How much do i pay to put arcade in a business?

Especially if going into a location where there are a lot of Hispanic customers. Soccer games are popular with the crowd.

A guy bought my World Cop Soccer pinball machine to put in his laundromat.

We might be overestimating the popularity of arcade games here. Putting a couple games on location isn't the same as opening a Dave & Busters. A commercial location that is giving up space and electricity isn't going to be about it for 0% - I think in your wildest dreams 75/25 would be killer - And I don't know if that has ever happened.

Actually, I currently have five games on location and I keep 100% of the profit. This is a one in a million instance, but the owners of a local pub/deli approached me about putting some games in, I had never done anything like that, aside from the three games I keep in my girlfriends clothing store (that way guys have something to do while their ladies shop) so I agreed, and after sitting down with the owners and explaining to them I am not a big operator, that I do this as a hobby, and any profits would be used to go back into the games, they agreed to let me keep all the money, and this far they have been extremely happy with the customers the games bring in. I'm sure this is an isolated situation though, but not unheard of.
