So guys, I'm a huge huge fan of the DW pin. Oddly enough I've never seen the show. I am getting a pretty nice one, but am embarrassed about the price I'm going to have to pay for this. So, I figured from people that have played both, which would you rather own? A TMNT pro or a DW?

Definitely checkout the YouTube Videos on both pins to see how they play. There are also dedicated threads on Pinside for each game so worth reviewing those as well to get familiar with them. I have a Dr Who and it is an excellent machine. I've heard that TMNT is also a fun game but that theme wasn't for me.

I've already played and owned DW before. That's why I'm excited to get it. But I figured I'd get some other opinions.

Love DW. Sold it 3 times and always go back and get another. Great shooter and a must have candidate for a color LCD.

No question: TMNT Pro over DW. Better theme, better looking, better rules, better challenge, better game

Would you say they're both about a B+?

I’ve owned a DW. I do miss it. However, TMNT is on a different level. Both games have a one more game feel to them and are great. IMHO = DW B+, TMNT -A.

Matt Smith is insufferable and his season is unwatchable.
Luckily the pin features only the “original” doctors from the OG run, so that’s a plus. Although Tennant was the most likable and would be a cool addition. The Dalek topper is awesome and the Time Expander is really really cool, but those are the gimmicks that keep that pin popular. I never found it to be a very fun game.

See, I think this has helped me. I absolutely love the game. Live sonic booms, spelling WHO and that damn side ramp. Can't get enough.

Not played turtles, but figured I'd ask what people think. Thank you all.

I just got a TNMT premium and am kind of blown away by how fun it is to shoot. It makes others games feel lame. It's brutally hard though so be ready for that if you choose it.
