Chuck E. Cheese is opening an adult only arcade called “Chuck’s Arcade”

I guess this is what their aging millennials are asking for - so they provide.

Apparently they immediately about-faced about the adult aspect of it and will be putting lots of kid-oriented stuff in, like the animatronics, so it’s basically a slightly different rehash of their main fare.

So dumb.

I think this could be successful. In D.C., there was basically an adult Chuck E. Cheese called the H Street Country Club that was very similar to this. Skeeball, pinball machines, video games, an indoor putt-putt and a big bar. No children were allowed there because it was a bar. It was a great place to bring a second or third date.

Well they QUICKLY ruined it r2. The appeal is ADULTS ONLY

I’ve had a lot of fun at adult arcades.

So Dave & Busters?

I don't see anyone leaving their house to go to an arcade, no matter what age. This sounds like some exec's fever dream and recollection of his time in arcades in the early 80s.

Home gaming is so much better - at least from what I see. I don't get it - it won't do well.

I'm sure FODCUS groups told them it would be a good idea but nobody is traveling out of their way to go to a Chuck E. Cheese adult arcade.

R6 you say you don’t see anyone leaving their house for an arcade after mentioning Dave & Busters…

R8 - Dave & Busters has food and a bar - plus it's for kids and adults. Just adults only with a bar - no.

I've seen several bars with arcades in them as some sort of pull or draw to get customers in. They're just OK. Nobody gets excited over that stuff.

Oooh exciting! I will be going!

And yes I’m a happy childless unwedded millennial with disposable income.

They’re making it sound kinky.

R9 and this would have a bar and food…. Or at least the original idea did.

Yea, a lot of people would go to this. Clearly you’re out of touch with Millennials and older Gen Z who play video games all day and are all about nostalgia.

Stripper robots.

R12 - then why are the bars that already have this packed to the gills? They're not.

Look up 'arcade bars' - there are 5 of them within 5 mile radius of me. They don't do much better than regular bars in their areas.

I feel like people will go once for Chuck E. nostalgia and that's it. Like Planet Hollywood or Hard Rock.

Basically, this is for gay men. lol

They really should make more shit like this for adults including indoor gymnasiums in the style of Discovery Zone. Make exercise fun and not such a bore.

R14 they do well enough to stay open

Anytime I’ve gone to Dave and Busters it’s mostly young adults there without kids

Chuck E Cheese should merge with whatever's left of Hooters for a truly 'adult experience'. They could call it Chuck E.'s Cheesie Hooters.

I wanna see dick, not hooters.

Chuck E.’s Cheesy Dicks.

Isn’t mixing mice with pizza gross?

Can you stick your dick in a hole in the wall?

Sucha bad idea to introduce alcohol into this scenario but be my guest. I'll never styep in one of those toxic places again after a friend told me about what they've found in the ball pool.

No more Arcade Bars?

R22 = Bryan Singer, asking about the original Chuck e cheez

I am not going anywhere there is fucking kids

Adult arcades? Well, I don’t think much good happens there.
