Quoted from Coindork:Dirty pool, old man!
That's Attack From Mars, when you lock a ball behind the gate.
How about a theme that's not 40 years old? The world is evolving, things are different now and tastes have moved on for most people.
I do know lots of people still listen to the same music and watch the same shit they did 40 years ago, but they are limiting themselves.
Remember how excited we were when roller skates evolved into the Surfer Sam?
Same evolution is still happening now folks.
Motorbikes are different, music is different and pinball has evolved.
Let's get with the times.
Could do an aggressive nation army pin. Could go out from your nice comfortable, rich nation and attack other countries because you don't like their culture or you want their assets, or maybe just to keep your bomb factories profitable. Think of the multiball opportunities.
Maybe the whole trapped sub on the ocean floor thing?
Race to find a cure for a disease?
Global corporation war with Wall st takeovers etc?
Quoted from Damonator:Because pinball companies like money?
No offense, but I’d rather chew on razors than play a pinball game based on Covid, politics, economics or social causes.
Merely suggesting they move with the times.
I'm not creayive, therefore my examples suck, but it still doesn't need to be a theme from something from 40 years ago.
Agreed, but most of the people in bars are younger people in my experience. At least in Australia, the older generations put their money in stinking fucking poker machines (slots). They are in every bar, pub and social club across the country.
There are plenty of recognizable themes that are not from our childhood, TWD is one of the best pinball machines out there. Nostlagia is ok i guess, but i listen to modern music and watch new release movies.
Loved Led Zepplin, Pink Floyd and Deep Purple when i was a kid, but i wouldn't go to see those old cunts thrashing the same songs from 40 years ago if i got free tickets. Rather see an up and coming band.
It was all about the new music back then, but people forget that.
I can only think that us old guys are their primary target market, and i think that should change before we all die.
In any case, us progressive's are certainly in the minority, so I'll let you get back to your stroll through your happy childhood.
Quoted from theadicts77:Dreadful post. The Undertones emerged 45 years ago and are a million times better than the crap music bands release today. But please go on and lecture us about how we're 'limiting ourselves'.
I'm not lecturing you or anyone else. I'm merely putting forward a view that the world has moved forward in 40 years.
I'm perfectly entitled to that view too.
