Good day Steemians, it is another beautiful day. To my gamers family out there this topic is richly needed by us.
Alot of persons have been asking me this few days demanding to know what the cost of setting up a gaming center will take. This August question demand a cool answer , an answer with the right guide. This has truly giving me sleepless night because i need to guide them properly.
We can see that since the 190s, gaming has grown to be source of rest for others while to some, is a source of income but whatsoever factors or category it falls under, we can see that the love for gaming has increased and 80% of world population has adopted it. Games can be seen in either our phones or game center. It will be hard at this present computer age to hold someone"s phone without seeing one or two games and same applies to gaming center. On my own part i will say gaming has come to stay and alot has already been addicted by the gaming virus.
In bid to give them the proper guide, i decide to go out and ask some other persons. I need seek words of advice from different persons and use that to draw my own guide.
I must tell you, setting up a business is not easy not to talk of setting up a gaming mall. Alot must be put in place. We should not just have the mindset that gaming center is not all about buying Console, there is more to it. Alot of things ranging from physical, mental and social factors must be put in place. Considering those fact will help to get your feet up and running and makes your preparation for the upcoming task wonderful.
Setting up a gaming center just like in other business requires your time, effort, dedication and ability at first. Alot of persons marvel me at this point. Some will set up the business and put in less focus while some lay the responsibilities on their managers. You own your business, you should first nurture it before allowing others to get their hands on it. People fail on this category and i must say is not the best things to do.
I made mention of physical factors above, it is one key part we should focus on. By physical factors, i mean the environmental response should be considered. An environment with age 70-80 do you think such people needs gaming center? The answer is probably No. The reason is at such age stage of life, they will be focusing more on their breeds and not gaming. I dont see any playing at that age but if they doz it will be a percentage of little like 10/100% . But if this same business is been set up in an environment of surrounding youth between 10-30 years, you wont need to do advert before you get them tripping into your mall. The youth is the main focus when settling up a gaming center.
PHYSICAL GUIDE:
TAKE A LOOK AT THE SURROUNDING BEFORE APPLYING FOR A SET UP
CHECK FOR AGE FACTORS: this aspect should not be toyed with. Age 10-30 is a good age to target when opening a gaming center.
- CHECK FOR ELECTRICITY FACTORS: Some places here don't always have light will it be advisable to run a new business in such environment, i will say No, holding to the fact that other need will surely arise
The SOCIAL ASPECT: This aspect involves your ability to be able to relate to alot of persons. Remember as our face is different, so is our mind also. You will come across different categories of persons who will annoy you in one way or the other, you should put in all you best to avoid this else you crippled your business. You have to make sure your response to their attitude is always the right one as the popular saying, customers is always right.
SOCIAL GUIDE
Always listen to your customer
Ask them what they need from you.
You can have interactive session of like once evey 6 months with some of your customers
When making rules in respect to gaming price, try notify them ahead and see their reaction. (this aspect if not properly conveyed can lead to set back in your game center).
.Always improve on the aspect you feel is lacking. Upgrade your store physical look and if the there is need for upgrading your game console, please do.
customers is always right
notify them of price changes before you implement it.
From then till date, there has been large numbers of game that has been introduced and out of all, SOCCER HAS BEEN DOING PRETTY FINE holding to the fact that 70% of the word population loves the football game and the ability for you to be able to select your teams and embark on tournament has make it more funnier. So while thinking of setting up a game center business, soccer should be your main focus as other game comes on under.

SETTING UP A GAME CENTER I will say it takes from 100 to millions to set up a gaming center. Setting up video gaming center depends on how much you are worth and also consider daily spending like running a gen. But a standard gaming center should start from thousands to millions. I will say game requires capital intensive to start. But you can still start small and end up big.
Some things you need.
Game center: like as i said earlier, a good game center attracts more customers so choose a good place and you will definitely not regret it. The game center should be targeted to game lovers. The size of the place should be looked into but sometimes the size affect base on the location you find your game store. A lot of centers wants to increase their center but been a temporary center, they have to cope with the situation. I will say the cost to set up a shop varies depending on it location.
In addition, you can classify the center for kids and adult if eventually you have a good gaming space.
Generator: in space for power shortage this can help to act as a cover up as we all knows that the gaming world requires constant electricity to run it.
Televisions: This is needed to display your games so the gamers can see it. Buying more tvs depends on the increase in demand of game time by gamers. If you see that people always queue up, you can save your self from such mess by buying more tvs.
Chairs: a good spot to seat down is required. Not just for sitting down but it should provide comfort. Not the type you will seat down and wont be comfortable. This attracts customers also.
Electrical appliance: endeavor to do proper wiring connection. You should be safety conscious
Ventilation: the place should be properly ventilation to reduce suffocation as games produces heat alot. You can set up an Air conditioner to make it more cooler.
Games you need:
Soccer has been the number one look at for. So you should consider it as your number one game. Always stay updated in case there is latest version, try upgrade to it. People love seeing new things so get ready to always upgrade as upgrade is been rolled out. Like soccer you need buy new version as it rolls out. But above all, you need get a console to start with and also study what your environment needs before you embark on a start.
Other games include:
Xbox360
Ps4
Ps3
Pes2
Nitendods
Etc
To make gain from the game center, you have to set up your own playing time. Like soccer, We set the timing per game to be 10mins. It depends on your agreement but majority uses the 10mins margin. So you choose your game margin uses it to effect price and the price differs from that of Gen also. So incan charge 50/game so 50*6 =300, so you make 300 every 1hr that is a cool money. Make sure you motivate them by giving them an extra run of game. Like where i reside, they will give you 1 game for every 5game so that is a cool deal.
advice
you dont need to buy everything new, you can start with old consoles then as time goes on, you buy new one if need arises.
gaming has come to stay
