Quoted from Monkeybug
Footnote: And since I own 4 System 11 games... I am a self proclaimed know-it-all for System 11 games. 
I own quite a few Sys. 11s as well, so I guess I am a "know-it-all" as well  I currently own: Taxi Whirlwind x 2 Swords of Fury (in storage right now  Banzai Run - almost done restoring! Elvira and the Party Monsters I have owned the following Sys. 11s: High Speed x 2 Road Kings - yuck! Cyclone Earthshaker x 2 Millionaire and played all of them except Bug's Bunny, Radical and Pool Sharks. A few folks have said the games aren't as deep as many DMD games and there is no arguing that. Regardless, they are fun games with well integrated themes and game play. I think collectors have realized this and that is why the price of Sys. 11s has increased such that many are as much, and in many cases, more than alot of DMD games. Personally, I don't consider Funhouse a Sys. 11 as the early "hacked" versions only have the Williams System 11 sound board hooked up to the WPC board. Still a great game, but not a Sys. 11  Duane |

Quoted from sylvain
Interestingly, no one yet nominated Road Kings, Cyclone nor Police Force (and a few others). 'To each their own' as was mentioned before !
Road Kings is a miserable game. Very dull with terrible sound and fugly art. I had one and was glad to see it go. I was also surprised to see no one has mentioned Cyclone. I had one and loved it in the arcade, but it got kind of old in a home environment. Love the sounds on the game, though. And the ferris wheel was too cool back in the day. Plus the animated backglass....memories  Duane |

I haven't tried BK2K, Earthshaker, Bonzai Run. Swords of Fury, but would sure like to. Highspeed is a very good system 11 games but didn't quite make it on the list....only top 5.

Duane, since you currently own 5 (even though one is duplicated?)... I believe that you should get the unofficial MAACA Sys11 know-it-all crown. Maybe when I get my next System 11, I can challenge you for it!  |

Sadly, you probably have more set up than me  The Taxi and Whirlwind are set up. The Banzai is set up, but I am shopping it now -- just about done (I need to put the top back together, finished the bottom playfield). I have one Whirlwind in pieces. And my SoF is in my crawl space  Elvira is going to be set up next week. Duane |

Hey, hey, hey.......not so fast  . A "Mousin Around" sort of dropped into my living room yesterday totally unexpected  so that puts me at 6 Sys 11. (none duplicated) I'm not claiming the "know-it-all crown" tho as I'm still learning as I go(newbie in training) but I'll lay claim to the "Out of their mind Sys 11 collector" crown.  ME When is the next meeting again of "Pinball Collectors Anonymous"  ?????????? |
