Bump.
What are the places to go for pinball in Calgary and what are the costs of play like?
I was visiting a friend who had a trove of pinball machines. Mandalorian, Deadpool, haunted house, Godzilla, Batman to name a few. The wife even kinda got into it. She doesn't really like video games and she knows it costs $5-20K per machine but inexplicably suggested we should consider buying one and that the kids might enjoy it.
I'm thinking to strike while the iron is still hot and kinda figure out if she was being serious or if she just got caught up in the moment. I have to admit, I've never really previously been interested in pinball, but it was way more fun than I had anticipated when in a basement setting.
A quick search and it seems like Pinbar is still a place to be and some place called Hidden spot? Any other suggestions? Perhaps one where I can bring kids and give them a turn while teaching them not to wreck the machines?
If I luck out... any suggestions on which to attempt to acquire? I saw that SML entertainment has a few machines and I'm leaning towards inquiring about Jurassic Park and Guardians of the Galaxy as finalists if indeed the wife inexplicably green lights a purchase. Any idea on ballpark costs for these ones? I'm assuming $15K
My Kids are 2 and 4... I'm not sure if that age and pinball is the greatest combination and it's insanely pricey for a spontaneous purchase... but I've never had my wife suggest such an idea before and I'd rather not miss out on an opportunity see how it ends up.
