Why trade one awesome game for 2 terrible games? SMH

Now 7 said yes and 7 said no

I would make the trade. 2 classic b/w 90's pins for 1 Stern makes sense to me. I think tspp is good but not great, it seemed like I was always just shooting the upper playfield most of the time. I have had all three and sold tspp and fs but still have the rfm and will probably never get rid of it (it fits in a space where a full size pin will not and its my daughter's fave). There is a lot of great modes on rfm and very popular with guests and flintstones is a decent pin as well.

RFM is an ok game #58 on top 100. But it gets old quick.
Flintstones is a turd.
Tspp was in the top 5 for a long time.
Now in the #21 spot. But only because of new games being rated. I'd say it still should be in the top 10.

Don't do it! Way better games out there. There's a reason someone wants to trade 2 for 1. For them, it's a great deal. For you, not so much. Other than you now have 2 pins 1/4 as good as Tspp.

TSPP is a great game with a lot of depth that calls to play it more. I can understand how you got tired of it in time, but in that case I would trade it for an equally good game. RFM doesn't have much and Flintsones just suck, so I don't see the point of doing that trade.

#10 4 years ago

Had an rfm and didnt enjoy it except the animations.

#11 4 years ago

Love RFM... but it needs to be running perfectly to be great. RFM isn’t for everyone ... you really got to know if you like it before you make the deal.

If it were me ... and I am a huge RFM fan... I would not. FS doesn’t sweeten the deal for me here either. TSPP just is way more pinball than either of them.

Always be trying to get the games you like regardless. Someone’s opinion is not all that critical here...and you will always get a mixed bag of opinions.

#12 4 years ago

I wouldn't get rid of your TSPP for those games. I think RFM is really lame and I haven't played the Flintstones but I know it's not an equal trade for TSPP.

#13 4 years ago

Thanks I’m hearing all opinions

#14 4 years ago

Tspp is a good machine that you can get better trade value out of than those 2 machines. Tspp is very sought after an not that easy to find an still demand good money, the others not so much.

#15 4 years ago

TSPP offers more playability

My 0.2

I have owned all three

TSPP still here

#16 4 years ago

TSPP is the only one of those three I could even bear to own.

But after about a week, I couldn't bear to listen to it anymore. It had to go.

Super exclusive ad from the Pinside Marketplace!

Doh Frenzy is great! For about one time.

#20 4 years ago

I must be the only one who would choose RFM over TSPP. But I'm not a fan of Flintstones.
I bought RFM NIB and liked it so much I bought SW:E1 NIB just to own both P2K games.
(SW:E1 is not a good game, but I'm still glad to have perfect examples of both P2K games.)

What ?? The calls in The Simpsons are among the best ever. Original voices, perfectly in the context and very Simpsonians.

When Simpsons first came out I thought the sound was too disconnected with everything going on at once. Years later I mentioned that to my wife and she commented that the Simpsons show is like a collection of sound bites, so it fits.

I thought about it, agreed with her, and it no longer bothers me.

#23 4 years ago

I'd pass personally.

There is only one thing and one thing only good about FS... that bowling alley strike sound... god is that the best sample... but that is it.

One reason FS is so turdtastic is the fact that the movie, (it was based on a live action take on FS, right?),well, it went beyond the standard setting of “suck” on the old Kirby Vacuum Scale of Suck... it pushed the limits of the known physical laws of nature in its ability to remove air from an enclosed space. Rosie O'Donnell as Betty Ruble was a stretch and not just one in her wooly mamoth g string costume, but a jarring, nightmare inducing affront to my innocent adolescent addoration of Betty... let’s face it, Betty was the looker, Wilma made you think of your mother (Eww...)

RFM is a whistle stop on the road to innovation in pinball that probably could have been skipped if the conductor hadn’t looked at all the designers at B/W and said, “lets give you guys one more shot at saving pinball”, then pulled the coupler on the locamotive and left them dead on the tracks to fend for themselves. Shame it was the last Bally pinball table ever made, and a sad note to end an amazing run. That said, I have seen more RFM with a “sorry, it’s broke” sign taped to it than I have found working versions of the game on location over the years.

Keep TSPP would be my vote.

This like one of those dumb fantasy sports trades where someone tries to pawn two mediocre players off for a good one... pass

Hey guys, should I trade my Tesla Roadster for a 1984 Dodge Omni and a Kia Sorrento?

#29 4 years ago

Like them or not RFM and FS have decent value and could add up to a good trade for TSPP. I don't keep up with prices on these games so not really sure how the numbers adds up. I might be in minority but I like FS. I don't care that it's based on a bad movie. It's just fun to play but probably not a game you would keep for a long time. RFM is similar. There is fun to be had but not really a fan of the pin2k concept. That said, I would rather have TSPP since it's has deeper code and better theme. That said, if you are done with it and looking for something else then getting two decent games for it might be a good for you. I think you would do better selling TSPP for top dollar and then buying one great game that you really want.

#30 4 years ago

Thanks for your opinion,I was looking for make the deal,but after reading your opinions You guys have reason,Simpson’s is a very good machine and I’ll be waiting for better machines to trade

#31 4 years ago

FS with the newer translite is pretty good.
Rosie ruined the movie and the game.

This is the right answer OP. Don't trade TSPP.
