All pins have something to offer, some more than others. But don't let the general population make your mind up for you - what you like is what you like. I don't really like TZ - but it's super popular with so many others. Games appeal for different reasons. And it might just be that as bang for buck goes, you're a mile ahead!

Thats so true, Nick.

Street Fighter II bore the brunt of many pinball jokes, but I found that when people actually PLAYED the game, they quickly changed their minds./ Just because it does not have the "Bally/Williams" logo, does not mean it is not a great pinball to play. System 3 games are underrated.

The movie was a dog apparently - maybe many people associate the pin and movie too closely?

Go ahead and post some pictures. And how much of a bargain was it?

Hmm, speaking of pinball jokes, does Popeye have any redeeming features? I guess someone loves it...

Owned an SF2 for a while around 10 years ago. Really enjoyed the time i had with it. Only thing i didn't like was the car crunch, But apart from that it was great!. HEAPS of shots on that playfield, and some are really tough but rewarding to master. Excellent wizard mode too!.

Cueball Wizard was my first pinball. I loved it! Should not have sold it. Reliable too.

It's definitely on my list - recommended to me by my mate as a winner.

Popeye did have a good feature it was the on off switch. Off would be my choice.
