Well, the PTT transformation would be odd seeing that the Rockford, IL store used to be a Showbiz Pizza Place (and before that a Celebration Station), but it would mark the Rockford store as an historic location. The characters would be in their Pizza Time Theatre forms once again and patrons would get to see what would happen if the Pizza Time Players sung "Gamin' Time" There would even be some shows from the PTT days as well. Not only that, The King will enter the building once again and play some Rock 'n' Roll for guests in The Lounge. Other Cabaret/Lounge characters like the Beach Bowzers and Dolli will be on stage in some occasions. In additon to the current games CEC has, Rockford's game room will include arcade classics like Pac-Man, Donkey Kong, Galaga, etc. Even the Chuck E. Go-Round will return, as well as a few other kiddie rides for the little tikes. Would it hurt to also have The Cheese Factory playhouse in this CEC as well? Also, some of the stuff from this promo sheet would be there. The Prize Counter would be renamed "Jasper's General Store" and have some retro merchandise next to the Rockstar Era merchandise. The tokens would be retro as well. Jasper's Soda Pop Stop would have both Coke and Pepsi products, as well as RC Cola products and soda from around the world. I know it's a place deeply rooted in the history of the chain (and another one at the same time), but we're still torn between either restoring this place to its 80s glory and making other period-style additions, or just saying "screw it" and bringing it back in line with every other CEC in America.

First of two things: Chuck E. Cheese's may be known for its use of animatronic characters

The other thing: We think it'd be too much of a step backward, too costly, and too much of a risk for the franchise as a whole. Some of the smaller changes you suggested could be brought in, like old-styled tokens and small numbers of retro-styled Chuck merchandise.

And in our eyes: Original Chuck looks kinda creepy, 1994 Chuck had more of an attitude and did trigger  complaints regarding the redesign of the character, but was successful because he was much more attractive to children (the chain's main target audience, mind!), and 2012 Chuck triggered even more complaints, but looks really cute and leads us to the belief that Chuck could do with even further expansion outside of the US. Which Chucky seems to be your favourite?

Please don't say "Original Chuck" Restore the place to it's 80's glory. I like all the versions of Chuck.

By the way, the chain started in 1977.
