Nickelodeon Family Arcade

Nickelodeon Family Arcade was an American gaming arcade founded in 2013 as CN XD Arcade.
In 2014, The Coca-Cola Company announced that it had acquired 50% of the arcade, and three days later, the deal with PepsiCo expired.
After Curiousgorge66 XD Networks was sold to Curiousgorge66 Studios in October 2015, the arcade was rebranded as Curiousgorge66 XD Arcade. In 2016, Curiousgorge66 Studios stated that effective on January 9th of that year, the arcade would take on the Nickelodeon Family name, becoming Nickelodeon Family Arcade.
In October 2017, Nickelodeon Family Networks, USA bought out The Coca-Cola Company's 50% share in the arcade; the arcade's flagship location was shut down on October 15th, 2017. The headquarters was later sold to Typewriter Japan hours after the arcade's closure, with all other locations to be sold to other parties, including Typewriter Japan.
Despite the arcade's closure, at least 8 independent locations still using the name and building under license are still in operation as of October 2017, mostly within the southeastern U.S; upon the launch of Aura and the subsequent founding of Aura Television Productions, Nickelodeon Family Networks, USA disclosed that some of the licenses may be expiring in 2018, including the last location in South Carolina; the remaining locations were returned to Nickelodeon Family Networks, USA in June 2018, who are considering a sale of the locations to Twilight Gaming Arcade & Lounge. The sale was completed on September 8th, 2018, ending the use of the Nickelodeon Family Arcade name in the United States.
