do you think my local tcg shoppe would be interested in making room for a console and couch coop if i helped pay for it?>live in a big village>would love to play couch coop but can't find any clubs>we do have a tcg shop which i have visited once or twice>thinking of visiting and asking the owner if he would be interestedthen i could drop by whenever i wanted and hopefully play with others
>>98026695Sounds like a separate business someone should open.
>>98026744that sounds way too big and expensive
>>98026695Couches are too expensive to clean after stinky TCG players sit on it. Use a bench instead.
>>98026859Far too uncomfortable, and dangerous if thrown when your local sperg has an episode. Let me suggest the Celeste three-seater foam couch>Commercial tear-resistant healthcare vinyl - resistant to all bodily fluids>Antibacterial & antimicrobial coated>High-resilient 10 year warranty Dunlop Enduro foam - plush top-layer foam for comfort, high-density structural base foam for extra stability and support>No sharp edges>Flame retardant to AS/NZS 3744.3>Tamper-proof covers>Fully concealed non-accessible zip>Sleek and stylish
>>98027267>filenamekek
>>98027267yeah, i'm thinking comfy
>>98027267This.>>98026695I mean, do they have room for it? It's not the worst idea ever, particularly if they have a side line on snacks.
>>98026748Fair, but I think trying to appeal to two separate groups is how you lose appeal for both.
>>98026695Why don't you ask them?
>>98026695>then i could drop by whenever i wanted and hopefully play with othersWhenever you want? Good luck. All the kids whose parents don't love them have just chosen that couch as their favourite after school and weekend haunt and you'll be like 50th in line, assuming they haven't broken the controllers by then.>if i helped pay for itYou going to pay the ongoing costs for new games and clean up too?I don't think they'd be interested but since you're not a regular it's a bit rude for you a stranger to try to get them to change things for your liking.
My LGS had a coop corner for a while until it was turned into storage space for MtG cards because card investing took off locally.
>>98026695Three main questions here:1. Do they have un-utilized space for the couches, consoles, players, sound mitigation to keep the couch coop players from disrupting other activities (and vice versa)?2. What is the monetization potential? Rental fees, Concessions, Etc3. What are the ongoing costs of hosting?Even if there are good answers for all of these things, the game shop may feel that it’s outside of their core vision and decline to let you, but if there are no good answers for these three questions, they’ll never agree even if they are otherwise amenable to the idea.
>>98034243still no reply
>>98031835>All the kids whose parents don't love them have just chosen that couch as their favourite after school and weekend hauntThis is what happened to my local GW after a few years. It was a mall location and at some point parents started dropping their kids off there like it was the mall's daycare centre. Completely ruin the vibe.
>>98040897What kind of retard parent thinks the local redshirt is a good child wrangler?
>>98041002One of the redshirts got fired because he grabbed a kid trying to run out of the store with a stolen box. I was not there to see it but apparently it turned into a complete shit show when the parents had to go to mall security to collect their brat.

>>98027267>dangerous if thrown when your local sperg has an episode.That's why you bolt it down. If an Autist can pick up much less rip one out of it's bolts, he doesn't need the Bench to wreak havoc.
