I think they still have them. But I don't know where. I remember them. My favorite one years ago was the KISS pinball machine.

Not techy enough for today's generation of game players

I loved pinball machines too.  They were so much fun... ate up our quarters but provided fun at the local ice-cream shop.  My brother had a hand held pinball game.  He was a child of the 70's.  I think I burnt the thing up and it got thrown out cause I haven't seen it in years.  Juke boxes have disappeared too.

I use to love to play pinball machines.  No, you don't see very many of them any more mainly because of computers/smartphones/iPads/gameboys, etc. have taken the need away for the pinball machines.  I wish I had a penny for every quarter I put into one of those machines in my lifetime!  It use to cost a quarter but you would probably have to put a dollar in now days to play a game!
Have a wonderful day!

yeah, probably because they're not techy enough and there's so much other entertainment these days
