Fair enough, but I have a number of challenges
1. Parents
2. Location ( I was so silly to locate it in a market) and I had paid for it b4 I realised my error.
3. The idiots around my shop are the greenest snitches I have ever seen. They see a child coming out of my shop, if they recognise the kid, they go tell his parents. I have stopped greeting them. Fxck them
4. Generator, thankfully I just got a new one, the old one ate my pocket finish.
5. I need more games, I am stuck with 2 Ps2 games and 1 ps3. I need to buy more ps3 ps4 and xbox...
6. Space, the shop is too small, I don't know what I was thinking to collect that cave and pay rent
7. Fluctuations in return. Some days i make about 5k while some days I pray to see 2k...
8. Basically I need growth from that shop, I need to grow from there to another place and make good money. But with all these listed points I am sure not to make the same mistakes again. I have just been there 2/3 months and I am hoping to get some funds to move out from there. I no need to finish my rent.
9. If you feel it in your heart to support me kindly do so.

With inverter, you wont on gen unless its worth it, im not sure about the area but with time and policy adjustments, you will grow it to 10/15 daily, confirm if there are competitors around, adjust your price or game time to beat them, anyone who brings a new customer for you get to play up to 5 free games with the customer, only the customer pays for his game

Inverter is about 70 to 100k,toks battery 70kx2,new 130x2,its just the first rush, dont let them steal things, dont get to playful with them, concentrate on their comfort and security, not adding more games alone, are the fans enough? Do these so you can maintain your customers after d first rush

Now imagine joining the two... That's what keeps yours interesting and different.. Reward your gamers even with virtual stuff that they can't win just like in lottery.

Dude, that's a great idea! You can still make money on this in 2023, as there are a lot of people who prefer to go outside, go to the store the old-fashioned way and buy a game. I'm one of those people. And do you know what else I would appreciate? If there were a couple of devices in the store with access to the Internet where you can go to such service sites as those listed here farmingless.com and buy/sell something (like a skin, item). That would be great because paid items are one of the most important components of any game.

Get a good shop location dat is strategically closer to a local market or community garage park or not far from a day-public sec. school. Not neccessarily an open and obvious shop, jst any cornershop one can easily walk into, not d ones in upstairs Ooo! If u hav good n frequent nepa d beta and less stress on your 1.5+kva gen. Lutan or fireman brand & one mini industrial standing fan ox or nexus brand. Neatly used or new wat ever ur budget may be and most importantly a thicker chain to lock d gen to an anchor inside d shop always after d close of business day. Start with two tv at least 27 inches & two ps3 consoles but as time goes add another ps3 & tv too (always do crowd control esp. to kids age 9-15, once dey are done playing, somehow drive dem harshly to go home dat u dont want crowd in here (trust me, dey ll always be back nex time again) Depending on how well u utilize space. Add a ps4 & 45-55 inch tv. Games lyk GTA V, God of war, MK, Pes22, blur on ps3 (Fifa22 + NFS + mk11 + GOW4 + PES 22, GTA V on ps4)

You have really helped and I will be following this thread. I'm in Kaduna and I'm thinking of this studio. I want to add VR though. I sincerely need someone who would help with other items needed and even set up. My budget is around 2.5m

I met with the baddest game guru on Nairaland, CRAFTEK and he invited me to his game shop at mushin.
He gave me some advices on how to start and grow the business.
I felt really INSPIRED, and he also invited me to his restaurant /lounge and he bought me 2 bottles of Trophy.
I went home loaded and inspired , up next I will be posting my progress on my own game shop.

Follow this thread to see my progress recorded

Bro, please which state are you?
Re: Advice Needed, How Do I Set Up My Game Shop by NACE13: 10:33pm On Dec 05, 2022
Nice one.
My brother has always wanted to startup a game house but we both have no knowledge on how to go about it. I'll send this thread's link to him. He already has about 3 TVs ready, and I'm wiling to add mine to make it happen.
We can start with two PS3s and three PS2s.

If you make some things public it will be taken for granted and eventually lost its value. Keep the secret of your business to yourself. If any one is serious they will look for knowledge

Boss abeg can I have your WhatsApp contact
