"Our products are a pop culture staple and even with today's new gaming technology, customers want to relive the nostalgic fun of their past, and to translate their childhood experiences into an opportunity for modern family entertainment. Expanding our market to include leisure lifestyle destinations such as miniature golf with this same message makes good sense.
