    My son-in-law just closed on a restaurant and bar yesterday and he wants me to operate a pin or two, new games.

    It will be a family-style restaurant with a bar in a separate room.

    What would you guys recommend for a title for this first game?

    I know that I'll have to have a local county license and insurance, but what else do I need? How much to charge per game: 50 cents, 75 cents, a dollar per game? I want to find out what I'm getting into before I jump willy-nilly off the deep end.

    Thanks for your suggestions,

    Alan

    Quoted from jonesjb:

    Why do they need to be new? As in Sterns?

    Well, because it's the first store of his own, he wants everything to be new and looking sharp. I understand that a nice off route or HUO machine can look almost as good as new, but wants the "WOW" factor for his customers. His place, his call. Plus, I get to keep all the income.

    But I'm also concerned that a machine could become "stale" after a few months and without multiple locations, that might become a problem for me.

    Operators, what else do I need to learn?
