Cheese’s, but from the Level 50 Grandmaster of children’s entertainment: Disney. I believe the answer lies in the experience and the lessons to be learned come not from Chuck E. How can one business, which should have obviously been replaced by our new technologies, still thrive while another, whose business model seemed technology-proof (kids still need toys, especially young ones), is left teetering and might be a little too late to the “if you can’t beat them, join them” party? The pizza, though surprisingly good, is still overpriced and greasy. Children still strive diligently and stupidly for tickets that can be redeemed for highly disposable gifts.

He hasn’t replaced every video game with tablets wired to the tables. If anything, it shows how traditional businesses have to contort themselves to keep up with tech.īut Chuck hasn’t changed his business model. It also sounded strange for computer manufacturer Apple to become a retailer. While it sounded a little strange, it also sounded strange for retailer Amazon to sell tablets. It announced this week that it would begin selling its own kid-friendly tablet, the Tabeo. Meanwhile, Toys “R” Us has been scrambling to stay relevant in an age where tech is replacing toys.


Cheese is always a picture of ankle-biter chaos. It always amazes me how, in an age where most children have just as much entertainment power packed into their phones as the building has within its walls, Chuck E. Cheese’s quite a bit, about once a month or so. As the father of a three-year-old, I visit Chuck E.
