    I'm not sure I understand what's in this "museum" aside from games to play. Is it going to have exhibits that relate to pinball as well as games? Or is it just a pinball arcade? Are you going to have background information on all of the machines so that someone can learn the history of each machine? (ie: Terminator 2 doesn't have the T1000 because it was a secret). What makes this a museum vs. an arcade?

    Or is there both a museum section and then a "play" area at the end? If so, I would expect some sort of gift shop but not sure what you're selling.

    Maybe I'm overthinking the terminology...

    OP
    Quoted from pookycade:

    Well I consider an arcade my local bowling alley which just seems to have mostly redemption games and a sit down video or two. I consider just pins to be a standard set of Stern 2000+ pins in some bar. I consider a museum to be representing all eras of pinballs from first flipperless to present. And yes it will have descriptions for each game. But really I think "museum" is really not a well chosen word for most of these endeavors. Better called multi era pinballs machines. Just doesn't have the same ring to it does it ?

    Ahhh, that makes more sense, thanks for the clarification and good luck on the endeavor!
