Running A Rural Arcade Business in Small Town America, Bad Axe Retrocade with Shar | Ep 179
from In The Scene: Indie Arcade Wave · host Indie Arcade Wave
Eh, Yo! This week we dive into what it's like running a rural arcade business in small-town America. I'm joined by Shar one of the owners of Bad Axe Retrocade in Bad Axe, Michigan. Bad Axe has a population of just over 3,000 people, and Bad Axe Retrocade is the only classic rural arcade for over 45 minutes. We spoke with Shar about what it's like running a rural arcade business in such a small town. What it took to find games, location, community building, and more. If you've ever wondered what it'd be like running a rural arcade business in small town America here is your answer. I believe that Shar and her family have done a great job building Bad Axe Retrocade and I hope they stay in business for a long time.If you ever find yourself in Bad Axe Michigan, stop by and let them know Indie Arcade Wave sent you.If you like what we are doing here at Indie Arcade Wave don't forget to like, share, and subscribe.
