Opening an arcade

<< < (4/6) > >>

Does anyone know if Dave and Busters or ESPNzone made back those big investments?  Those places are nice, are they getting it done with all that cash?

paigeoliver:
Dave & Busters is in the restaurant business, not the arcade business. The arcade is merely a draw for restaurant and bar customers. The restaurant and bar is the profitable part of the business, not the arcade.

That is why I suggested opening a Cici's Pizza franchise, they are profitable and it is going to have a much lower cost of entry than a Dave & Buster's or any other game friendly location.

monkeybomb:
hmm, ESPNzone is also a restaurant so the same probably applies there :(

Gameworks went out of business?? I've been to the one in Arizona, but that was like 6 years ago. Damn, I was hoping I'd have something to look forward to if I got stationed in Guam.  :-\
