I've been wondering that for some time, if you wanted to re do all the
artwork and sound, what game would be the best candidate? I figure re-
doing DMDs would be a lot more difficult, but what models do you think
have a nice design that could be repurposed and what hardware system
is the easiest to mod? I know that there are sound boards for
Gottlieb Sys 1 that allow you to use an SD card to replace all the
sounds, but the rulesets aren't as elaborate. What game would you re-
theme?

F-14 Tomcat. Great game but dated theme and the playfield artwork
never did much for me. MattyB.

Shadow would get more love if it wasn't for the theme.

Fred if you do that you would improve the game. Better theme. Remove
the ramps and GONZO!!!!....

Hmm, instead of rubbery martians jumping up and down, it's rubbery dolly
partons jumping up and down. That would be a sight to see.

I’d take an El Dorado and re-theme it into a Target Alpha or Solar
City. Maybe even Canada Dry or Gold or Lucky Strike.

Road Show...make it an All In The Family pin. Archie talking to
Meathead. Or, Archie and George Jefferson.

Re-do Vacation America as Going Rogue (or is that Going Rouge). Reduce
the ruleset by 95%, and away you go!

I would retheme Road Show into Jackass with Steve-O and Johnny
Knoxville heads and change the cities into stunts.

That would be a money maker in the clubs and pubs, good idea
