Always allocate 65 square feet per game with open design and sightlines.

Do you have any guidelines on how to calculate arcade game earnings for planning purposes? Location with 40 games:

  • Square feet (2600 / 65 per game = 40 games)
  • Purchase of 40 Games @ average of $11,000.00 per game = $440,000.00
  • Average earnings of 40 games @ $200.00 per game / per wk. x 52 wks. = $416,000.00 yr.
  • Average room payout of 28% = $101,920.00
  • Total earnings = $416,000.00 – Payout – $101,920.00 = $314,080.00 yr.

 

Location with 20 games:

  • Square feet (1300 / 65 per game = 20 games)
  • Purchase of 20 Games @ average of $11,000.00 per game = $220,000.00
  • Average earnings of 20 games @ $200.00 per game / per wk. x 52 wks. = $208,000.00 yr.
  • Average room payout of 28% = $50,960.00
  • Total earnings = $208,000.00 – Payout – $50,960.00 = $157,040.00
