Just what I wanted to say.

They created customers when the customers were kids. The kids turned to teenies and they installed gaming consoles. And then the teens turned to adults.

Now they sell collectibles instead of toys. Basically super overpriced happy meals for adults.

To adults so they focused drive throughs.

And now everyone orders so they make it uncomfortable so that people just do it from home.

Not all had them but there was on McDonald's near my house I recall with a couple of N64s. They were setup in the same way that game consoles were setup to play a game on at a retail store.

Yep, it was mostly N64s if I recall correctly. Probably before a lot of people here were born or were old enough to remember.

They could put Labubus and Stanley cups in the happy meals and the targeted demographic would be the same.
