Internet cafes are a dime a dozen in Metro Manila, which challenges iCafe operators to find a way to set themselves apart from the competition and one of those ways is to provide a high-end gaming experience to customers. So ASUS Republic of Gamers and Mineski Infinity have joined forces to open MI Blitz, the most advanced iCafe in the Philippines.
Opening its inaugural branch in Wilson Street in San Juan, Metro Manila, MI Blitz features computers with ASUS Republic of Gamers hardware including ROG gaming motherboards, graphics card, gaming monitors, and gaming peripherals. MI Blitz features both regular and VIP areas with differing rental rates at Php60 and Php100 per hour, respectively.
“Mineski Infinity has been very passionate in delivering a high quality gaming experience to its patrons,” Eugene Uy, Mineski Infinity Operations Head said. “Through MI Blitz we are confident that we can deliver this experience and entice more people to join the gaming community. Our partnership with ASUS ROG will surely help bring this experience to its fruition since their innovation with gaming hardware and experience are top class. We are happy with this collaboration and hope that we can build more for the gaming community.”
“ASUS Republic of Gamers believes that gaming should be for everyone. This is the main foundation of our initiative with Mineski to bring Filipino gamers the best gaming experience in the country,” John Robert Osorio, ASUS Philippines Marketing Manager said. “With this project coming to life, ASUS ROG are setting the highest standards for the cybercafe industry. In partnership with In Win and G.Skill, ASUS ROG is going full force to deliver world-class gaming to every Filipino.”
