As I begin the stretch run of completing my garage conversion to a game room, I started thinking about quality versus quantity.
So here is the hypothetical.
You somehow end up on a game show very similar to Wheel Of Fortune from the 80's-90s. You are the big winner and you have $10,000 to spend buying pinballs from their "Pinball Store". You must spend as much of the money as possible at their "Pinball Store". Any balance remaining is donated to your favorite charity. The show will cover the shipping costs to your home.
You have room for up to four pinball machines. The spirit of this game is to choose games that you will keep and play. For the purpose of this game, the games purchased from the "Pinball Store" can never be sold, gifted or exchanged.
All games are nice condition and fully working. Nice condition implies minimal damage to the cabinet and little to zero playfield wear. Newly released games from Stern, JJP and Ben Heck are floor samples, i.e. New but out of box.
These are the choices.
$10,000 - Medieval Madness
$10,000 - Ben Heck's Zombie Adventure (New)
$10,000 - IPB Big Bang Bar
$10,000 - Cactus Canyon
$10,000 - Krull
$10,000 - Capcom Kingpin
$8,000 - Stern Tron LE (NIB)
$7,500 - Stern AC/DC Back In Black LE (New)

$6,500 - Stern Transformer LE (New)
$5,500 - Attack From Mars
$5,500 - Monster Bash
$5,500 - Twilight Zone
$5,500 - Cirqus Voltaire
$5,500 - Stern Spider-Man New
$5,000 - Theatre of Magic
$4,500 - Any Stern "PRO" Version (Iron Man, Avatar, Tron, TF, AC/DC) New
$4,500 - Stern Lord Of The Rings New
$4,500 - Stern Pirates Of The Caribbean New
$4,500 - Stern Iron Man New
$4,000 - Stern Simpsons Pinball Party New

$2,250 - Any mass produced Bally/Gottlieb/Stern/Williams SS Game from 1980's-90's not listed above.
How do you spend the $10,000?
