Quoted from RobT:I agree with this. As you say, some will last longer than others, but variety is a great thing when it comes to pins.
^^^^ This.
If I were just starting now, I'd make a list of 15 titles I want (which I would try to make by going out and playing them on location, if possible... if not possible, then by watching PAPA videos). Then, I'd start looking for the best deal on any of them.
Once I found it, I'd bring it home, play it 'til I was done... then trade and/or sell for the next one. That could take weeks to a month... to 6 months. Some pins would last longer than others.
Others can't tell you what to like. Just as an example... someone on this thread mentioned SG. I respect that they like the game... but, not me. I couldn't stand it.
Just my 2 cents.
