    The "Golden Age" of pinball occurred during the 1970s and early 80s. There has only been one Golden Age. It is a term defined by the popularity, proliferation and commercial success of pinball. After the early 80s, pinball was never the same and was in decline and still is today. In 1980 during the Golden Age there were at least 3-4 arcades in every town. Now there are virtually zero.
