I've seen so many games $4K and under I'd much rather have than a Stern home edition:
Judge Dredd, T2, Demolition Man, NBA Fastbreak, Nascar, Pinbot, Taxi, Cyclone, Frankenstein, Lethal Weapon 3, Stargate...
I just think someone that's into pinball enough to build their own homebrew machine would really get bored and be dissapointed with a home pin, it's a lot of scratch for a bare playfield imo... Do what it takes to get the Pro if that's the choices you're limiting yourself to.
Quoted from CrazyLevi:I just don’t think this is the right candidate to be trying to talk into buying a 30 year old game.
Wife won’t be happy when it breaks after 2 weeks.
He's working on a homebrew machine, if he can't handle the issues of a 30 year old machine he may as well give up now.
