    I actually do this for part of my business . I live near Disney world and put arcades into luxury vacation rental homes . Out of the list I would recommend the , StarTrek pro , Iron man or the Family guy set with the adult settings off . These 3 games would attract all ages and are newer . They also have minimal parts to break or go wrong . I would add LEDs if not already to keep down on heat and power and also have a small sticker or sigh that says to turn off if anything seems wrong . I do a lot of service on pins and arcades and the newer Sterns hold up well . If you have any questions please feel free to get ahold of me . Good luck

    I think that Ripleys is a great great pin for a vacation home . It has deep rules for the player and has a good overall theme. I have put a few Ripleys , a shrek , Star Trek le , woz rr , demo man , Pirates and a nascar into the houses . Pirates is a good one . I did a complete shop job on a pirates over a year ago and the only thing I've had to fix was a broken sling rubber and shooter tip along with the trough opto boards . Other than that it's been a champ . I would buy something that you don't have in York own collection or buy something you want for you and then put one of your less played games into the house . If you want an arcade to go with it I would recommend a arcade legends 3 or a multicade . If you need one I can get those as well . They are reliable and fir in well for the older players .

    I forgot I also just put 4 new pins into a home . Wwe ,walking dead , kiss and Metallica .. Along with 14 arcade games . I'll see how well each one holds up in the next 6 months once the house is ready to rent .

    STTNG has way to many issues that could go wrong unless you have one that's been gone through and bullet proofed . I only say this out of experience I've shopped and fixed at least 3 of them and as much as I love it it has a ton of things to go wrong . Just my two cents
