Hi, I am running out of gameroom real estate and down to the last slot for my pinball collection. I am torn in the choice but would love your inputs.
Curent pinball collection:
Oldies : Baby Pacman (it's an acquired taste) ; Fathom (haggis order)
Williams : #IJTPA ; #TZ ; #STTNG ; #TOM ; #WH20 ; #TOTAN ; #MB ( remake )
jjp: #POTC ; #WOZ ; #HOBBIT
stern : #LOTR
Any Idea?
a nice collection there
everybody else will say a newer Stern
i'd add something from the Williams sys 11 era
Creature from the black lagoon is also fun
or just wait until Hagis remakes Eightball Deluxe (eventually)
I second a modern Stern. EHOH is a great one.
They have a different character in play and rules to give you a more diverse lineup. A sys 11 isn't substantially different than your current Williams machines. JP, IMDN, DP would be great additions too.
People always laugh at band machines, but there isn't anything better than cranking up a Led, Aero, or ACDC really loud and knocking out a few games and beers with friends.
Or go the other direction and get a good EM.
Quoted from etien:Thanks alot, obviously EBD ( remake ), SS et COTBL were on my radar. Spanish Eyes looks fun to me on a virtual pinball, not sure about the lasting power. going to reflect on EHOH and JP. Hard Rock themed pinball may have a low WAF factor in my household. What about GOT LE ?
I prefer the Pro, but it's a fun game either way imo with a few different ways to play.
Thanks Isjack . the Pro looks more empty, but I heard before that is more fun.
EHOH looks similar to MB and MM according to that post :

Something older;
Bally; Fireball, Capt Fantastic, Wizard, Flip-Flop
Gtb: Black Hole, Spiderman, Sinbad, Mars;GOW, Haunted House, Pro Football
Wms: Aztec, Gorgar, Spanish Eyes
So many more.....
IMDN = Iron Maiden
DP = Deadpool
Guess I don't consider Aerosmith a 'hard rock' theme, it's pretty light. The songs are all mainstream, and so are most of Led Zep & ACDC's. They are the first machines people usually play when they walk in my place. people are tired of rock themes, but they get played more heavily than anything else.
Quoted from jeffc:Final pinball in a collection? No such thing.
This. Even if you are out of room just keep playing. You will eventually want something new. When that time comes sell whatever you've been playing the least and keep the machines rotating.

I love Baby Pac-Man, it would be that or WH2O
Great games. Baby Pac when setup correctly is incredibly challenging and fun
Thanks everyone, indeed I could maybe squeeze 2, but one is more ‘reasonable’.
TAF = bit like TZ isn’t it?
Yes my pac baby is up and running on an old screen which is super cool. I understand it is not everyone taste but I must I spent a year of tuition fees in it when I was 14 on location
Not sure about P3, I am all supportive and understand the appeal for limited space allowance, but is isn’t my case and I don’t want to have to setup a game when I am a urge for a play. I already find the jjp boot time borderline
Cactus = i am not keen on guns, I am sure it’s a great pinball but will pass.
Meanwhile read about Jurassic park and it could be appealing
You should get over the thought you are out of room.
Time for creative space allocation .
If you heve burning desire for a new title will find room .

I would add a AFM to the line up.
Not even close
I own both and those are two totally different pins 
Well again thanks for all your inputs. Some of the proposals were well on sight others are new to me.
Spiderman ve : indeed great but somehow similar to mb
Well noted that the TAF is different than the TZ from owners.
Will look at IM , not a fan of AFM , playfield bit empty to me
I agree a punitive pinball is somehow missing ( Potc can be btw )
Current short list: HH EBD TAF SS IM JP
Hehe
