Quoted from lllvjr:

u know someone with $5-$10 million that wants to invest in a start up? im sure jpop jack or the preditor guys would have loved to meet him instead of dealing with hundreds of people investing they could have delt with one

Angel investors tend to sway towards startups that have future mass market high growth potential.

Pinball is yesterday's technology for a niche target group no matter how much powdercoating, LEDs or color displays you tack on.

Unless you are prepared to radically change the design of what a pinball machine consists of to keep up with evolving tech, the masses just aren't going to bite. And how far can you "evolve" a pinball machine before you alienate your existing market?

Boutique mini production runs using the prepaid model are the best we can hope to see in pinball in terms of "investment".
