There's a ton of GnRs out there.. period. Of course they will continue to exchange hands. AND they are still making them. Beautiful game, ok play.. still can't get over who is represented as GnR on the game. Original footage, videos, etc would have been epic. Instead we get carrot top on steroids, and band members that I dont know. There are fans that say bolted to the floor, others that could care less. I think the sale prices speak volumes as to what the masses feel about the game. Compare the original sales price to current prices that other titles are getting. I think you'll see that GnR settled in much like other pins have. But as far as investment or value GnR is no better than many other Stern or JJP titles. What does that mean? GnR is a pretty pinball game with cool lights that's worth 9500-10500 and 11500 nib. Those #s allow you to buy just about any other pin out there. Buy it, play it, sell it, or keep it. Whoever wants one has one or can buy it.. but not sure anyone cares anymore. Newsflash.. GnR is NOT the grail pin everyone tried to make. The pinball community has spoken.

Quoted from greeneye:

We can’t all age as gracefully as you and stay forever young. I also appreciate you speaking for the entire “community”

By "community" i mean resale value, ratings, and general consensus. Another.. let's just take a sentence or two out of text and point it out. I am a GnR fan.. Appetite, GnR lies, and can stomach some use your illusion. Thats my GnR. Probably right about growing old gracefully.. Im doing pretty well. Take care of myself. I also didnt lose my Fn mind over this relatively uninspired (from a game play/flow standpoint) GnR jukebox with light show. Not impressed with JJP quality either. But people give JJP a pass. I get an email once a week about GnRs for sale nib. Not exactly jumping off the shelf for the best game of all time. You remember right. The release drama.. grown ass men crying about not getting their CE. Not trying to ruin your childhood or teenage years, but GnR ship has sailed.. your toy story will arrive shortly and IF you dare, Stern made a pretty cool Godzilla you can check out. I do laugh that vulgar language, naked women and the like inspires some of you guys to buy stuff.

Quoted from Jack8765:

To each their own, but here is a partial list of games that have come and gone with no regrets while GNR has stayed put: AIQ LE, TBL, HEP TZ, HEP TAF, HEP TOM, BKSOR LE, and perhaps least regrets GB. GNR is harder to set up than most pins I’ve owned, and the depth of rules are challenging to master, but that keeps it new. It is a bit MB heavy, but I would think an eventual code update could help there. It’s a keeper. Supply keeping it approachable for new buyers not the worst thing.

Wheres GZ, IM, DP, STh, AFM, JP? All those titles are better than the ones you listed.. including GnR. But like you said.. to each their own. It IS a beautiful game though. Artwork and lights are insanely cool.

Speechless I guess I’ve done my job then?

Don't worry.. it is expected from someone from Ann Arbor, MI
