Been around for a while but this is a really well done retheme of a Hollywood Heat to Evil Dead
Hollywood heat has really cheesy art so no big loss there
Kinda cool how he utilised a Black Hole spinner to create a cool effect in the head
I think this generation of Gottlieb are a lot more versatile and powerful for a retheme than an late 70's early 80's Bally
That was the other re-theme. Again, done for the collector's interest and not for re sale.
I don't think I've even seen "rethemed" games for a purpose of selling at massive profits. So why would anyone do such a thing other than the motivation of money ?
I opened a bakery to make a profit
ARP exists to make a profit
all the backyard mod makers dream of one day making a profit
the guys making Sunset Riders series of games, if they can find buyers at those prices, good for them
Every individual makes a profit. Even the Catholic Church (richest institution on the planet)..
OK - Let's use the Bakery analogy. Do you bake a Pie, and then change it to a Pizza and sell for 4-5 times the original price ? No one would do that.
APR will NEVER re theme any game - period.
The point I'm making is that these re themes are not done for the same reason as 99% of re themes are done (Metallica, Iron Maiden, Evil Dead..). Those Surfing games are done specifically to sell. Not as a hobbyist converting a dead game. I appreciate the effort and dedication. I believe they are being done to showcase the skills of the artist - BUT - to sell at huge prices.
