The following are rankings of the top videos and top pinballs making above average weekly gross collections nationwide. The dollar amounts appearing are the average weekly grosses as reported to Play Meter magazine through its regular national operator survey. Amounts are heavily weighted by averages reported from arcade locations; street locations are generally lower. Games with less than adequate responses (less than fifty percent) but with above average collections are so noted. Games not appearing on the poll either (1) did not generate overa ten percent response rate to provide an adequate representative sampling or (2) did not register weekly gross collections above the national average. TOP VIDEOS TOP PINBALLS Twenty of 47 videos (43%) with a response rate over ten percent have above average earnings.
