Fantastic experience: The beeeest. Great selection, great vibe, nice people. Ive traded in a bunch of stuff and theyre really fair with what they offer you.

Ayla M Posted on Google 1 week ago

Fantastic experience: Cute store! They have magic the gathering booster packs, nintendo ds games, gameboy advance games, etc

Connor J Posted on Google 2 weeks ago

Fantastic experience: I love this store and come multiple times per week. I have enough games at this point that I can basically live off of trading games in and getting store credit. I have had a lot of fun buying old consoles at very reasonable prices, playing them for a year or so and then trading the console and games in for a different one. This is what gamestop wishes it was. If you buy one of their shirts you can get a discount on most games as well which is really nice. If you come here often the shirt will pay for itself fairly quickly.

Fantastic experience: Spoke with Aleece (not sure if thats how her name was spelled) and she was amazing. Super nice and we had a fun conversation about a game franchise we both like!

Fantastic experience: Awesome place to find vintage games! Giant shout out to Chewie and Rowan: super nice, and both went the extra mile to help me find an old copy of a sega genesis x-men game i didnt think they had in stock

Steve Rockoff Posted on Google 3 weeks ago

Fantastic experience: I lived in Capitol Hill a few years ago and I wish this store would have been around back then. Nicely designed store with a cool selection and nice employees. Great vibes.

Maria Saint Francis Posted on Google 4 weeks ago

Fantastic experience: If you got stuff to sell, bring it here. I didn't get low balled like I have at corporate stores and the staff is pleasant. 10/10 would bring stuff here to get rid of again

Retribution Rising Posted on Google 1 month ago

Fantastic experience: If you're looking for a game shop in Seattle, this is the place. They have a good vareity of things here, the prices can be a bit steep at times. But it's pretty great if you're looking for modern to classic games

Jacob Amron Posted on Google 1 month ago

Fantastic experience: Really generous and cool people working and sum cool old vintage games

Chris Posted on Google 2 months ago

Fantastic experience: I really liked this place. Going to Seattle, I stopped by Pink Gorila because of Metal Jesus rocks on youtube. He mentioned it and I finally got to go. This one isn't the flagship store so it's a lot smaller but it still held a lot of games.

Eugene Helfrick Posted on Google 2 months ago

Fantastic experience: Awesome games store. Great prices on games from all eras. Really unique and worth the stop.

lenlee hosang Posted on Google 2 months ago

Fantastic experience: Pink Gorilla Games at Capital Hill has a nice selection. I know most workers and they’re great people. I also took pics in case if you guys are planning on visiting PGG at Capital Hill. These images are the ones that you’ll be seeing when you get there, and it can give you ideas.

Mian Bao Posted on Google 4 months ago

Fantastic experience: Cody and the crew at Pink Gorilla are passionate, knowledgeable and pretty fun to chat with. There's a huge selection of retro games, cards, accessories and other cool pieces of merch. It's a great place for fans of classics and just about anyone who is a millennial that played games in the 90s.

Mohammed Mohammed Posted on Google 4 months ago

Fantastic experience: Gotta love the selection staff and environment. Fair prices and knowledgeable people. Can't go wrong with videogames!

E G Posted on Google 8 months ago

Negative experience: I was quite happy to go there since I’ve sean everything through YT. I was in Seattle in August (from Madrid, Spain) and any of the 3 SFC games I bought work. Wrote them by X and no answer. Very disapointed.

Milo Adams Posted on Google 8 months ago

Fantastic experience: Awesome staff Bought a console it had issue’s they offered to fix or replace for free I went the replace option also bought many used games all were in great condition awesome place

Wyatt Kunzelman Posted on Google 8 months ago

Jenna Carpenter Posted on Google 8 months ago

Floris van Lent Posted on Google 9 months ago

Fantastic experience: I've been traveling through America for four weeks and this is the only store that had packs of Pokemon cards in stock. The people working there are kind and clearly passionate ♡

Zachary Williams Posted on Google 9 months ago

Negative experience: The guy working there told me a different location had a copy of a game I wanted to purchase and informed me he would call ahead to have it set aside. He did not do this and the game was sold before I could get there. Unreliable plus a generally poor selection of games.

Patrick Hovsepian Posted on Google 9 months ago

Fantastic experience: Great selection and even better staff. It's a chill spot with lots of hidden gems

Randall Blair Posted on Google 10 months ago

Fantastic experience: Incredible store! Fair prices, and friendly staff! Glad I could finally see this place in person.

Jean Saik Posted on Google 10 months ago

Negative experience: Very expensive, more than average for most stores. Inflexible pricing, staff was talking bad about each customer who left. Also offer very poor value for games brought in

Joseph Herron Posted on Google 10 months ago

Fantastic experience: Great place to buy and sell games, or just take a trip down memory lane.

