I was always a vid game guy. Even in the Arcade/80's days I preferred video games over pins. I've owned 3 video games for decades (Asteroids, Robotron and Joust). Then it happened-- I went to CA Extreme last year and played a few pins and fell in love with a Firepower that was decked out with a sub. That's when the pin bug bit me. Within a month I tracked down a Firepower in LA and picked it up...learned a ton fixing it up; board work, LED's etc. I now have 11 in the house. I feel naked if I don't always have a project pin to work on. I have 3 lined up to be finished, but I love it. A very addictive hobby indeed.
