I need your opinion on which game would fit better with my current collection which are MMR,Met prem,Shadow. I've only played each game only handful of times and walked away liking it. BW is huo and rfm is above players condition and priced around the same.

So which one should i pull the trigger on? I couldn't find any new used games for sale at the NW show and my daughter was extremely bummed out.
thanks in advance guys.

TBH; I find the RFM theme to be better.
The comedic banter in the game is quite funny to me.
I'm not a BW fan... but admittedly; I may have only played it at various shows where I couldn't experience all it had to offer.

Both are fun but Baywatch would hold my interest longer. Also, unless the mobo and CRT in RFM has already been upgraded or replaced, I wouldn't touch it with a 10 ft pole.

BW. I played RFM years ago and I didn't like it much. It kinda gave me a headache. BW had some fun shots, prolly would keep my interest longer.

Are you serious about this contest? RFM is by far the better game.

Completely disagree. Owned both, did a ton of work on RFM to bring it back to life and still sold it.

BW is by far the better playing game and long term keeper. RFM is fun to have once but most send it on its way in a short time. Great comedy but aweful long term appeal and the jokes get stale.

BW is a true traditional pinball machine. RFM is an extremely well done one-time (we’ll two time really if you count SWep1) gimmick that grows old fast and never really feels like traditional pinball. I had a very nice RFM for several months, my young kids loved it, I grew bored extremely quickly and just always felt that I’d rather be playing a normal machine. In a large collection RFM is a nice novelty like a Slugfest sort of. But in a small collection it doesn’t have legs. I’d go baywatch for sure on this one.
