none! I think with the new gameroom I'll have room for one more.

Unfortunately due to the sexual nature i'll have to put it on the wall end of the row of pins and probably throw a blanket over it when my nephews are over. even though my sister in law seems to be fine with scared stiff i think BBB is a few steps beyond that Wink

. I guess we'll have to put the kids to bed early.

The hardest thing about the new game room (besides actualy completing it) is how to arrange the pins I have room for 5 on 1 wall and 4 on another. The only givens are that BBB has to go in spot 1 or 9. and game 1 and 2 has to not have a gun handle. FT can only be in positions 6 or 7 due to height restrictions and STTNG can't be in position 9 either so you can aim the guns without bonking your head against the wall Wink

.

--- -----------
1 (door) 6 7 8 9
2
3
4
5

games SS, STTNG, CFTBL, BK2K, FT, BBB, MM, AFM, LOTR

any ideas? Wink

Nothing.

It will stay in the line with my other four Capcom pinball machines (AB, BS, FF, PM). And there will be space for King Pin (i still keep my fingers crossed)

On the other wall will be my other pins (IJ, TZ, STTNG, SC).

The EM's (Merry Widow, Happy Clown and Brite Star - and Wizard coming soon) will stay in the other room.

Simply perfect. (from my view, for sure, there will be other opinions)

I, also, will not be replacing anything. I've got a special spot just waiting BBB's arrival......whenever that may be.

I'm still hoping for a special Christmas present......or possibly my birthday present, but that's not until March.

NOW:

SS BG HB TA DOOR BTTF

SS = Bally Strikes and Spares
BG = Big Guns
HB = Hyperball
TA = Target Alpha
DOOR = The Doorway on that wall
BTTF = Back to the Future

The plans are:

Sell Big Guns
Move BTTF to the Big Guns Spot
BBB goes where BTTF was.

Alternatlely:
Store Bally Strikes and Spares
Move BTTF to where SS was
BBB goes where BTTF was.

BTW the other wall is:

TZ DW AFM TSPP MB CFTBL TAF

VARKON is in the video game room (but it's a pin).

Although I do have a line up of Bally WMS games of which some are for sale (SC, MB) I tend my BBB to replace my Xenon as this one is located opposite the other row as a stand alone.

Sell or get rid of the "DOOR", instead. Then you can have six pins and enter through the window (ceiling).

This has been a real struggle. Right now my line up is:

MB, CV, RFM, AFM on one wall
TZ, LOTR, SC, TAF, MM on the other

I am thinking about letting the LOTR, RFM, or CV have a sleepover at my sister's house, but it sure is not easy...

This will be an additional machine. I still have a bunch of space in the basement.

BBB will be taking the place of my Bank Shot in the "main" gameroom. I call it the "main" gameroom only because it is the only one in my house that is fully finished, not because it actually has the most games in it. The main gameroom will have BBB, I500, EBD a pool table, 2 vids, a slot and my antique bicycle collection.

The Bank Shot will move back to my workshop and "real" gameroom area. There you will find 3 EMs on the short wall, Honey, Bank Shot and Soccer. Along the long wall there are the SS and DMD games- WCS'94, WH20, Strange Science, EarthShaker, Bad Cats, Speakeasy, Flash and Batman, along with an antique nickle slot and another vid.

Thankfully I will not need to get rid of any pins to make room. I had 22 in my house and have now scaled it back to "just" 16.

My collection includes Centaur (have 2-1 is almost perfect and the other has a worn playfield-soon to have a new playfield), T2, Sharkey's Shootout, Eight Ball Deluxe, Earthshaker, Embryon, Evil Kneivel, Playboy (78 Bally), Kings of Steel, Guns N Roses, Superman (two of these-1 is restored and clearcoated), Road Show, Taxi, and a Theatre of Magic. The Big Bang Bar will go next to the TOM and GNR.

I had already sold a mint TZ, a very nice STTNG, Alien Poker, Jokerz, Nitro Groundshaker, and a beautiful Xenon. I do wish I had kept the TZ, Xenon and STTNG as they were sold three years ago, before they commanded the staggering prices of today, and they were pretty fun pins to play. Pin Sale remorse... Sad

But they are more than made up for with the new BBB coming soon to a gameroom near you.... Very Happy

No Pin will left the house!

I hope I have moved house until BBB will arrive and hopefully there is space enough for the one or another machine.
