Game Center Business, Advice Pls by 6gozi(m): 7:33pm On Apr 02, 2016
I have a plan of starting up a game center in port harcourt, I just need someone with experience either as a game center owner or worker, or player, Who can advice on anything that I need to know. What are the downside of running such a business and are there any laws that requires one to own a license for this kind of business? Just tell me something that I need to know

I use to have a video game center in 2013, I was robbed dts y it crumbled. Game centre is a vry good business if u know your onion. Packaging matters a lot. In mine I used to have 4 flat screen TVs which comprised of 3 PS2 n 1 PS3. I startd the game centre with a soccer tournament which brought customers from all unimaginable place to patronise me..it ws a grt experience. 32 players in the tournament,each registering with N500. Dts able 16k, 1 position went home wit 5K, second went home wit 3k third I gave 2k. The finals ws crazy, I remember it was on a sunday nite, I used a project n speakers outside the premises of my game centre. I made first half lyk a real first hlf..gave d players refreshment. The crowd there was uncontrollable. The next week my game centre was filled up to d brim..so bro I wish u d best. Remember advert/awareness matters a lot the tournament was my own form of making awareness. N mk sure small kids dnt come der in their school uniform..it cn put u in big trouble. Mk sure bad guys dnt cm der to smoke n high, gambling is cool bt do it codedly cos u won't lyk police ish..

Are there licences one needs to acquire? You know some of these games have "non-commercial" agreements. So I will like to know if these common games like FIFA on PS4/XBox One can be used for commercial purposes

I like people like you who are selfless and motivating in sharing and sponsoring ideals. I just started considering this idea. Thanks.
