I would just keep the rest in storage, and rotate your games. Limiting yourself to five machines out of 1000s is quite difficult.

You reach a point where it is not necessarily about income or space, but diversity. Games like AFM, MM, MB, CV, ToM, and TOTAN, all are essentially similiar games, with similiar features.
CFTBL offers uniqueness as do Zaccaria titles.

I can say games like EBD, Genie, Circus, and Flash Gordon are hard to beat for longevity.

Speaking from perspective of an owner of many past games.

I would pick five, and put the rest in storage.
Rotate as needed or what suits your interest.
It is harder to find games a second, third, or fourth time.
In some cases, nearly impossible if they are prototype, sample, or very low production.
