Quoted from Purdue:It has major lastability.
In a home collection, this is what I’m looking for - lastability - games that will sit as art pieces when not being played and when played, provide that magic I’ve come to love with the hobby.
We’re lucky enough to have this one, purchased early on, sitting in the music room aside WOz - two beautiful widebodies that compliment a room of art. Not many rooms in the house and the music room is what some would have considered the living room. We’ve turned it into a room where we make music and appreciate art/music - and pinball. While most people who enjoy that room play with the instruments, when the machines get turned on, friends (both adults and kids) gravitate towards JJPPOTC. If all machines throughout the house get introduced to someone - they most often end up wanting to play JJPPOTC.
Myself, I enjoy splitting time on all of the home machines, and occasionally I’ll venture out to locations to try something new. But adorning the house with pinball masterpieces of art that I can play is my preference.
I think that those pinheads with similar tastes/values (demand) combined with the low availability (supply), and in my opinion, the tremendously fun gameplay that JJPPOTC provides via its amazing package of mechs/toys, audio and visuals are some reasons for its current market value.