Josh Ford Posted on Google 11 months ago

Fantastic experience: A well maintained, vibe-y and professionally run retro video game & collectible store! I swing by periodically and it's always a joy to browse and interact with the folks who work here. The staff is very knowledgable, kind and helpful! They have a great selection of used games, sealed collectibles and rare finds. Young or old, this place is bound to have something awesome for you! Definitely one of my favorite local stores in Seattle. <3

Gary Molotov Posted on Google 11 months ago

Fantastic experience: Didn't have what I was looking for but an awesome video game store with helpful staff

Adrian Christoph Posted on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Wanted to check this place out for a while now, and I walked right by this weekend while out running errands. The only place I could find Capcom Fighting Collection 2 since all GameStop and retailers were out. And bought a couple of Pokémon card booster packs too. I will definitely be back. Thank you.

Ryan B Posted on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Elise is the best human being ever to have existed on planet Earth. She moved heaven and Earth to fix my Commodore 64 so I could play Oregon Trail like God intended. While I still died from dysentery, Elise made sure I could make it all the way to the Willamette Valley. Thanks, Elise!

Molly Margaret Kunkel Posted on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: The staff here are soooo helpful. I came in looking for a few specific items and they were so patient and kind. I’ll definitely make a point to stop here whenever I’m in town!

James Ohta Pai Posted on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Great section of games and consoles, Pokémon packs for msrp. Sellers are nice and love what they do. Great shop

Petra Biglow Posted on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: great little place to find some old games and consoles

Julian Posted on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I had a very positive visit! Everything was well organized with the more sought out games and collectibles inside the cases. Staff were very friendly and super helpful! Finally all of the 4 ds games I bought seemed to have new shells and work great! thank you guys for the good prices and the time to refurbish old game cards before selling them :)

Jimmy Huynh Posted on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Went to Pink Gorilla Games Capitol Hill. It’s one of my favorite place to cruise around and check out if there are any new games they put out. The atmosphere was very pleasant and cozy! Also, outstanding customer service!!! Highly recommended!!! Love love love it !!

R B Posted on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Great customer service, and their trade in values were very fair! Much better than any other store I have traded with. They could do in store credit, cash, venmo and PayPal. (Maybe other options as well) I brought in roughly 50 games, and they rep communicated clearly to me that it'll be about an hour to scan them all, so we went and got lunch nearby. Very easy process and rep was kind the whole time. Store was very clean and well put together.

Gina Posted on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I really need to get out more. It's just down the street, and I've never been. Cool little spot with a ton of games. You can offload old systems, accessories, and games here as well. Staff is very friendly and helpful, and I'll definitely be popping in here when I'm looking for a new game.

Maxwell Sherman Posted on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Best retro game store in the area, glad they have a Cap Hill location now!

Shadey Claymore Posted on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Picked up the new Mario game, Cody (I believe) was very quick and precise, keeping up with the business of a release day, this clean store is unbeatable in Seattle, and all locations are a must visit.

Audrey L Posted on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I was finally able to go here, and it was awesome! I got a Waddle Dee eating pasta (toppings undetermined) and an ice Kirby! We also got free packs of Pokémon cards!!!! Thanks so much!!!!

DarkWestern Posted on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Great place for retro games and trading cards!

Liv Ruffing Posted on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Love these pink gorilla stores

Andrew Vuong Posted on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Hands down the place to go to for any gaming system help. My N64 was struggling and I couldn’t figure out why, so I brought it here. Elise fixed it right in front of me in 15 minutes and saved an important piece of my childhood!

Niema Moshiri Posted on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I'm from San Diego, and the retro gaming store scene is pretty weak over there, so I was super excited to check out Pink Gorilla Games when I heard about it! I was really impressed: great selection (especially consoles), and extremely reasonable prices that aren't hiked up like a lot of the retro gaming scene. Super cool spot!

BetaTalk64 Posted on Google 1 year ago

Negative experience: Out of the 3 games I bought, 2 of them didn't work. Waste of money, never coming back

Kierron Kinley Posted on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Fantastic store!

Kamille Irenia Posted on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: This. Place. Is. Awesome!! Amazing atmosphere, and amazing deals!! The security cases will make you cry, because those are the top games you're looking for and they're likely to be 150 dollars. However, I'm sure you'll find something you'll love here no matter what console you use.

Zach B Posted on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Pink Gorilla did not disappoint! Great selection with some cool unique finds, friendly staff, and they did an exchange for me no questions asked instead of me buying a new controller (when I wasn't pleased with one I bought at another location) which surprised me.

Charlie U'ren Posted on Google 1 year ago

Negative experience: Bad selection of magic cards

Sutherland Staatz Posted on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Really good deals especially for Seattle, though other locations have better inventory

J M Posted on Google 1 year ago

Negative experience: This particular location is very small. The images online appear as if the store is larger. Customer service here needs to be worked on.

