I think 2018 will be mostly positive for pinball as interest in pinball machines continues to grow and this year and there are more new pins slated than in years past. I do see some bumps in the road for a few manufacturers. Jersey Jack Pinball and their release of Pirates of the Carribean will most likely be their worst seller to date. I hope American Pinball hits it big with Houdini? It looks great but with all the new pinball machines slated for 2018 I worry that Houdini could be their first and last pinball machine. As a NIB Pinball buyer there's only so much $$$ to go around. I'm sure Stern will have a rock solid year starting it off with a new Elvira pinball machine. Heighway & Spooky certainly look to continue to build upon a positive finish to 2017. I'm also excited to see what remake Chicago Gaming is going to toss out there next. I have a feeling it will be Monster Bash. Maybe we'll see Dutch Pinball turn things around in 2018 like Heighway did recently.
Cheers to a great 2018 in Pinball!
