And thank you, and I hope you have lots of success with your game.
I would love to start doing the coin-op thing too. That is the business plan for the future, but hopefully not that far into the future.
If I can keep the cost of the units to a reasonable price point, I'm hoping restaurants, bars, etc. might take the risk to try them out. Maybe even drop a few into local places here to get a feel for the cashflow they would bring in.
There is a lot going on in my business plan right now, but a lot of it is centering around the indie development community. If the games are not there, then their really isn't a point. But I have been very impressed with arcade style games coming out of blitz and dxgame engines, that I figure why not give it a shot. Plus, give these smaller developers a shot.
You figure, if a place of business bought a full size cabinet unit from me (say 2,000-2500 for base unit) and an exclusive license to one of your games. (200- 1000 dollars or whatever).
Now, if that machine brings in only 10 dollars a day, it would take a year to pay it off. 10 dollars a day doesn't seem like much to be in a high traffic area. But again, those are my hopes :).
