    Bought a Gottlieb Genesis in 2011 for $100. I was living in college dorms at the time, but couldn't pass up the deal knowing I'd never see another $100 solid state machine. Put it in storage for 7 years while I bounced around university housing and a couple "townie" apartments until my then-fiance and I could buy a house. Once we got the house, I moved Genesis out of storage and got to work. Cleaned up some hacks, did the usual ground mods, and it ran great until literally yesterday - right flipper ain't flipping at the moment. I'm sure it's an easy fix.

    The guy I bought it from is the dad of one of my still-close college buds. I wound up buying his Gorgar about a year and a half ago too. Gorgar is fixed up and working, but it would probably go first if I had to pick between Genesis and it! Genesis isn't going anywhere any time soon!
