For the record, I am 25 and would never call pinball machines "video games" .. I own two pins, and thanks to the internet (specifically these forums) my collection will only continue to grow
However, my younger brother, his 20 year old gf and her 18 year old sister were playing my Jurassic Park yesterday, and the two girls were playing and neither of them knew how to shoot the ball into play, and both walked away from the machine after their first ball, thinking the game was over. Her sister specifically had no clue what to do. When she saw the machines, she said "ohh cool I have seen these things before" ... these "things"??? ughhh very frustrating to watch people who don't what know pinball machines are. Anyone else get really paranoid when someone who doesn't know what they are doing touch your machine?
