Quoted from CaptainNeo:

You cannot compare hobbit to EP1,2 and 3. Hobbit is still 1000x's better than that trash emitted from Lucas's anal gland.

Peter Jackson did just as good of a job ruining Hobbit as Lucas did on eps 1-3.

Quoted from PanzerFreak:

Big Bass wheel pro at $10k+ Giant plastic wheel, plastic handle and a 20"+ LCD.

You picked my favorite game.

I love pulling that big handle, there is a lot of satisfaction in the way it moves.

Quoted from smokedog:

A $9K USD machine (11824.60 CAD before 10% tax and shipping), at a 50/50 split ..... I'd be dead before it paid itself off. Well, not dead, but probably in a home somewhere.

Yeah, I keep that math in the back of my head for whenever I get the notion that I'll start routing some pins.

If I buy a NIB machine and pay the stickers and taxes on it to make it legal, let's just say I'm in $7000. At a 50/50 split, there would have to be at least 14,000 dollar plays to get me my investment back. That's not counting any maintenance, wages, insurance, etc.... I figure it's probably closer to 20,000 plays before I'm happy with returns. For argument sake, let's just say it takes 15,000 plays to get me happy with the investment (i.e., make the pin free for me).

If the pin got 150 plays a week, it would take me 100 weeks to get to that break-even point, so basically 2 years to even break even. That's assuming the machine isn't completely wrecked by then.

No thanks.
