I was curious if others noticed that since Stern has become the main manufacturer of pinball machines, it seems as though their machines no longer feature drop targets on the playfield. I certainly have not been fortunate enough to have played every title they have released since they became Stern Pinball, but when I come across one here or there in a club, bar, amusement park, go kart track, etc, it just seems that the game designers have no love for the drop target anymore. I personally am a huge fan of drop targets and was wondering the preference of others here.
Like I said, I have only played a handful of the Stern Pinball tables when I can find them and could be way off base in my observation, but does it seem that the majority of Stern pins just don't feature drop targets anymore?
