If you could only buy one pinball on 1500 budget

lol!!

I owned a LW for maybe 6 months and found it to be an okay pin, but quickly boring when played for more than 15 minutes. Not to mention the horrible artwork, ugly color scheme and the fact its a DE pin. ;) (And quickly tiring of the "OK OK" thing with the updated rom even!)

Mine broke down and that seems to be how I find all of them on the market: Broken.
 
I love my BSD, probably our fave game that we've had so far. It can be had for cheap too. Mine doesn't work already though, stupid f115 fuse is blowing. Think I have CPU issues...i hate pinball as much as I love it..
 
Elvira and the Party Monsters - hands down. This is a great pinball for the price, good sounds, gameplay and design. You won't be disappointed with this pin for that price that's for sure.
 
most of the movie themed pins whose movie bombed......I.E



the shadow
last action hero
judge dredd
etc....

im looking at a startgate ...:)
 
Here are some of the best in my opinion that are later models and < $1500 typically, sometimes they are only $1000:

Whirlwind
World Cup Soccer 94
Fish Tales (not a huge fan but it's usually <$1500)
Johnny Mnemonic
Earthshaker
Congo
Black Knight 2000
Whitewater
Roadshow

Games based on a crappy movie or a comic can be good deals, but I have a real hard time getting past the license. I'd much rather have a "generic" license like Roadshow, Whirlwind, Funhouse etc. than a licensed one based on a movie or comic that doesn't really appeal to me.

Johnny M was a crappy movie, but for some reason that game just grabbed me. I think it was because of my location game experience.

My best so far is 56 mil. I have got the extra ball only one time and I for the life of me cant get it again. I got it before I updated the software and since then havent been able to get it even with the glass off. Also Depending on when the machine you played went out they changed the coil for the left flipper to fix the problem of not being able to get it up the right ramp. Once I changed that I can get it everytime now.

What makes you so sure Tron is the next pin? Don't get me wrong I would LOVE to see that happen but knowing the issues between Stern and Disney - not likely to happen from where I sit.
 
Earthshaker
Whirlwind
Diner
Fish Tales
Bram Stoker's Dracula
Dr Who
World Cup Soccer 94
Funhouse
Hook
Jurassic Park

To name a few...
