rickhunter:
I went with a virtual pinball setup.  I really wanted a real one, but the cost and never having owned one scared me away because of potential maintenance issues. 
sixcardmark:
I have all (many) EM pinball machines.  Don't care for all the toys and ramps of the newer stuff.
jay:
The one most important thing to do is get the battery pack off of the backplane mother board.
When it leaks - recovering from something like that is very touch and go.
They are not making those backplane boards any more so a replacement is very expensive.
Moving the battery elsewhere is an easy thing to do and will save you a mint in the future.

Other than the above maint is not that big of a deal on a real one.
Most common issues are light bulb failures.
Badbaud:
Rumor has it that within a year, all glass light bulbs will be banned.
We have converted our games to LED bulbs, finding side glow instead of top glow is always a problem.
jay:
High heat oven bulbs I have heard are hard to create a LED version of.
I am sure new stoves would have some form of heat sheild to accomodate LED but not sure about legacy.

I a,so worry about the Lava Lamps that use the heat from a 100w incodesent to make them work.
