I found it funny that a MS Owned site would blame Bill Gates and the Xbox. :)

Anyone remember those cool pinball machines?

Killer Comet

Gorgor

Black Knight

Eight Ball Deluxe

I'm surprised the figures they cite still give it 1+ billion in 1999. Video classics like Gauntlet, Q*Bert, Defender are also dying out.
New Old video games live on in MAME
but you cannot put a Pinball Game into a computer program. Not without emulating all the mechanics of it or something.
