Turning Space Into Profits
What is Rev-Share?
Short for Revenue Sharing, it's exactly what its name implies. NAMCO can install one or more popular coin-operated game or amusement options within your site. You and NAMCO would share the revenues generated from those games.
The coin-operated games offered by NAMCO draw customers to play. They offer an entertainment option that converts wait time into fun, and stimulates incremental spending. Your share of revenues generally far surpasses the average net profit percentage you traditionally generate through your normal business sales, because there is no overhead, labor, or capital costs to consider — only profits.
What Are My Costs to Participate?
There is NO cost to you for equipment, installation, or maintenance service and parts.
How Much Annual Revenue Can Be Generated?
That depends on your traffic and the quantity or type of games that you offer, but generally the average game with a footprint of 2½ feet square generates approximately $6,000 annually. The more games you offer, the more profits you generate.
If you consider that coin-op games can be installed in areas where there is unutilized space, such as entrances, lobbies, or hallways, you can generate profites where you formerly had none.
However, the potential for profits is significant enough that many of our partners have created dedicated space for game-based entertainment — not only as a revenue source, but also as an amenity for their customers.
How Much Space is Required?
As little as 2½ feet square. We work with you to plan the best use of the space you have available.
What Type of Electrical Service is Required?
Regular 110V current, with an outlet for each game.
Do I Have to Maintain My Own Equipment?
No. We have dedicated service employees in the field that perform both routine maintenance and emergency repairs. In addition, we have a customer hotline for service support and overnight shipment of repair parts.
What Type of Game and Amusement Options are Available?
NAMCO offers the widest selection of games and amusements in the industry. You can choose from space-efficient games such as Ms. Pac-Man/Galaga, MO-CAP Boxing, and Golden Tee, to multi-player games such as Cruis'n Exotica and Harley Davidson to exciting recreational-action simulators such as ATV or Dance Dance Revolution. You can choose ticket-dispensing games that provide your customers the opportunity to redeem for prizes or crane games that offer instant merchandise rewards.
Depending on your space requirements and the demographics of your customer base, we can work together to plan the right mix of entertainment to best serve your needs.
Do You Provide Only NAMCO AMERICA Games?
No. We have nearly 30,000 games in our inventory from all coin-op manufacturers, including NAMCO AMERICA, Sega, Midway, ICE, Konami, and more. In fact, NAMCO is generally a coin-op manufacturer's largest customer. We purchase the games that are most popular and will earn you the most revenue, regardless of manufacturer.
Will These Games Appeal Only to Teenagers?
If that were the demographic of your customer base, we would select games that appeal to teenagers. But our inventory includes games and amusements that are popular with all ages, from toddlers to grandparents. The majority of our products are fun for the entire family.
What if I Want to Change Games?
That's fine, in fact we encourage you to rotate your games periodically. Together, we'll review your game mix on a regular basis to determine which games are popular mainstays, which games are ready to be refreshed, and which games aren't as popular with your customers as expected.
What Services Do You Provide?
We provide a full array of services to make your Rev Share Program totally turnkey for you.
We begin by asking some basic questions that will help us determine your needs. Next we plan out your space and select appropriate games. Should you decide that you want to redesign the area that will feature the games, our in-house Design and Construction Department is available to assist you if you wish, for a nominal fee.
NAMCO will install, maintain, and replace your games at no charge to you. Service is provided by NAMCO-trained field employees. Plus, our toll-free customer service hotline is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
We provide strong marketing support to develop awareness and stimulate gameplay in your location, including the option to link with our NAMCOARCADE.COM website.
We provide complete accounting reports via email on a weekly or monthly basis, according to your preference. For multi-site partners, data is specific to location.
Basically, we've structured our services so there is virtually nothing that you have to do except deposit your revenues.
Is NAMCO an American Company?
Yes. We are a part of multi-national NAMCO LIMITED. Divisions include NAMCO AMERICA(commercial games), and NAMCO CYBERTAINMENT, which is commonly known as NAMCO (retail operations and management).
