Title: John's arcade - international expansion (LATAM)
Post by: Jack Burton on April 13, 2014, 09:24:51 pm
Hi John,

Have you considered expanding into Latin America? I checked and you can get juansarcade.mx.

"¡HOLA MUCHACHOS!" -- practice it for a while and let me know what you think.

PS - if you do I'll throw in a sombrero.

But it should be Juan Arcada because there is no possessive case for names in Spanish and obviously you need to translate the word arcade as well. :P

No one expects the Spanish grammar police!

throw the sombrero on a donkey for a side kick ( the Ed McMahon to Johnny Carson ) an I'd watch that...

I don't even speak / understand Spanish...

No Donkey shows though (that's NSFW). Unless anyone here has good video editing capabilities (the pixellated / black box)

Actually "Juan's Tijuana Donkey (Kong) Show" has a certain understated elegance and appeal. We can keep it PG... Well ok, PG-13 (John's humor best goes with some parental guidance for minors).

A few more domain ideas for John's Arcade international expansion: (with "HEY GUYS!" translated)

EMEA (Europe, Middle East, Africa):

JeansArcade.fr (France) "Salut les gars!"

JoãosArcade.pt (Portugal) "Oi pessoal!"

JohannesArcade.ag (German) "hallo Jungs!" <-- my fav

YannisArcade.gr (Greece) "Γεια σας παιδιά" (WTF?) Phonetically: Geia sas paidiá!

XoánsArcade.es (Spain) Hola chicos!

APJ (Asia Pacific Japan):

YohanesArcade.my (Malaysia) (unknown)

Southern United States: BubbasArcade.com "HOW YAW DURN T'DAY"

--------

Fuck. That was a lot more work than I thought it was going to be. Time for a beer.
