Whether it be EMs or solid state - it is more than just the game. It is knowing that the big clunky thing has stood somewhere and witnessed kids growing up or men refusing to. I love my EMs because they remind me of a time gone by; I love the smell inside the cabinet; I love how making a switch open or shut can make all sorts of things happen. Call it nostalgia - EMs were part of my "wonder years". But it is still more: its the artwork, its the thrill of lighting specials, its know the history of how these things developed.
