I know four people buying their first pinball, and we know what that leads to...
Pinball is on the rise big time around here. Three new clubs in Melbourne Australia. That makes six now, enough for a league.
Pinball popularity may not rise to the heights it used to be, but neither will it fall so low again either. The thing that will keep it alive is it's uniqueness. A game in a box with a REAL BALL, a ball that will always be wild.
