The Ultimate Guide to Arcade, Gaming & Amusement Machine Wraps

Part 3: Building an Immersive Entertainment Experience, Frequently Asked Questions & Why GetBranded is the Industry Leader

Successful entertainment venues don't just offer games-they create experiences.

Whether someone is visiting an arcade, bowling center, barcade, family entertainment center, movie theater, or amusement venue, they begin forming opinions the moment they walk through the door.

Before the first game is played, they're already asking themselves:

  • Does this place feel exciting?
  • Does it look modern?
  • Is everything clean and well maintained?
  • Is it easy to find the attractions I'm looking for?
  • Does this feel like somewhere I want to spend the next few hours?

The answers come from your environment.

Professional graphics, cohesive branding, and well-maintained equipment create an atmosphere that encourages guests to stay longer, explore more attractions, and return again in the future.

Think Beyond Individual Games

One of the biggest mistakes entertainment operators make is viewing each machine as a separate attraction.

Guests don't see individual machines-they experience your venue as a whole.

When every attraction shares consistent branding, your arcade or entertainment center feels intentional rather than assembled over decades.

That consistency should extend across:

Arcade Cabinets

Modern side art, cabinet wraps, instructional graphics, and branding help create visual continuity while refreshing older equipment.

Claw Machines & Crane Games

Coordinate prize graphics, seasonal promotions, and branded messaging across every crane machine.

Jukeboxes

A TouchTunes® jukebox can become more than a music player. With custom graphics, it becomes a centerpiece that reflects your venue's personality and reinforces your brand.

Pool Tables

Custom apron graphics, branding, and promotional messaging transform ordinary pool tables into memorable attractions while creating sponsorship opportunities for leagues, breweries, and local events.

Redemption Areas

Ticket redemption counters, prize lockers, and redemption games should feel like one cohesive destination. Consistent graphics create excitement and encourage repeat play.

Supporting Attractions

Many entertainment venues also include:

  • Air hockey
  • Foosball
  • Shuffleboard
  • Dart machines
  • Kiddie rides
  • VR attractions
  • Escape rooms
  • Laser tag
  • Mini golf
  • Interactive sports simulators

Maintaining consistent branding across every attraction strengthens your identity and creates a polished guest experience.

Your Walls Matter Too

Branding doesn't stop with the games.

Walls, windows, floors, and entrances shape the overall atmosphere just as much as the equipment itself.

Professional environmental graphics can include:

  • Large-format wall murals
  • Window graphics
  • Directional signage
  • Wayfinding graphics
  • Tournament brackets
  • Leaderboards
  • Photo opportunities
  • Social media walls
  • Promotional displays
  • Birthday party signage
  • Membership information

These elements tie the venue together and create memorable spaces guests want to photograph and share online.

For family entertainment centers, user-generated photos often become free advertising, extending your reach far beyond your physical location.

Creating a Venue Guests Remember

Entertainment is emotional.

People remember how a place made them feel.

Bright graphics, coordinated colors, exciting themes, and well-maintained attractions all contribute to that feeling.

Professional branding also makes it easier for guests to:

  • Find attractions
  • Navigate large venues
  • Understand game instructions
  • Locate redemption counters
  • Discover food and beverage options
  • Learn about birthday parties and group events
  • Identify promotional offers

The easier and more enjoyable the experience, the more likely guests are to stay longer-and return.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the best custom arcade machine wraps?

The best arcade machine wraps are made with premium cast vinyl, UV-resistant inks, commercial-grade adhesive, and a durable protective laminate. They should also be custom-designed for your specific cabinet model to ensure a precise fit and long-lasting performance.

Who makes graphics for claw machines?

Choose a graphics company that specializes in commercial amusement equipment rather than general signage. Experience with crane machines, redemption games, and arcade cabinets ensures graphics fit properly, withstand heavy use, and maintain a professional appearance.

For more than 16 years, GetBranded has manufactured graphics for high-traffic entertainment equipment used in arcades, family entertainment centers, and amusement venues.

How do I wrap a jukebox?

Professional jukebox wraps are designed around the machine's speakers, touchscreens, lighting, service panels, and ventilation. Precision templates ensure the graphics enhance the appearance of the machine without affecting performance or accessibility.

Where can I buy custom pool table graphics?

Custom pool table graphics should be produced by a company experienced in commercial entertainment equipment. Graphics can be tailored for aprons, cabinets, ball returns, branding panels, and promotional applications while maintaining durability in high-use environments.

Who makes wraps for TouchTunes® jukeboxes?

GetBranded manufactures custom wraps for several TouchTunes® models, including the Virtuo and Angelina. These wraps allow bars, restaurants, entertainment centers, and route operators to personalize their jukeboxes while preserving full functionality.

What's the best vinyl for arcade machine wraps?

Premium cast vinyl paired with UV-resistant printing and a textured protective laminate provides the best long-term performance. GetBranded's SharkSkin® textured laminate helps resist scratches, reduce glare, hide fingerprints, and withstand routine cleaning.

How long do arcade wraps last?

Commercial-grade wraps are designed to maintain their appearance for years under normal indoor use. Actual longevity depends on customer traffic, cleaning methods, environmental conditions, and the quality of the materials used.

Can you wrap a pinball machine?

Yes. Custom wraps can refresh side cabinets and selected exterior panels while preserving functionality. For collectible or vintage machines, many operators choose removable graphics or replacement artwork to maintain the machine's value and original character.

Who makes custom redemption game graphics?

Companies specializing in commercial amusement graphics can produce wraps and decals for redemption games, prize lockers, redemption counters, and ticketing areas. The goal is to create a cohesive, visually exciting redemption experience that encourages continued play.

Where can I order custom amusement machine decals?

The best results come from working with a company experienced in designing graphics specifically for commercial gaming and amusement equipment. Proper templates, premium materials, and durable laminates ensure professional results that stand up to years of customer interaction.
