Good price for a Jurassic Park Lost World?

Local ad has what looks like a very nice one for $1650. I have no feel
for the value of these machines.

That's not too too bad for a very nice one. If you go and look at it,
make sure the motor on the t-rex is 100%, that can be a real pain if it
goes on you. Either way, for that price I'd rather get the williams
version, Whirlwind

Well, that's about the going price, give or take a few, yes. But,
playwise, the game is as boring as mowing a lawn or a party at a
nursing home. Even original Jurassic Park is actualy way, way better
than that one.

For that ballpark figure, or less, there is a wealth of options, titles
and various degrees of fun available to you: Dr. Who, Johnny Mnemonic,
The Shadow, Demolition man, Bram Stoker's Dracula, The Who's Tommy,
Fish Tales, Terminator 2, Stargate, Cue Ball Wizard, The Getaway High
Speed 2... and World Cup Soccer & Whitewater (maybe a bit more for
each).

No T-Rex on that game, as far as I remember (it has been a little while
since I played it). Unless you mean, the cracked egg thing with baby
T-Rexes?

You probably confused it with the original Data East 1993 Jurassic
park, which is clearly a much better game than this one.

Yes, just noticed that I did in fact confuse the two JP games. I do
enjoy the first one (not as much as whirlwind, but still a decent
game), but felt the lost world was a dud.

Jurassic Park is better. The dinosaur ball grabber thing is cool. Beats
Fun House far as playfield toys go in my opinion.
I played one a half hour from my house just two days ago at MTW Enterprises
here in VA. http://www.silverballsolutions.com/home.html I would have
bought the game myself if it wasn't for space issues.
