Quoted from Wolfmarsh:Just a wild ass guess based on games over the past few years, but I think in pinball there are about 50 people that have enough money to buy every game that comes out, sight unseen and don't care about anything related to gameplay or quality. Seems like most every new game can sell 50, but sales after that take effort.
50 people?
They had 400+ people begging to buy a $15,000 BM66 SLE.
They presold 800 Star Wars LEs before the game was even announced.
There are waayyyyy more than 50 rich dudes in this hobby ...
