Good evening everybody! Looking to get a gut check on advice. I have room in my house for 3 pinballs. I have a Met Pro and MMr Standard Edition (2017 run). I'm getting a GZ Premium delivered next week and need to make room -- I'm giving strong consideration to selling the MMr because (a) it's probably an 8.5-9.0/10 versus the Met Pro being a 7.0-7.5/10 in terms of condition (both play flawless, this is all cosmetic) and right now the MMr is probably at an all time high for value. I also find Met to be a more challenging and dynamic machine in terms of gameplay, though MMr has a lot of pluses regarding humor and the castle is a strong asset to the game. Bottom line -- am I crazy for leaning to sell MMr instead of Metallica? Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

Easy, sell fish tales.

I came for the poll.

Ha! I understand that, but I have put a lot of sweat equity into getting that machine working, and emotional attachment to it than the others. There's a fair chance I'll be buried in that cabinet.

There's a lot of clubs I've been to where I said the exact same thing -- but I'll add one anyway.

I added a poll, please don't dance around it and demand dollar bills.

Then in that case I’d have to go with MMr. Fun game but Metallica has great music and much more intense. I’m a big Metallica fan so I may be biased.

I bet you could cram 4 in there.

I'd sell the one you don't like as much, if it was me I'd sell FT all day then MM.

F FT is the current consensus

Sell MMr.

Met Pro just plays better to me. I like inline drops and the metal ramps. Themes are a coin flip.

FT I wouldn't sell and it would probably get the most play from me if I owned those 3 games.

Yep, I’d sell FT before MMr or MET pro.

Find a way to fit 4. You can do it, you just aren't thinking creatively enough.

Keep them all. Fold one up and store it somewhere and swap it with another every year.

I was "out of room" 3 games ago. Hold my beer...

Sell mmr now and rebuy next run if you regret it.

I was in a similar situation. Sold MMr LE and not one regret.
Met is bolted to the floor! Met pro is the complete package.

Chopping wood in MMR is more fun than chopping wood in met.

That said, sell FT.

definitely keep the FT

Sell both and buy a EHOH. Hell of fun table, almost as fun as GZ.
