    Buy what people in your local leagues play.
    Buy a game title in the last tournament you watched.
    Don't know how to use searches?
    Don't care about tournaments?
    Can't stream stuff at work?
    Then just lick your finger and put it in a light socket... Er, I mean just buy what's listed below. All good games that are not overpriced. If you can't find one of these close to you to buy in person, then just buy TOTAN or Scared Stiff because that's the deal you deserve.

    I'm baffled by this post.

    All the more reason to cast a vote.

    You took some time to compile a vaste list .... but your point ?

    Post endless threads asking 'Should I buy A or B?' and never actually buy any games.

    #6 4 years ago

    A bit of venting but the list is solid for someone looking for a local machine that is fun and not ridiculously priced.

    #7 4 years ago

    You left off Sorcerer.

    I voted for sticking a finger in the light socket, which is winning by about 56% so far.

    For me, in most cases, I did not pick the machine, the machine picked me (and I'm not in Russia).

    Reasonably priced games pop-up every now and then. Buy it, play it. Honestly, not many 'bad' pins out there in my experience...

    So perhaps add the option of:

    "Whatever pops-up nearby for sale"

    #9 4 years ago

    Buy the pin you like to play is not on your poll.
    That's my advice...

    The light socket thing sounds positively electrifying.

    Quoted from pinzrfun:

    You left off Sorcerer.

    I've had two of them. Not the worst but I just can't justify keeping one of them. Once you learn a specific Sorcerer, you can roll it.
