Something more down to earth would be interesting.
How about Tsunami.
Just imagine, the shaker motor gives a bit of a workout, the tectonic plates on the playfield move shake and twist. You  have to race the clock to prevent catastrophe and nuclear meltdown.
With shaker, good lighting wow toys and LCD, I reckon this would be a hit. Another posibility would be to incorporate some lighting effects into the cabinet. Technology is cheaper by the day so why not use it.
