    My local pinball spot Uptown Pinball originally focused on pinball, but soon realized the money was in bringing in kids. His spot is setup with pinball on one side and all the skeeball, driving games, shooters, pool table, air hockey, basketball, etc. on the other side. In order to bring in more business, I would add some things like skeeball, foosball, pool tables. He charges a flat $12 a day charge, everything on free play. You can make money, but have to have items to bring people in and keep them coming back. He also gives free chips and can drink to every customer

    Quoted from pookycade:

    Have the ability to add some 30 video games, just no space unless we pull some pins. But I suspect you are spot on here. When we see 30 Pinball’s we all go “wow 30 pinball machines !” I suspect kids say “this is boorrring”.

    30 pins is amazing!! Just make sure you have some other added entertainment to bring in the casual fans and hopefully they will learn about pinball. I think in order for you to increase customers, and to succeed, you need to offer up other options. Good luck!!
