I'm not convinced of this one ... although it could be the way that I look at things.
Every candy that I have ever seen come off route needs about as much attention as a wooden cab coming off route, despite being younger.

- old candy cab is the same oldschool how american, different is only style not age.
candy cab is closer to coctail oldschoolcab, candy is only natural evolution metal coctail cab in japan, shape candy it is not a "modern" style cab

The Japanese have been sitting on their keisters while playing pachinko for a hell of a lot longer than there have been arcade games. The Candy cabs are simply the result of the cultural difference. Either you like the idea, or you don't. It's not hard to imagine folks who lived through the 80's in the USA not caring much for the design.

sorry i lost "80% is metal"
metal does not rot, easy to paint it again
personally I like Williams cab design (MK series)
in euro on '80 I never see candy cab (sometime jap metal coctail) and wood cab is normal for me but I never say "candy cab it is not oldschool" because it is nonsense
Grasshopper:
It's a bit of a stretch to describe the wooden cabinets as being quintessentially American. In the eighties practically all cabinets, including the Japanese ones, were made of wood.
The Japanese kick started the video games craze with classic games such as Pacman, Space Invaders, Donkey Kong etc. All of those games were housed in wooden cabinets.
