[QUOTE="Supermans, post: 12982, member: 678"] The problem is that the average Gaming attention span of the average IOS iphone/ipad user per game is perhaps 1 day of play and they move on to the next free or $1 app that you can complete in an hour of play. Pinball is more complex, you cannot get all you can out of it in an hour, or a single session of play. Furthermore, most younger iphone and ipad users will not have played a pinball machine since arcades are scarce and spend all their time on consolesplaying black ops. The core pinball audience is large, but an older crowd. And many are coming in late in the game having accidentally heard about the game in passing from a friend, or seeing it as app of the week in the appstore and remembering that they used to love pinball games when they were younger. Overall, I believe there are still a lot more potential customers out there and if Farsight keeps their attentions in these forums, they might catch more wanderers. Twilight Zone and Star Trek TNG will bring in lots of fans. I think Star Trek will bring even more than TZ simply because there are thiusands of Trekkies that will get the facebook message alerting them from the star trek facebook profile. There are a lot more Star Trek fans than Twilight Zone fans, even though the pinball table of TZ is more popular. [/QUOTE]
