I'm down to 1 machine and there is a very good chance that the number will be zero very soon.
I don't know if it is burnout or not but I am not enjoying the pins anywhere near as much as I used to.
I guess priorities change...they certainly have for me.
Maybe keep the one and let it gather dust. I'm sure the day you play it again after a good spell will get you back into the spirit
Maybe your right....dunno....Pinballs are a like drugs for me...very very addictive and good for time wasting...I can loose hours and hours on them easily but besides from some fun playing them they do very little else for me. I am not a fixer so that doesn't interest me.
To be honest mate it feels like I am wasting my time with them... just going round and round in circles from game to game and purchase to purcahse has gotten very stale.
I could be wrong but I just can't shake the feeling that I should be doing something else a lot more construcitve with my time other than playing pinball.
Maybe that might change...maybe it won't....life goes on.
A new collector I know "always wanted a pinball", then took the plunge with a Funhouse. He then added four more pins. I caught up with him the other day and he mentioned something that I won't forget for a while - " I come home from work STRESSED, then I lose an hour on the pinball machines and find that at the end of the session, I'm not stressed anymore".
Pinball does different thing for different people.