Sean McGehee Posted on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I've been to Pink Gorilla several times over several different locations within Seattle - never have I had a bad experience. They know what they're talking about, they've fixed my gear, and have purchased old stuff from me. Can't appreciate them enough.

Sacha Gilley Posted on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: They have a lot of different games and gaming systems, along with whatever accessories you need, and all for a really good price. They have a 7 day refund policy if you are not satisfied with what you bought, as long as it's still in good shape. Definitely will get more of my business. The guy at the front counter was very helpful and friendly.

Kaleb Bowers Posted on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Dream fulfilled. Had wanted to go here since I saw one of Adam Koralik’s videos on it as a teenager. Prices were very reasonable and selection was great- was able to grab Enchanted Arms and a few other games I’d been looking for and never been able to find in person. Worth it.

Justin _G Posted on Google 2 years ago

Aneka Zarger Posted on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: This is a great place to visit for anyone interested in gaming or collecting. The owner has a Twitch channel they occasionally stream to. I purchased a blind box and they have a wonderful policy that allowed you to keep what you opened or trade for what is already open. There is a great selection of retro games, plushies, and other collectibles.

Gustavo Magella Posted on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: The best Retro Game Franchise in the America. ❤️ I love you guys.

Ann Ackley Posted on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Always a treat to see what they have at Punk Gorilla

Harrison Montgomery Posted on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Awesome store. Always clean and friendly staff. Went in looking to get my PS4 cleaned and they advised it would be cheaper to just replace it. Really appreciate them looking out for me like that!

Thomas Underwood Posted on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Friendly staff who are always down to talk games with you and a steady rotation of cool, new stock coming in. Between this location and my home store in the CID, I'm always set for new old games to enjoy~

Ratheo Posted on Google 2 years ago

Negative experience: Underpaid me for the games I sold them, apparently four games and an Xbox one controller is only worth $5

Jason Thompson Posted on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Phenomenal service and staff. Always refreshed inventory so keep checking back. Every time I come in they have what I want or new retro titles to explore. They do have some modern system selections also usually might be locked up. Glad this place opened on the hill to feed my retro addiction.

Paul Wambui Posted on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Nice place

cali yocom Posted on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: been to all locations and they have best customer service, will always be coming back here

ErikdreD 5070 Posted on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Pink gorilla is one of my favorite retro game stores hands down. Awesome people work here.

Shia Komatsu Posted on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Came here to sell my old wii and GameCube equipment, left wanting to live in the store. If you played video games in the 80s-90s, they have everything (from consoles to video games, to the power cords to controllers) there and more. I very much love it there <3 Stoner approved.

dino novosel Posted on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: wonderful staff!

Max Ray Posted on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I went in for some old Xbox 360, rock band parts, that are hard to find online and they had everything we needed! We were promptly assisted and then kindly helped. The service and selection is stellar. Seriously, thank you to the gentleman working the counter. I won't forget your kindness and helpful manner while fulfilling our desperate needs. We are rocking because of you!

Ty Stout Posted on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Awesome little game shop. Would go back for sure if I moved close enough.

Anthony Schlacks Posted on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Vintage and retro gaming. A blast from the past

Nick Tipton Posted on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Awesome little video game store! I found a GameCube game and a Wii game, both of which had been on my wishlist for a long time. One of the discs appeared to have some scratches, but they were happy to polish and test the disc before I purchased. They have a good assortment of games, including imported versions. They also had some some cool accessories and plushies if you are into that kind of thing.

LT Posted on Google 2 years ago

Negative experience: The staff was not attentive nor friendly. I asked if they had more Zelda amiibos, the guy at the counter told me they didn’t and pointed out that the amiibo on his desk just got in and he didn’t even know the price yet. Then he just went back to wherever he was doing on his computer and completely ignored me.

Q Dogg Posted on Google 2 years ago

Negative experience: Retro GameStop, DK Oldies,Pink Gorilla games what do these game stores have in common ? Well when you order an expensive rare game you never know what you’re going to get.

Laura Alexandra Posted on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Amazing video game store in Seattle! With so many retro video games, consoles, and collectables. Great service! They always help me with all the information I have about games or consoles. This store is in the hearth of Capitol Hill, very close to Seattle Central College! It's a must-see if you are walking around this neighborhood

Benjamin Covarrubias Posted on Google 2 years ago

Positive experience: games are organized and well kept, but can be overpriced (ex. used xbox one controllers are more expensive here than if you got it new at best buy or target)

serge jacinto Posted on Google 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: I was on a trip to Seattle and really wanted to visit. The store is small but had a great selection of games. The staff was super friendly and helpful and I bought an Xbox One S. After chatting with me for a little bit, the guy recommended a couple of games, one of which I'd never heard of but I got it anyway and it did not disappoint.

EC Posted on Google 3 years ago

Positive experience: Some great prices and some pretty iffy ones but really not a whole lot of selection.
