Ever since the last machines were brought off location in 1997 (KISS and Star Trek), I wanted to try locating machines, but the "red tape" has always bothered me. You need a permit and a SAFE location, not a machine tucked around a corner where it can easily be vandalized. The machines located in Melbourne's northern suburbs are filthy and I've never seen one in perfect working condition. not sure who the operator is - and I assume it is one operator, as there seems to be no competition - all machines are neglected. I would easily be able to provide better games with better service, but the games would have to be in well lit and supervised areas. I was going to operate the Theater of Magic before I received an offer for it.
Years ago, I was working towards having a shopfront with 10 EMs and 10 SS machines - on 20c per game, but I didn't get very far as all the games sold very quickly !
