some older machines there are good, but might be nice to throw a few newer titles to help stimulate interests from the younger generations....

Quoted from singlebanana:Completely disagree. It's a pinball "museum" and should stay that way. Pinball for all generations to enjoy, not just DMDheads.
museums hold both old and new and if you want pinball to grow, you better have something of interest to the new younger players or pinball will die out when the old farts are gone! Just saying!! Think about the future.
Quoted from SpOoKyRiDeS:Its called a museum for a reason. New is not always better!~Spooky
museums show both old and new, doesn't have to be only old titles to have a museum. Never said new was better, just think about the younger kids who do respond to "licensed" titles. At the recent pinball festivals over the past few years, I have seen very few young kids stop and play the EM machines, but they do tend to flock to the newer stuff with themes that they are attracted to.
Quoted from singlebanana:What you also fail to understand perryd is that this is a new venture and T.C. had to put 25+ machines in this place at the onset. As a result, you can't just go out and buy the latest and greatest, these things have to come with time.
I understand the upstart, but if truly wants to be run like a musuem, then perhaps some folks can loan some machines to the establishment to help him out! Museums take things on loan for months at a time.
Please remember, I am not bashing this guy at all, just trying to make some helpful suggestions to make it more successful for both young and older players alike.
