Quoted from SantaEatsCheese:Are there more people getting in the hobby or leaving? There is your answer.
Well I am new to the hobby and just bought a machine that was rated horribly and paid 400$ more than pinside averages its worth. My wife and I are having a blast with it, LW3 . People like me that are new are willing to overpay for titles that have been bashed over the years show that prices will continue to rise. High demand low supply. Maybe this will cause people to leave on the other hand, sorry guys.
