Certainly would be cool to see Japan become a bit of a pinball market.
My Korean friend was over recently, and despite it being her first time playing pinball, she did really well. I would imagine that with the strong gaming culture in Asia most people who step up to a machine would quickly figure out what to do (and have the hand eye coordination to make that first play worthwhile). It’s hard to sell pinball to somebody if they lose their $1 immediately.
