$900 Black Knight on CL

Decent price if it's in good shape. Looks like the Mountain Coin showroom to me.

I was in their showroom this summer and saw this machine. It was pretty trashed, and I think they were asking $1400 or so.

Hey maybe this is the wrong place to ask...but I have a BK2k, not my favorite machine. I have never played the original, BK...what's the major differences as far as play goes? I know the table lay out differences.

BK2000 is the most over rated game from that era in my opinion (only sucker shots from left flipper. Right flipper? ramp loop oops . . . trap, ramp loop etc etc etc etc.). Grind fest - Backglass/cab art are probably the best part of the game.

If the original is working well (a rarity) it's much better. 2x or 3x pf multiplier depending on how many balls in MB you have going at once. Timed spinner and drops. Not as good of a game as Jungle Lord, but better looking,

BK2K is a total dog. The entire game is played from the right flippers. If you're flipping the left, you're not doing something right. The rules on BK are much better and the shots on the lower PF are actually relevant. The biggest bummer with the original is that its flippers are only 25V. Combine this with the shoddy system 3-7 brackets with non-replacable coil stops and the gameplay can feel pretty dead. If everything is dialed in and adjusted correctly the game is a blast, but unfortunately most people's BKs play like a wet noodle.

Dropshot told me one day he wished it was called the "White Knight". Racist.

Yeah, Stern missed out on a golden opportunity of making a limited edition Batman: Light Knight. I would have bought 8 of them.

Why not a Lite Brite Machine where you can move around the LEDs to make pictures.

I snagged her. Machine is well used but plays fine. Backglass trashed... Needs a little work on the playfield inserts but 2 B honest she plays real good, new stickers on drop targets and it will be on.
If you are in Eugene and want to play her LMK =)
