Yeah... you never know what kind of games they are yet either... maybe it's a complex strategy game that not everyone will enjoy... or maybe it's a Bears vs. Babies type of game where EVERYONE will want to play. I guess we'll find out soon before the holiday season gets here.
And yes, the infrastructure is absolutely in place for success. Imagine 100 S&L retail cafes (franchise and corporate) that the distribution and/or publishing divisions can send board games to do sell at distribution or even below distribution price points when S&L is doing the publishing/manufacturing. It's going to be huge... I really hope the S&L locations start popping up quicker and quicker as more open up.
