Just out of curiosity... If I had a budget of let's say 400$ and wanted an EM, regardless of condition (wear is no issue for me) which would you recommend?

I have played Centigrade 37 and liked it a lot. I like a challenging game with nice features on it. My turn-offs:

- any pink anywhere on the machine

- clowns... I hate frickin clowns

- boring playfield with not much going on.

Any suggestions?


Retiring soon...

Volley possibly .. El Dorado is a tough find and usually over the .4K mark,

Actually the Volley at the Church last night with the LEDS looked pretty cool

I got to play an EM Cleopatra last week that I found quite fun to play.

Jacks Open was also another one I got to play and enjoyed as well.

Seeing as these are EM's,  I'm not sure how much they go for...

I agree with Jacks Open. I like the logic of trying to make specific drops in succession. I find with this game the score and ball times are pretty much balanced between making all the hands and rolling the machines score. If you make all the hands your pretty much at the top end of scoring without having the game roll over.

Personally I would like a Wizard but likely card or pool themed game would be more intersting to play. I don't know what Wizard's go for but I am thinking at least double your budget.

I like 2001 and Abra Ca Dabra. $400.00 might be a tad tight.

Also Skyjump and Top Card, the latter is tough to find but a challenging game.

If you find any of these for that price let me know, i too would like ONE nice EM in my collection. See WTB section!


Ten SS games...but 8 is my limit!
