    Pinball itself is not very appealing to most people, need a hook.

    Quoted from holminone:

    Salty. Not trying to argue, just pointing out the opportunity for unique creativity (by art, I’m not just talking about colors and brushstrokes). 4 of the top 10 games are unlicensed. ALL console hits are unlicensed themes. Stern is onto something with epic high energy Rock bands, but lack the creativity and courage to create something new. Given the evidence in both pinball and elsewhere I just find it surprising they don’t take a swing now and then.

    Isn't FIFA one of the most popular and best selling video games?
