We made this for Bowling Center Owners and Managers who are looking for a hot new attraction to add to their centers. If you’re looking for more details, read on…
Why Bowling Centers
VR Arcades are going to be popping up all over the United States in the next 2-36 months and Bowling Centers are perfectly suited to lead the charge.
You’re already a pillar in the community
You’ve got tons of customers of all ages coming to your center
Bowling is synonymous with FUN
You likely have some square footage that could be earning you more profit
As the video shows, it is our job to make it super easy for you to open and profit from your own Virtual Reality Arcade. Here are some of the things you’ll need to know:
About the VR Arcade
Most installations are between 3-6 booths
New and improved VR Junkies in Orem, UT
A booth is typically between 8′ x 8′ and 10′ x 10′. A booth includes the VR hardware, software, a TV and a couch (couch not included in our offering)
Booths do not need to be right next to each other. So one can be here, one can be over there and another can be by the bar (or whatever)
People enjoy watching their friends experience VR almost as much as much as doing it themselves
They’re having almost as fun watching as he is playing.
Our software automates many of the processes for you
You’ll love our “business in a box” offering where we give you a turnkey solution
We are private label VR so we can promote your company, not ours
You can own and operate your very own branded 3 booth VR Arcade for under $20,000 down and $600.00 a month (we offer financing too)
With a 20% utilization a 3 booth VR arcade will bring in over $7500 per month
VR is no longer the NEXT big thing. It is the NOW big thing. If you’re ready to learn even more about this exciting opportunity to be ahead of the curve, reach out to us via EMAIL.
One common question we often see is what games are available for our VR arcade. It’s a great question. The fact that people are looking at how to license these games legally makes it even better.
Over 70 Games
You can simply click HERE to learn more about the games. That link will take you to a page with images for each title. Whether you’re on a computer or mobile device you can click each image to learn more about the game. There is a quick paragraph describing each game as well as a video of the game itself. Note: Remember to X out of the description as opposed to hitting the back button. You will find the X in the upper right hand corner. There are also some specifics on each of the games that are very helpful because they allow you to:
Select Your Games Based on Categories
Number of players- Is it single player, co-op or multi-player? The majority of games are single or co-op and we just added a new multi-player.
Movement- Does the game require low, medium or high amounts of movement. Always good to make sure your customers know how much energy they’ll exert.
Difficulty- This rates whether there is a low, medium or high amount of difficulty. We offer a nice blend of low and medium difficulty experiences. We have about 10 that score in the “High Difficulty” category.
AZ Sunshine High Difficulty Extreme Intensity
Intensity: This looks at how involved the game is. Intensity is scored on low, medium, high and extreme. It can change based on several factors like: gory, adult content, language and whether or not math is involved.
This game is crass and VERY funny
Age Group: We have broken down the experiences into different age ranges. The lowest age range is 5+ and we have over 15 titles for this age group. We have almost 30 titles in the 10+ category. We have 10 in the 14+ category and 1 in the 18+ category but it’s not what you’re thinking.
You can shoot Spaceships in VR
Min Play Time: We have titles that are set to a minimum play time of 5 minutes all the way up to 20 minutes. Some games are designed to played as long as people want. Others are experiences that generally take a specific amount of time to get through.
Great Per Minute Rates
At the time of writing, Private Label VR and our sister company, VR Junkies have more VR Arcade locations than any other group in the United States. As a result, we have a compelling story for game developers and they are generally eager to work with us. We can take our great rates with them and share with you. Obviously rates vary by title, but what we are seeing across all of our headsets is between $.07-$.12 per minute. Compared to other VR Arcade licensing platforms this saves you between 25-50% for every minute of play.
What else can Private Label VR do for you?
Our Software Helps Manage Your VR Arcade
Having awesome experiences for your VR Arcade customers is just the beginning of what we do for you. We’ve put together a most comprehensive VR Arcade Management Software to help you manage your business. We are continually adding new features to further automate the processes. Some of the highlights for today’s version include:
In Goggle Game Selection- This makes it super easy for your customers to choose their next experience. It also eliminates the need for an employee to manage this simple task.
Game Play Tracking- We show you exactly how many minutes were played on each title. This is great for knowing which titles are worth keeping and which aren’t. Two things that really make this feature exquisite: 1. We collect data from over 15 different locations (as of 7/13/2017) and can really give guidance as to which experiences are winners and which are less so. 2. We use these numbers to calculate your monthly payments to the game developers and invoice you then pay them directly. This feature is not only great for you, it’s also imperative for our industry. Turns out the creative folks behind these experiences like getting paid too.
