Quoted from sbmania:

All I mean by younger collector is this. I have been buying and selling pins and other arcade games for a long time. As time has gone by, I find that families with kids and collectors under say 40 are much less interested in em games in favor of the latest digital masterpieces. If I put a mint '70's Gottlieb next to a mint '90's - 2000's digital with speech, ramps, multi-ball, etc, I will sell 10x the number of digitals to em's.
I like them both, but late model pins are much easier to sell or trade off than ems. I believe that this is a function of what people saw growing up and then gravitate to as they get in a position to buy. EMs still sell, but the game has to be absolutely mint, and the selling price will be much lower than even the most basic entry level digital pin. No judgment on all of this. Just my presonal observations in my neck of the woods. Things might be different somewhere else.

This is great news for us younger EM collectors.

Quoted from Trizel:

Haha no worries I'm 36. I would have probably wanted a skill roll at any age but didn't even know they existed until last year.

Agree with this. Have Skill Rolls always been this hot? I’ve never heard of it until about a year ago and it looks like that’s when posts really started to pick up here.

Makes me wonder. What’s the next “Skill Roll”?
