OP
Quoted from 27dnast:
But, yes, he said that the original design had 4 stand up targets, but it was a cost cut to make it one single target.
You pay, 9k for a game that has that kind of relatively inexpensive feature removed as a cost cut? I don’t get it. At that price level, you’d think they’d make it available.

I totally agree, but I bet it's a hell of a lot more expensive and involved to do 4 drops as opposed to a straight target with 4 sensors in the back. Again, I agree - for the price of these games, don't cheap out on some targets.

NIB fatigue, similar to Star Wars burnout. Not as exciting when they come out every five months.

Quoted from rogerdodger:
As my pins are usually Pro, with the occasional Premium, I typically loose an average of, say, $500 each on resale.
So, my net cost is $500 to $1,000 per year, give or take, spent on my pinball hobby.
To me, to spend $500 to $1,000, for a years worth of fun is a screaming bargain! Many people spend more than that in Starbucks in a year!

Yes, but they don't have 20 grand tied up in Starbucks at any one time....lol...

I do understand your logic though. Once you're there, it's sustainable.
