    Gen X (1969). Pinball ruled the '70's. Got sucked in by the Kiss pinball machine. Atari 2600 & video arcades dominated my middle school years. Arcades were just beginning to fade when I graduated in '87 (started disappearing from the local malls). SNES in the early 90's. MAME sparked my passion for old arcades, ended up collecting a few. Pinmame made me fall back in love with pinball. TPA on my iPad has fueled my pin obsession exponentially. Unloaded most of my arcades, have a modest pin collection which will grow.
