Quoted from Ika:I'd keep WH20. more things to do, more modern rules, still a tough game, dmd animations really add to the atmosphere and it is worth more.
Agreed ^^^^^^^^^
Quoted from WeirPinball:Both - get rid of something else
Agree
I wouldn't get rid of either. White Water is great and is increasingly hard to find in good condition. Whirlwind is an absolute classic, part of one of the best eras in pinball, and really hard to find in decent condition. You'll regret both.

Agree with this! But if it's one of those two, I would move the Whitewater

I have owned both and kept WW. Not even a question in my mind. WH20 moved along in just a few months. I enjoyed Wh20 but Whirlwind is a better overall game.
I will play WH20 in the wild but don't miss it. WW is never leaving. The best part is that WW is cheaper. Use the extra cash for another Sys11. 
It seems that it's harder to advise someone on what to get rid of than it is to recommend buying "Pin A" over "Pin B".
But it really comes down to which you like more, not what other people think you should keep for various reasons.
I would keep WhirlWind.
I think that while white water has more initial appeal, that Whrilwind is the better game in the long run.
Of course I am biased as WhirlWind is one of my favorites since I played it back in the day.
As others have noted it really comes down to your personal preference.
It's a good problem to have! 
Keep WW.....I'd like to own one someday but I have no interest in owning a Wh2o. I mean it has a blowing fan as a topper!!!
If I had that choice and $ weren't an issue, I'd keep Whirlwind. In the ling run, far more interesting to play. However, as others have noted, I'd get rid of other games in your collection before Whitewater.
Quoted from dsuperbee:I have both a WW and a WH2O. I am looking to pare down the collection by 1 game, and neither of those are on the block. I like them both. If I were you, I would get rid of Safecracker. I am babysitting one right now, and it just doesn't do anything for me. The novelty wore off quickly.
The safe cracker is one I often play for a change of pace. Each Pinball has something that grabs me depending on my mood. Tron, the sound and speed. Woz, the light show, LAH is just an all round brilliant machine and has it all for me. Two machines I regret moving...Dr Who and F14. Sigh I need more space.
I would love to...Sold the creature after 5 years, the Jurassic Park, Dr Who, BOP and the list goes on. Have space for 7-10 only at home and then they are friends houses for storage.
