They charge hourly with about a dollar/hr. They make money mostly by snacks and meals though. In some highly competitive area you can get about $0.6/hr or lower but these days they mostly compete with better food/machines. Some also have dual monitor setup or streaming setup as well.
It has been one of the biggest leasure industry in the country, which is also the reason why esports is so big here.
Fascinating! Never seen anything like this before.
Do they charge by the minutes spent there + extras or is this a membership thing?

That sounds like something gamers will add to their “tourist destination”.
Here in Japan they charge by the hour, with discounts if you prepay for 3, 5, or 8 hours
