I think we are at the peek of the market for retro arcade and pinball. Once the 40 odd year olds are 50 and 60 odd . The interest will die off pretty quickly. In 20 years these games will be worth a small fraction of asking prices now. Just my prediction.
Spot on.
All the makers and distributors of pinballs are clamouring for your dollar knowing full well that this is the last roll of the dice for the hobby, hence the LE and premium editions from Stern.
They know that tomorrows potential pinball buyers( todays kids) have little or no interest in pinballs and the time to strike with 30+ crowd is now.
That is why most if not all the current themes released are aimed at this demographic.
