I'm sure someone will convince me this is stupid, then again maybe not. I love Atari's cabinet designs for their coin ops, but the upright Star Wars just never grew on me. Ever. Hated it back then, hate it now. Loved the game.
Ironically, the cabinet design that I'm most in love with is the one they used for Major Havoc/Firefox/I,Robot/Return of the Jedi/Paperboy (prototype only).
So I've been mocking up the idea of buying a ROTJ cabinet, gutting the monitor/board and putting in a Star Wars boardset, vector monitor, and even going so far as to hook up the head phone jack in front as well. Beyond that, I'd actually create brand new artwork and fit it to the cabinet, marquee included.
I like the Firefox cabinet a bit more, but don't have the heart to gut that machine (a favorite of mine).
Am I mad?
Paperboy would be next...(replicate the prototype)
