Big fan from the UK. Great stuff as always… been watching since the beginning. Fun to see the walkthrough from empty building compared to the way it is now. So glad it’s all gone to plan. Keep the videos coming!
If you ever do a part 3, would be interesting to hear about what mistakes you made along the way, and/or things you would've done differently in hindsight.
Big fan from California here! I love your channel, its such a great escape. Thank you for sharing your story getting the Electric Starship started. I hope to one day go to The Starship
This is awesome. I can't wait to get in to play Tales from the Crypt. I didn't know you had a Mr. Do! and converted it. Hopefully you'll pick up another Mr. Do! at some point. It's a great game. Tell the Crypt Keeper to keep his head on this season. I really wanna play it. Hope the next expansion goes South into the entire area. You know what I'm talk'n about. Ha. Great video and can't wait to see how you decorated the Starship up this year.
Hey, I recently came across your video and love your story. My son has ambitions of opening an arcade, he is in his 30s. How many games did you open your arcade with, how big a space do you have, about how much did it cost to prep your space with any electrical, or plumbing, or other costs to get started? Also, are you located in an area with a high population, or a smaller town? And if you dont mind just any general advice for someone starting up for the first time, or things you would have done different. Thanks so much and keep the videos coming!
You can have him email me at mike@electricstarshiparcade.com to discuss as I love to help anyway I can. To answer a few of your questions, we opened with 80 or so games, we started with just 5,811 sq ft and expanded up to 7,000 after about year and a half, the space we moved into was built out nicely but I spent $50k upgrading things to our liking. We are in a small town in a big metroplex (DFW) with a ton of arcades and entertainment options.

Thank you Beans! I’m so glad you like the channel. It’s neat to to know that someone way over in the UK likes what we are doing here.
Before and After comparisons are always exciting to watch! Seeing the effort put into the arcade makes me appreciate my home away from home even more.
Hey Chandler
Thank you Chandler, we love having you be a part of our arcade family.
Really, really enjoyed watching both videos in this series. Literally years of work went into them. Awesome stuff!
Thank you, I’m glad you liked them.
Really cool to see how it all started, you guys have put in so much work. Hopefully see you when I'm back over in June! :)

I'm doing my bi-annual "arcade walkabout" this time throughout the Midwest in June! You guys are definitely on the list! Such a cool looking place!
Thank you soo much! We will love having you come hang out.
Hey, mint chocolate chip was always my favorite ice cream flavor! lol. Really appreciate these long form videos of how the arcade came to be!

All the best to the starship 👍
