    and the fact there are some fnaf renders and art on one of the doors near the stage is just amazing. I think the reason that's there is because one of the workers there has a kid that really loves fnaf and decided to put some fnaf stuff on the door, at least that's what I've been told when I went there.

    I can definitely see a lot has changed since I went there in 2022. Them getting party rooms later on definitely got me by surprise when I saw pictures of them being constructed. Glad to see the arcade portion has recovered after some of the loss from the flood two years ago, though I see the wooden booth area on one side of the building has been heavily reduced due to the arcade stuff being moved over to that space so that there's room for the party rooms. I really hope I can go there again in the future if I ever have the time and a way to get there.

    Hi Chris, not sure if you remember a few months ago I commented on one of your videos about Chuck E Cheese coming to Australia or rather retuning to Australia as it was here in the 80s as Charlie Cheese Pizza Playhouse. Anyway just came here to A: Watch this video and B to let you know that I haven't forgotten my promise to keep you abreast of what's happening it's just we've had no more news as yet. Only thing I heard was that one of the first locations was rumoured to be near to where one of the Charlie Cheese Pizza Playhouses were but theirs nothing solid on that although I found it interesting because as I'm sure I mentioned the reason Chuck E Cheese was called Charlie Cheese was because the word chuck in Australia means to throw up. So you wouldn't want people thinking of vomiting when you are trying to sell them pizza. So this rumour made me think perhaps they'll call it Charlie Cheese in Australia once they open them up I have no idea but If they open up near where the old location was perhaps people might remember Charlie Cheese from their childhoods and take their children there.

    You mentioned in this video the robots need new masks again!! Which is nitpicky compared to how they looked in 2019! But honestly I'm sitting here wondering why no one has tried to switch their mask over from latex to the plastic or whatever material Chuck e Cheese was using on the last few years of their 3 Stages?? It seemed to hold up longer! Maybe Aaron could figure out how Chuck e cheese made their 3 stage masks from the final refresh? Keeping Latex is good if you want to keep paying money to the creator to keep the legacy alive though.
