I always had the impression that The Addams Family was the one machine that the mainstream has heard of. Certainly, it was the only one I had heard of before getting into pinball.I do feel that if there is an aim to get the mainstream into The Pinball Arcade, there HAS to be a table made to be easy but not proclaimed as such (as it'd sound insulting and condescending otherwise), and the simplest way to do it is to pick a table that non-pinball people would likely go for and turn down the difficulty in such a way that they can feel rewarded. Time and again when I watch non-pinbal people play, they try, they play, they drain, they give up, and they stop playing pinball. That, I feel, is a major problem that needs to be addressed. Video and computer games have addressed this problem long ago with the techniques I described above. Though if what you say is true and The Addams Family has little mainstream appeal, I suppose that's not the right table to do it to.</blockquote>
