Quoted from asay:That guy killed Williams Pinball, but what happened to Gottlieb before that?
I thought I read that it was some botched gaming contract that put them out of business, or maybe I'm confusing that with something else.
Well Gottlieb changed hands a bunch, hence Premiere, Alvin G and other weirdness. I've always heard it was just pinball slowdown in the mid nineties, but never heard this botched contract story.
Quoted from LTG:During the video fad years ( 1979-1981 ) pinball went with it. Lots of new arcades opened up, around 50,000 nation wide. After the fad died, with in a few years most of the new locations were gone. And with them a place to put equipment.
LTG : )™
And somewhere on a different forum users are lamenting over the death of the self serve frozen yogurt craze. Things come and go and then weirdos like us cry about it.
The only trends you can count on are titties and beer.
