Quoted from Shapeshifter:Saving a regular game would kill longevity.
Do you remember the video game transition from starting at the beginning every time to quarter-sucker?
I think it's still debatable today whether that extended the life of arcades or helped kill them but today it's beneficial to offer a feature that's standard on all home consoles. If it kills longevity but increases profitability operators will love it.
Quoted from jawjaw:A pinball game should not take hours to complete. I think a lot of modern pinball is complicated enough and annoying to have unachievable modes for all except elite players.
How long should it take? When you say "complete" do you mean accomplish every goal, start every mode (but not finish them), get to every wizard mode, 'beat' the game, or some other definition?
What do you consider an elite player? How should a pin be designed for new, below average, average, above average, and elite players?
