottlieb)
3. Palooka (1964 Williams)
4. UTAH (1949 United)
5. Jack in the Box (1973 Gottlieb)

Current:

Argosy - this game is just killer and you all know it

Dimension - it rules. Drops and small flippers with inlanes

Jungle queen - so much fun always something to shoot for

2001 - rad. Don’t like artwork or rules as much as dimension

Wonderland - just a gorgeous game and fun for a woodrail.

Grand Prix - find this one a little overrated. Yeah it’s fun to rip the spinners but what else ya got?!

1) Teacher's Pet
2) El Dorado
Sorry, but I only have two...............right now.

1. Klondike. I never get tired of its quirky, unpredictable play, I consider it a "Modern" EM
2. Out Of Sight I look forward to playing this since a major re-furb even with a few scoring anomalies. Not tired yet.
3. Spin A Card A fair Poker machine, rare,and fun if I'm in the right mood. Kinda tired of scoring doesn't really count. On the replacement list.

Quality over quantity - nice collection!
