Home Arcade Book Idea

[Shavenyak]

I love the idea. I'd get one. I would want to see pics of various gamerooms and the collections. I wouldn't care if some of the gamrooms have duplicate titles. I enjoy viewing the layouts and other items that make a gameroom (decorations, etc.)

I've had this book idea running through my head for a few months and need some feedback from the KLOV community. This book would feature home arcades and their collectors. I can see a two page spread per collector with full color pictures and a write-up about how the collection came to be, number of machines and extras, and general information. I know there are tons of incredible home game rooms around the world and wouldn't think there would be a shortage of game rooms to showcase.

I do have a book agent (of course he might think this is a terrible idea for a book) who sold my humor book called LETTERS TO EBAY to Warner Books (now called Grand Central Publishing)

and I know the book business pretty well. So, does anyone think this book would have any merit? Obviously the KLOV would be a great resource and I'm sure there are some incredible game rooms out there that have yet to be discovered. I just wouldn't think that the market for this type of book would be very broad. Any other suggestions?

I have the beta copy of the book in my hands. I'll need to tweak a few little things over the weekend, but other than that, it'll be ready for purchase by Monday. It took just 4 days to arrive to my house from San Franny.

One more little preview for you guys. I'm in the process of uploading the finished product. This is pretty much the style the content follows. Shouldn't be too long now...

Now that, is a good looking preview. That looks like a winner to me.
