Since we talked about the Round1 naming convention in this thread a few years ago, I noticed we've missed one arcade chain:
Main Event
For Main Event arcades, some have done the convention we established in the above thread, but many have not been edited. The problem they have the arcade name as "Main Event" either with or without "Entertainment".
Should we format Main Event locations as Main Event (location name) or Main Event Entertainment (location name)? Branding on the website appears to lead toward the former, so I think we should go with that.
In the meantime, I'm going to edit all the Main Events on Zenius with location names from Main Event's website.

It looks like Main Event Entertainment is the overall company's name, and they manage FECs called Main Event. That would be analogous to Round1 Corporation (Round1 Entertainment in US) managing FECs called Round1 Bowling & Arcade. So just Main Event is enough imo.

I believe that Main Event (location name) is the best option.
I would also like to remind Z-i-V that I have a Revisiting Canadian arcade listings on the Arcades page thread. If you have any feedback, even if you're outside of Canada, it would be appreciated.

Late bump, but I finally got around to editing all the Main Event location names to Main Event (location name)
Since we've been managing naming conventions for several arcade chains, we should probably make a new thread and keep a list of those, don't you think?
