Face it …We’re weirdos to the masses . Only because they never owned one .I played pinball here n there at places prior to getting hooked .For instance, we had a camper at a Yogi Bear park with an arcade .They had a rough South Park with half lights not working and no sound .The other was a Harley Davidson without the bike in it .2 plays n “pinball sucks”. Once you play a working machine everything changes .Not many people want to put the time in to keep one up .I actually enjoy working on them as much as playing because when you get it dialed in everything changes .The world opens up! Bottom line either your all in or not with this hobby .Prices play a big part also .
