In South Sac? I dunno 'bout that TBH....
this.It would definitely be profitable for people looking for a general hang out spot to just chill and maybe catch a bite or something, the games would add to the atmosphere . . . I say go for it, OP . . .
The business model has changed man. Old school arcade games only isn't profitable unless you are in/near a tourist attraction. You might as well open a video rental storeI'm definitely not going for the Dave and Busters feel. I hate DnB, I want this to have the more friendly mom and pop feel of your neighborhood arcade..

The business model has changed man. Old school arcade games only isn't profitable unless you are in/near a tourist attraction. You might as well open a video rental store . The main question you have to ask is "what is going to drawn in non-gamers and women?" The whole play video games into the wee hours of the night aint realistic. Unless you can a find a hardcore demographic in your area I don't see this working. You need repeat business. Why would I come back to this place over and over? The games? Nawwww. You need a great atmosphere. I'm not spending a friday night playing arcade games on a consistent basis unless women, alcohol, and good looking people are around. I can't see this working without food either. Food and drinks will give people a reason to come there and stay there.
yeah no need for a full menu. sounds good so far. something like this you want to keep classy and clean. I'd suggest a slight dress code.What will draw people here? All three will compliment eachother. Alcohol, food, and cheap arcade games. Not a full menu though, just probably a typical bar/finger food menu. My plan would be to place it in a location in close proximity with other bars in a walkable area downtown/midtown area, to take advantage of the bar hopping crowd especially from thursday-sat. If I'm charging .25 a game, I'm obviously not relying on getting a significant amount of revenue from the games.

YO! I've been there in Downtown Las Vegas! That place was crackin' like a mug! They had old and new games in there.Like this? http://www.insertcoinslv.com/
figured that but where? what's the name of the place?williamsburg
OP maybe instead of arcade games you use old gaming systems. Like NES and Atari. If you cop a SEGA Genesis I'd come through.
It can be a fun place for families. For example if you visit Vegas, a highly populated area. Kids don't really want to go to the casinos. They want to go somewhere where they can have fun, and a highly attracted arcade with lots of lights to attract attention would be great.Why would tourists be INDOORS playing video games?
lmfao.
might as sell, sell candy, white Ts, illegal drinks
what type of ghetto haven are you guys trying to create?

No.
People can play their arcade games on their PCs.
No and just NO.
And having the ability to play movies at home has taken away $ from the box office.Way to miss the point. Playing it on an actual arcade cabinet where other people are physically there is part of the overall experience, not just the act of playing the game itself. Just like going to the cinema is a social experience more than about just getting to see the movie.
