    Quoted from sponjey:

    Hi All,
    This is my first post, so please forgive me if this topic has already been discussed. I couldn't find anything in my search and perhaps I didn't do it right considering I'm still figuring out the site as a new active user.
    I just got my first pin delivered (DE Star Wars 1992) and super excited to introduce it to my kids (4.5yrs and 1.5yrs old). Neither have an idea of what a pinball machine is or the concept of having to pay money to play games.
    I thought, hey, this might be a great opportunity to show them (the older one who'd be able to grasp this concept) that things come at a cost and when you run out of quarters, that's the end.
    Has anyone taken this approach? Curious how it went and any tips if you did.

    Get a coin operated pool table with the coin pusher mech. The sound of the billiard balls dropping to the subway so they can be accessed and racked is priceless. Brings back good memories of the location pool games of my college years.
