Thinking of buying an arcade room

A video game arcade cabinet, also known as a video arcade machine or video coin-op, is the housing within which a video arcade game's hardware resides. Most cabinets designed since the 1990's conform to the JAMMA wiring standard.

Thinking of buying an arcade room

Post by /Arcade »


Hi all! First post here (and Reddit in general), I hope I get this right.

I'm thinking of buying an arcade room/business that's currently located inside a hotel. There's about 20+ games including pinball, ice hockey table, claw machines, bike rides, etc.

The current operational model is, imo, really outdated (see having to walk 100 ft to reception to get tokens). This is mostly due to lack of trust between current owner and hotel, as revenue is split roughly 50:50.

I would like to suggest a way for the hotel to monitor revenue for each game, via an online portal or similar, as well as the number of dispensed tokens. Is there a way to do this? Via some kind of device retrofit? I've not had much luck online with this so I'm reaching out to the experts .

Many thanks
