    The big difference is 10 years ago all 90’s Bally Williams sold were routed. Now the only BW’s for sale are home use only!!!

    Quoted from Bublehead:

    Even worse- Undocumented HUO

    Nicest one in the world. Youre just mad because you can't afford it and youre a hater.

    Get a second job and maybe you will have a shot at this HUO fishtales currently for sale

    Did anyone say don’t worry the pinball fad will “age out” yet?

    Quoted from Zablon:

    This looks staged lol. And if it wasn't it didn't last more than a game or so.
    Like the above post, I have tons of friends who ignored and never asked about the pinball machines when they were over for decades. Now it's a 'thing' because it's popular, but they still only play a couple games before moving on to something else.

    I was thinking that possibly one day in the future someone on the Internet might say that pinball is going to die off in a generational shift.

    I then thought to myself I wonder how big the local pool of child actors is.

    A plan was born

    Quoted from Zablon:

    Well I said it 'looks' staged. I didn't say it was.
    But since you brought it up, it's 2022 and people are always staging stuff for likes and attention, so I mean, it's not out of the realm someone would go out of their way lol (yes, I realize that would seem unlikely on pinside, just a worldly observation).

    Just having fun with you. It was an event for the girl scouts where we brought their troop in and showed them our operation, let them cook food in our kitchen and then play pinball for an hour.

    We do have a large amount of kids playing our pinball machines. The sound of double flipping is maddening.

    Funny thing is that these 30 year old pinall machines are exciting new technology to most of these kids
