Like others have said, it’s a hard thing to explain. For me at age 54 it’s bringing me back to 1978 when at age 14, spending summer days at the Aladdin’s Castle arcade in the local Mall were awesome carefree times. I’ve got 4 1970s pins now in my game room and am enjoying learning how to work on the same games that brought so much joy in my youth. That’s probably a common theme among all pinheads. The sounds, sights and feel of these machines are special to me as much as any inanimate object could be. Addictive for sure and most of all fun. It’s also a great escape from the potholes of life. I close my gameroom door, turn on those machines and some music or a ball game and it’s heavanly.
