DPP #224 "The return of the Want!"

Don discusses the psychological shift from compulsive new-game purchasing to cultivating healthy desire ('the want') for pinball machines. He reflects on selling games (Harry Potter, Avatar) during a house move, rediscovering enjoyment through hunting for used machines like Walking Dead Remastered, and defends critics' right to judge games without owning machines. Key industry updates: Spooky's Beetlejuice production begins January 5, Barrels of Fun has 69 Labyrinths remaining, Dune sales closed December 31 (~550 units sold), and Jersey Jack's Sonic pipeline shows positive early signals.
