No doubt when 'our' generation is dead & gone, about 98% of pins will be trashed....there might be a slight resurgence when the next "retro is cool" fad comes around sometime in 2050.....
Pinball is becoming just another lost trade....we may as well become blacksmiths 
The financial future of the world will certainly help put it all to an end, unless pinball retailers (what's left of them) decide to sell machines for $500 at last....
MM.
well... When your generation is gone machines should be cheaper... It only makes sence, If the collectors are gone than there is no demand... Therefore I come in and buy them alllllllllll!!!!!!!!!! Dad... This is where your house comes in...
I'll need your house to store them all. haha
Its a thought though... If we can somehow get young people playing them than they will like them later and if they like them they wont trash them... if they are cheap and people dont care about them than they will become a party to, to destroy a pinball machine. Stern will disapear (Bankrupt) Pinball companys will be the thing of the past...
Answer: Get young people playing or say bye to pinball!
