Quoted from Kkoss24:On the operator side of things , for what it’s worth I’m a average Joe and I’ve wondered why it’s only $1 to play a $8k machine for 5-10 minutes .Worse yet $2 for 3 plays .I’d pay double without blinking an eye .
Years ago it was about25¢ for each 2K worth of game. So $1 is about right in comparison.

Quoted from V8haha:Without location play pinball dies… i don’t care what you say, it may take a few decades but it will die.
If you recall the late 1990's and early 2000's. After Williams closed. Pinball all but disappeared from locations. There were exceptions, but many areas were pinball deserts. When Stern started rolling with games like POTC, etc. Many people didn't know what it was.
And it hung on.
It may change. It may be more or less. But as long as pinball machines are being made. It will remain in locations.

Quoted from Rarehero:What on earth is going on with CGC?
Working their butts off getting CCR ready. Getting prototypes built, and approved, and any changes made to get approval, and ready for shows. Getting games ready to ship. They've been busy.
Yes it's taken longer than anyone ever hoped. But it will be worth it.
