Quoted from Doctor6:I mean, theres probably 5.3 million pedophiles in the world, too. Should we have a pedophile pinball machine next?
It is an aging and slowly dying well to draw from. An artist from today would have over 10 times the fan base and appeal. I've said it before and I'll say it again, this hobby is slowly dying because it likes to focus on a fan base that is also.... slowly dying.
We're already seeing a shift towards games aimed at a younger audience with Stranger Things, TMNT, and all the superhero pins. I don't think the same would work with music pins - if I look at today's music trends and their fans, I see no common ground with pinball whatsoever. Maybe music pins will disappear somewhere down the line, but if you want to build a successful one today, you've got to consider the current pinball community, and - like it or not - many of us have experienced GN'R, AC/DC, Sabbath, or Zeppelin in their prime and are nostalgic for those themes. We're also the ones who can afford current concert prices, so I think the list of top touring artists (with the possible exception of Ed Sheeran) doesn't seem to be the worst place to start.
