MST3K episodes are a good case in point: they're riffing movies no one would see otherwise and once they started putting them on DVD some rights-holders were like "cha-ching!" But as long as there's enough of a back catalogue to keep doing box sets, the publisher (Shout Factory) can just say "nah" and the greedy so-and-sos are confronted with some money or no money for that property.The problem with a lot of the film licenses you're talking about with pinball is the rights-holders make enough money off the property that a virtual pinball table wouldn't even register, so they just don't care.</blockquote>
