This is all true but I’ll add that the charm and subtle skill of pinball comes from its physicality. Flipper skills alone will boggle the mind of beginners: drop catch, live catch, post pass, loop pass, tap pass, alley pass, dead bounce, slap save, death save, bang back, two-staging multiple flippers. Not to mention all the ways you can move the machine. Video games have nothing equivalent, and video pinball is not pinball.
