[QUOTE="Retron, post: 119112, member: 3685"] Here's an example of some of what our household spent on pinball games in the 90s, when there were dozens of packs being released: 1994 Epic Pinball, £60 - 13 tables Pinball Dreams, £30 - 4 tables Pinball Fantasies, £30 - 4 tables 1995 Pinball Illusions, £30 - 4 tables Pinball Dreams 2, £20 - 4 tables Psycho Pinball, £20 - 4 tables Extreme Pinball, £20 - 4 tables 1996 Tilt!, £30 - 6 tables Pro Pinball The Web, £25 - 1 table Living Ball, £10 - 1 really long table Absolute Pinball, £10 - 4 tables 1997 Pro Pinball Timeshock, £25 - 1 table Slam Tilt, £20 - 4 tables 1998 Pro Pinball BRUSA, £20 - 1 table 1999 Pro Pinball Fantastic Journey, £20 - 1 table There were others as well (Pinball 2000, Pinball Mania, Pinball 4000 as well as a few more, but I don't have records of the prices for those). So, adding the above up we get 56 tables for a total of £370, or £6.60 per table on average. Bear in mind that's 1990s pounds, £370 in 1999 would be worth £543 today after inflation. By comparison, £70 for 41 tables (£1.70 per table) is an absolute bargain. And, even better, they're generally all pretty decent - there's no equivalents of the utter dross that was Living Ball, Absolute Pinball, the water themed tables in Dreams 2 and Epic Pinball etc. [/QUOTE]
