Cheese\u2019s Celebrates \u2018National Video Games Day\u2019 with Free Games<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\"><em>America\u2019s #1 arcade offers 20 minutes of free game play on Sept. 12<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">DALLAS, Sept. 7, 2017 \u2013 Chuck E. Cheese\u2019s, America\u2019s #1 video arcade is celebrating National Video Games Day by offering guests 20 minutes of free game play with $5 minimum food purchase. Video game enthusiasts are invited to visit any participating U.S. Chuck E. Cheese\u2019s location on Tuesday, September 12 to help celebrate this fun day by playing all the games that the family dining and entertainment leader offers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cAt Chuck E. Cheese\u2019s, we\u2019re always investing in new and exciting games while offering the classic favorites that our guests love to play time and time again,\u201d said Michael Hartman, chief marketing officer of CEC Entertainment Inc. \u201cEvery year, millions of families make Chuck E. Cheese\u2019s their go-to destination for food, fun and games, so we are excited to celebrate this fun holiday by offering 20 minutes of free games.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Across the country, Chuck E. Cheese\u2019s has rolled out Play Pass, its new tap-to-play game card system which uses RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) technology in place of tokens. The technology provides guests with an enhanced experience that is easier to use, faster, and cleaner. Guests simply tap the card to the reader and they can immediately start playing their favorite games. This is in contrast to other video game providers that still use tokens or more complicated magnetic-stripe cards that must be swiped.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The National Video Games Day offer is valid all day, limit 1 per guest with $5 minimum food purchase at participating U.S. Play Pass locations only.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>About CEC Entertainment, Inc.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">CEC Entertainment is the nationally recognized leader in family dining and entertainment with both its Chuck E.
