Quoted from ExtremePinball:

That $20,000 investment into 3 new games will earn me more money in a week than the $100,000 investment that I have into 16 pinball machines combined.

That argument seems at odds with what you were saying about the Pinball Hall of Fame a few months ago, about how you'd run it differently - but it seems your way isn't working so you're going with basketball games. I guess Tim's way actually works.

It's nice to see some validation for him.

Quoted from ExtremePinball:

I would still run it differently. Tim has a long established career in pinball, and a long established business with PHoF. I've been open, as an arcade, for two months. Check back with me in 10 years.

Why would I bother? It'll be nothing but coin pushers and redemption by then. Those are easy.

Quoted from ExtremePinball:

Would you like to continue publicly exhibiting your ignorance, or shall we stop here?

You're the one who says he can do a better job at running pinball machines than Tim, and then pulls pinball out of his arcade because he can't make it work. So, who's ignorant?
