Ichiban Arcade Project

Postby Ichiban Arcade on Sun Aug 22, 2010 8:02 pm

Hi people. My name is Erik Lopez and i am working on something called the "Ichiban Arcade Project." Basically its a project to open up an arcade that will be the best arcade you have ever been to or heard of. For more info go to www.fngarcade.com

I came here to ask the arcade community for help on what to do and what not to do to make the Ichiban Arcade project a success. Any kind of information will help a lot like: lease info, licenses info, revenue info, expenses info, etc. I also have a Questions and Concerns form at www.fngarcade.com/ContactUs, you can ask or say anything you would like to say.

Thanks in advance for any and all help :mrgreen:

What about instead of leasing cabinets, try to buy (and maybe even refurbish) cabs off eBay and eventually end up with a huge collection? That way you will have less expenses and also own the cabinets yourself (I know a lot of arcades used to own all the machines themselves). Either way, looks like an awesome project. Make sure you keep us updated!
