I,ve noticed that a lot of companys don't bother with the older pins, they walk you through there warehouse with big smiles on there faces, so proud of there collection of "90's" pins. but didn't the mainsteam pinball industry crash and burn in the late 90's? You ask them do you have a bally lost world or paragon of even a black knight (1980). and there reply is we don't bother the older pins, there is to much work involved in getting them up to scratch. And they call them selves pin enthusiasts! They aren't even intrested in playing the pins they have in stock.I understand there views from a buisness point of view, but still it would be nice to see them with one or two oldies on there floor. My eldest son's school mates would brag about how they have a batman or spiderman pinball and how much better they are then his dads old sof or fire. They come around to play it so they can bag him about the old pins, then you see the look on there faces when they play them and the coments they make, "oh thats sick" one of them said and my son had to nearly pry him off the pin when his mate had to go home.Long live the older pins which i say is are a piece of our history.
