    It won't survive. It's an old man's hobby. Lou Reed said it best, "I don't like nostalgia unless it's mine."

    Quoted from lowepg:

    Obviously I think you're right. I think we might very well look back at 2014/2015 as the peak of the "pinball rebirth." With 3-4 new players cranking out games in addition to Stern- and all driving the price point to new highs.... certainly the saturation point for $7K-$8K pinball is going to be tested.
    Add in the fact the the US economy is being artificially pumped up by horrible monetary policy... and THAT day of reckoning is coming soon....
    Winter is Coming.

    Agree 100%.
