I think it's awesome.

There's a really cool place like this in Brooklyn, called Barcade.

Thanks for taking the time out to check out the article and commenting! While I know videogames and Vegas seem like an odd combination, by sprinkling cocktail waitresses, bottle service and a jumping nightlife we definitely 'Vegas' it up. That and weekly tournaments for cash (NBA2K & Madden especially) might make the doubters change their minds!

I think it's a great idea. For the 20-30 age group. A lot of us grew up on the NES, SNES, Genesis, but also play the 360's and PS3's of today. This group also can drink with the best of them. A lot of times you'll have friends over to drink and play games. It just makes sense to combine the two at a professional establishment.

Let's see how many controllers they have to replace, though.

I think it's a cool idea. I'd love to run my own Arcade dedicated to sports games...

Great in theory, hard to make a success IRL imo.

Unless you can find a way to attract women to a bar like this it's going to be fighting an uphill battle. No-one wants to be hanging out it a bar full of only dudes so attracting females to the bar should be a priority.

I agree that it will kill on game convention weekends.

Best of luck with it.

I think it's a great idea. I wish I had to the money to open something like this in my area.
