Has everything you need to know. Well, a lot. Read all that then join the pindev slack channel to talk to other pin makers.

Pinball parts are expensive because they are made in low volume, relative to most things. No one is getting rich making pinball I assure you.

I wouldn't waste time re-inventing the wheel - just pick one of the half-dozen existing pinball control systems (I recommend P-ROC, but if you're a glutton for punishment and also very cheap, OPP works fine).
