Quoted from chadderack:Agreed that we need new blood in pinball; but how much of that new blood will commit serious cash to the hobby?
If there's a way to get these new machines out on location and have the younger gen actually try them, yeah.... good idea.
But these titles would have limited support from the 40-55 year olds who are spending the cash as collectors. Not as many 18-34 yo's can afford pinball machines (yet).
I think the number of younger people buying pins would surprise you, but I think you're right. Its too bad that if stern did make a game that would put the focus more towards opperating, they would get berated by all the people in the hobby that want them to focus on collector games.
