Kids want instant gratification !
Video games are coded response to your action.
Pinball is gravity and reaction time ! And a little practice.
Also kids are interested in what other kids are.they all want to be cool.

Thinking back to late 60’s early 70’s, as a kid didn’t have much coin so times we would split the 10 cent game and play what we called “flipsies”
One kid played left flipper one kid played right flipper it was actually a lot of fun! Buckaroo was my fave in that lineup! The animated backglass drew me in!!
