Post subject: Arcade Manager's Survey
|
|
|
|
I recently ran into the Game Manager for Mountasia @ Willobrook here in Houston, TX and convinced him to fill out a survey about the benifits of DDR, that way I can pass that along to Arcades in my home town of Stillwater, OK and try to convince them that DDR is good for buisness. However, I need your help for questions to ask on the Survey.
These are the only ones I can think of thus far:
'After Purchasing Dance Dance Revolution did your company experience a gain in profit?'
'What influenced your decision to aquire Dance Dance Revolution?'
'Has Dance Dance Revolution Payed for itself?'
'Would you recommend Dance Dance Revolution to other vendors?'
I'll take the best questions and create a form for which I can have the manager fill out. If this works out, i'll post the completed form for others to use to convince their local arcades to aquire DDR. _________________ I'm getting too old for this. :SNAP: OH GOD, MY HIP! |

"What are the maintanace costs incurred by DDR?"
"What are the profit returns from DDR?" _________________ The problem with America is stupidity. I'm not saying there should be a capital punishment for stupidity, but why don't we just take the safety labels off of everything and let the problem solve itself? |

'Did you see an increase of customers at your arcade after purchasing a Dance Dance Revolution cabinet?' _________________ There is limited intelligence in the galaxy, but the stupidity of the universe is infinite. |

No, now go back to your Japanese Ass grabbing game. _________________ I'm getting too old for this. :SNAP: OH GOD, MY HIP! |

It's ass poking, not ass grabbing. _________________ I am Jack's Fight Club reference. |

Why even bother with DDR? Wouldn't you rather play the new game that's hot in the middle east? Donkey Punch Bros. You see, it's much like poking asses but you're punching them instead. It's all the rage over there, the kids just love doing the donkey punch. Sometimes they even get their parents into that sweet sweet hot donkey punch action.

What secondary steps have you taken to encourage use of your DDR machine? (i.e. sitting space; fans, cooler AC settings; machine placement, such as keeping it away from other sources of noise, making sure no glare exists on the screen, or placing the machine in either a more private or public place in the arcade; easy access to exercise-friendly beverages, such as water and sports drinks; slackening of 'no beverages' policies near the DDR machine; or creating a system to effectively handle lines at your DDR machine.)
Have you noticed increased patronage or time spent playing DDR (or other games in your arcade) due to these changes, if they weren't in place when the machine was purchased?
And one for my arcades around town (or any in a place where the arcade is just somewhere to stick their kids):
Have you noticed a loss or gain in average time spent per customer in the arcade in relation to the prices charged by machines.
That last one is important to me because the casino arcade managers don't seem to care that a child's discretionary income is fixed, and how long a parent spends in a casino is dependant on how long that discretionary income lasts. _________________ This space left intentionally blank.

Because "Turkey Puncher" is more fun?
DDR isn't even that big in Japan last I heard/saw- the machines in the arcades it was in were at the very back, where the old stuff usually goes. It's all about the new Initial D game and House of the Dead 3. ...And the weird game where you put out fires. Yeah. No idea why that was there.
Question for the arcades- Does the location of the machine make a difference in its usage?
And someone better know what the Turkey Puncher thing is about. _________________ Ice cream has this erotic sense to it- kinda like the one choclate and strawberries have.
