One husband and wife duo has teamed up with business professionals to open The Gamer's Gallery. Set to open Saturday Dec. 9, in metro Detroit, it will be the first interactive gaming center in the area, featuring hand-made games and art.

In an interview with Rolling Out, we learn more about Aaron and Ashleigh Brock, what The Gamer's Gallery is and the motivation behind it. The inspiration to become business partners came from their love for both sports and each other. 

"We love being husband and wife; my husband is my best friend," Ashleigh says. "And this business is something creative to display our personality as well as our family aspect. We have a great love of sports so we thought, why not."

The company will have footpool, Playstation 4 with all the sports games, Xbox 1 with the sports games, Sega Genesis with all the old games loaded into it as well as Nintendo 64. The Gamer's Gallery will also have an over-sized Connect 4 and Jenga, trivia board games, crate ball and darts.

In introducing footpool to the masses, Ashleigh explains what it actually is.

"Footpool is just like playing soccer. You have 10 soccer balls: 4 yellow, 4 red, 1 black, and 1 white and you kick the white ball to break all played on top of a huge pool table. This game is big in Singapore. It looks easy, but it’s really not."

Besides bringing cool activities to their city, their hope for Gamer's Gallery is that people can just have fun. 

"I hope that our local Detroiters know that at any age, you can have fun with games. I want them to go back to their childhood and feel like a kid again," Ashleigh says.

"I just want everyone to have fun; that’s what life is about," Aaron concludes. "If I can’t work and have fun while I’m doing it, I don’t want to do it. This is fun to me and I want people to experience what I’ve experienced. I don’t want it to be forced; I want it to be pure fun."
