I'm 49 and grew up playing EMs. One of the things I remember loving the most was the sounds; not the chimes, the clicking of the steppers, score reels and such. My favorites were the '70s era Gottliebs; something about the cadence of the steppers just sounded cool to me. It's a topic for another thread, but someday, I'd like to get a Target Alpha or something else in that ilk for a keeper.
In the mean time, I'll keep playing the Star Trek Pro we have at work; it's set on free play, how can I resist?
