Take 1 I guess : I drew former employee (I still consider her to be current employee 🥹) Natalie as the winner - in the interest of fairness I will draw this again - what are the odds 😆

I get messages pretty regularly from people who want to open an arcade.
Some are dreaming. Some are serious.
Some just want to know if it’s even possible anymore.
In this episode of Continue?, I talk briefly about who I am, what Retrovolt Arcade is, how we got here, and what kind of mind set it takes to start.
This is not a masterclass.
It’s not a sales pitch.
It’s just a real perspective from someone in it every day.
If you’re thinking about opening an arcade, or you’re just curious what goes into keeping one alive, this series might be for you.
Topics covered:
• What Retrovolt Arcade actually is
• Why we opened
• What surprised me most
• Basic realities of the arcade business
• A few practical tips for getting started
Running an arcade looks nostalgic from the outside.
From the inside, it’s a constant decision to hit Continue.
If you have questions, drop them in the comments. Future episodes might come directly from them.

But the question keeps coming.

We never have and we never will.

We operate on a free play model and we try to keep our prices as cheap as we possibly can. Unfortunately over the years we have noticed a growing number of people coming to the arcade with a group and claiming they are “only going to watch”. Most of the time they end up playing because “the games are on free play anyway.”
I would encourage guests to take advantage of our low entry prices and group discounts and support us in our efforts to keep the arcade going for everyone.
Not paying and then playing the games anyway is taking away from paying guests and from us. I sincerely thank everyone who has ever supported us.
We have a strict no spectator policy for birthday parties and events. Please include everyone who will be attending your event. Playing or not.
The ONLY exception is for small babies in strollers.
If we are not busy we will allow parents, guardians or caregivers into the arcade free of charge as a spectator with their group. You will be given a sticker with “WATCH” written on it instead of our usual time sticker for paying guests.
If you are found playing games while wearing a “watch” sticker you will be asked to pay and if you do not wish to do so you will be asked to wait outside.
If we are busy all guests will be asked to pay admission as they enter the arcade.
