Moon Patrol for $250 or Defender for $450??? What to buy?

So I have two options but only space and cash for one of them, both are in very nice condition and play well.

WWYD???
 
Defender.....no wait, Moon Patrol.......no wait, Defender,....no wait.....honestly I could argue either way, leaning toward the Defender....no wait leaning toward the moon....crap!

Which one do you like more?
 
Moon Patrol personally, but I'm not big on Defender, just crippling to play on the hands. Moon Patrol isn't quite as fun overall, but its more friendly to non-arcade people. Save the extra cash you will have to put toward things to make the games you have look even better.
 
Obviously it's your choice since you have to live with the decision, but if you're asking opinions I would probably get Defender since Moon Patrol is easier to play in MAME.
 
I'd say that, down the road, you're prolly more likely to find another nice Defender for around $500 than another nice Moon Patrol for around $200. Granted the figures are a bit skewed, but this is how I would look at it. Down the (hypothetical) road, what's $50?
 
That availability thing is the best argument I've heard.

Get the Moon Patrol. The Defender may come down in price later and you may magically find more space :)
