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. Tongue

No one expects the Spanish grammar police!

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.
