So they’re copying Dave and Busters by trying to become what they should have stayed to begin with.
Not gonna work. Dave and Busters is terrible.
But get some cool animatronic shows, .25 cent arcade games from the 80s- 90s, maybe even a few amusement center rides like the old Scandia centers had (go karts, suspended rides, bumper boats, mini golf). THAT would be worthwhile.
It’ll work. Millennial nostalgia is a cash cow. There are multiple arcade bars in my area that seem to do pretty well.
…actually, rereading the article, I don’t see that they’ll serve alcohol. Or food at all, for that matter. And it looks like they’re building them out of empty mall tenancies.
Yeah, it’s not gonna work.
I go to a local arcade bar all the time (hubs loves Stepmaniax), I see tons of parents taking their kids there. There’s usually people in the bar area if you don’t go at like, 11 am. It honestly seems like a great business plan, new and classic arcade games, catered to both children and their parents simultaneously?
They call it: funflation.
No. You made that up and now you’re calling it that. I hate these basic-ass brainwashing media outlets so much.
Is Good Morning America just ads disguised as news?
It’s crazy how many cool local arcades exist on the West Coast of the US.
I lived in the East Coast and they’re all shitty chains like Dave and Busters, selling you $20 microwaved chicken wings and watered down beer, while charging you $3.42 in D&B Fake bucks to play Mortal Kombat 3.
While West Coast, you spend $10 to play hundreds of SNES games and they give you a bowl of Fruit loops and milk so you can relieve your childhood.
There’s a place in my city that has all the classic consoles for people to play at their table. There’s another place that’s just pinball machines
