It is perfect for twitch and they do a nice job with it. I think it is a huge hurtle to educate the viewer and also get enough commercial revenue for events like this.
ABC goes to obtain a sponsor, they explain to the sponsor that the event is pinball. Most of the suits in the room are confused as to what pinball even is. That's a big hurdle. Either way I love it and would root for it to be on TV but I am not sure what would have to be overcome to make it a reality.
Twitch is great in the mean time and I'm happy to support it on internet stream.
