For me it's my TZ I love everything about it sounds music artwork (playfield and backglass) plus it's such a fun game.

#2 10 years ago

Shadow

#3 10 years ago

My last game to go would be Shadow. And prior to that, Doctor Who, because my son and I spent a year together restoring it.

#4 10 years ago

Creature -- Love the theme, artwork, music, gameplay. the ramps feel so good when you hit them. That weird thrill you get in your stomach when the ball just glides up that ramp. what's that called anyway??

#5 10 years ago

My minty CC'd TZ… Love it allot..

#6 10 years ago

BSD ...................................... bought it on Oct 28th 2009 from brother member Robertme

Here's a recent thread on the same topic to tie the two threads together:

http://pinside.com/pinball/forum/topic/what-would-be-the-last-game-to-leave-your-collection

My grail is unchanged:

TRON LE.

#8 10 years ago

TAF One of my first games, timeless, and daughters were amazed when younger seeing the hand come out. Good memories.

#9 10 years ago

Tough one....I'll give the last 3; Gtb Spiderman, Black Hole, ST:TNG
Steve

probably the shadow

I guess it depends on the metallica code

#11 10 years ago

Never say never, but I plan on always have a TRON in one form or another. I love the theme so much, and it doesn't hurt that it's a great game...

#12 10 years ago

Luci!

#13 10 years ago

Tron LE, i'm whipped.

#14 10 years ago

STLE, unless a superior Star Trek gets made in the future but for now best pin I've ever played.

#15 10 years ago

I thought it was LOTR LE,but I just sold it

#16 10 years ago
#18 10 years ago

I'd never say 'no matter what', but I'm guessing Road Show would fit the bill in this scenario.

#19 10 years ago

Mata Hari, but I hesitate to say never. I am a modern pin guy, but MH was my first, it has a new playfield in it, and it fits under the beam in my basement, unlike newer games.

#20 10 years ago

Man I need to find a Shadow to play... I've never even seen one in person

#21 10 years ago

Missing out my friend...it's the only game I regret selling.

it's pretty fun. i dig pins with multi-level playfields... and this pin has 1.
we have one in the wild here in Austin that is in good shape.
also, can have a pretty long play time, even with my wimpy pin skills.

#24 10 years ago

EATPM. Brought her back from the dead, and will never let her go. Wife even agrees

#25 10 years ago

Monster Bash for me. It is being restored and should look amazing when finished. I love the game, and have a lot of money invested in it as well. I can understand why anyone would say the Shadow. I enjoy it a lot.

#26 10 years ago

TSPP owned it sold it bought it a second time will never leave again .

#27 10 years ago

It would be very hard to pick just one... If I had to right now, It would be SST. I have fun beating that machine around...

#28 10 years ago

Centaur my future coffin or urn. Haven't decided.

#29 10 years ago

Tron/BSD...don't plan on ever selling them. But for the right price, you never know haha...

Gorgeous unfaded BSD, asking 10k? Any takers...

#30 10 years ago

I love my Tron as well. Great game.

#31 10 years ago

Tmnt had it since 8th grade!

STTNG, but RBION is climbing the charts fast too.

#35 10 years ago

Taf

#36 10 years ago

Super Orbit....ive had it since i was 6....no way its going any where.

#37 10 years ago

I know I'll catch some flack for saying this, I do have some great machines but my Fish Tales will stay with me to the end....

#38 10 years ago

I would have trouble parting with just about anything that's left in my collection besides my RFM. I know no matter what my Tron, BSD, TAF, FH, and MM will never leave no matter what. As much as I'd like to change it up with some new games I can't bring myself to part with anything in my collection these days unless there was an offer so high that I would be an idiot to pass it up and even then I'd probably be reluctant to part with anything.

#39 10 years ago

Hard to part with Scared Stiff.....

#40 10 years ago

Black Knight.
I looked at a lot of junkers before paying silly money for one NIB.
Steve played it and he likes it.

God no, don't let her go..

#42 10 years ago

It would take a LOT of dough for that to happen...

#43 10 years ago

Indiana Jones Williams

#44 10 years ago

Whitewater.. first game I had and still love it.

#45 10 years ago

AC/DC

#46 10 years ago

Jackbot and Bride of Pinbot, the latter is what lured me into the hobby and was my first machine.

#47 10 years ago

Was EBD. Now it's gone. WTF was I thinking

#48 10 years ago

The Shadow, but that's probably not a real surprise to anyone by now.

Quoted from Concretehardt:

Man I need to find a Shadow to play... I've never even seen one in person

Heh, ironically mine came from Eugene, sorry! There's a reason you see it listed several times in this thread, people like Lyman wax on about it, it's just a special game in a lot of ways. Not for everyone, and it's not an easy game, but nothing else quite like it.

I think the Baldwin thing just hung like a weight around its neck. When I did my translite I had people PM me to say they bought a Shadow because of it, which is obviously flattering, but really does speak to how the original translite held it back. The rest of the theme is great, it's one of my favs not just in general but for the callouts and music too.

#49 10 years ago

Tough question.

Right now my answer is Johnny. Can't get enough of that game.
