Wow, my family really enjoyed going to Game On. Can't wait to see what you have in store. WISHING YOU THE BEST. Vega Keith
The SmithHaven mall has asked us to leave.
I know this is not the news you were all expecting to hear but it’s time I announced it. If I didn’t have to leave I wouldn’t. In order to stay they gave us the option to pay more than 4x our rent as well as put a massive amount of money into the exterior facade; something the business just couldn’t support and made no sense to me. At $15 for unlimited play I would have had to raise the price and I just didn’t want to do that. I had a feeling that once the mall was renovated they would force the entertainment out. They have gotten rid of the play zone and airsoft and now the arcade. April 1st we received our 30 days notice to vacate. I’ve had this backup plan in place for quite some time and am looking forward to sharing it with you all.
Trust me, it would be so easy just to pack up and close, but I’ve never lived like that and won’t start now!
I put my heart and soul into this place over the past 5 years so it’s hard to see it go. We are already building the new location and it won’t be long before you see how crazy a plan I have made. I can tell you this; the Mall location was 5,500 sq ft, and the spaces we have just acquired includes a total of 28,000 sq ft.
This will be a Retro Heaven.
It will also no allow us to chose our own hours and stay open later. We will be able to serve you food and drink as well. 🍻
Seperate party areas inside the arcade unlike the mall will certainly be something we are looking forward to!
You may even want to stop by and catch a flick 🎥🍿
This weekend may be our last weekend here as we need to be out by April 30th. I know you’ve all made a ton of memories over the years here so if you want to stop by this weekend for one last go, we will be here. ❤️
During our temporary closure/move, please check out our Riverhead location which will be opening 7 days a week starting May 1st.
And if this wasn’t all enough to keep me busy, I’m also working on something else ;)
All free passes purchased for the mall location will carry over to the new location of course.
Love you all.
