bus jump lamps and board

I added/wired in 13 additional relays to run the increased feature set of EK EM, no fake about it. Took 150 hours of rewiring.

I don’t care how long it took. You’re marketing Evel Knievel EM’s for sale.
When in fact they’re EK EM clones.
Change your for sale ad to EK em clone. It’s misleading.
I’m pretty sure yours didn’t roll off the line in 1977.

It’s like buying a Cobra replica(kit car)for sale and telling everyone it’s a Cobra. It’s not.

And why are you showing a photo of the cabinet’s number 1156?
Is that supposed to validate it’s an EK EM?
This is laughable.
Stop bullshitting people in this hobby saying it’s an ek em.
Man I can’t wait to spend almost 10 grand on one of these.
Do I get to tell everyone when I sell it that it’s an EK EM too?
Or do I have to say, “some dude ripped an em head off an old Bally and Frankenstein”d it wit an EK cabinet. Lol.
Good Lord.

I don't understand what everybody is upset about?

Night Rider sucks, if there's someone turning Night Riders into EM EKs seems like a win for the hobby.

Who said anybody was upset?

Night Rider doesn’t suck by the way. It’s a great game.
But it’s all subjective…..

Rethemeing games is as old as the industry itself. Nothing new here.

Not even a good one at that.

A clone at least should replicate the original which this does not.
