Game Force: Reviews
Fantastic experience: This shop is what GameStop should have been. Love their deals and all the older games. The staff there are super friendly only wish they were open a little later so I could stop there after work more often!
Fantastic experience: fav place to go to buy pokemon singles, good guys.
Fantastic experience: really friendly and knowledgeable staff. have an old console or want an obscure game? they know about it and can help.
Fantastic experience: Awesome Store! Super Freindly Staff!
Negative experience: No negotiation in this door they're sketchy looking trying to buy a wii, the dude said I get to free games. He gave me one game and apparently.That one game is accounted 2 games this guy's in there fake, I probably wouldn't ever come back again
Fantastic experience: In my opinion. Best shop in the area. Others are close. But Gameforce has awesome staff for everything they have. Great vibe. Tons of games and cards. Mostly pokemon. Don’t skip out on the binders they have behind the counter. They move product quick. I love checking in weekly here to see what’s in. Always fair prices. Willing to negotiate when they can. Fair trade in especially if you aren’t being unrealistic. I don’t shop for cards anywhere else. I’ll wait until Gameforce has it.
Positive experience: The owner should have signs saying his prized consoles are not for sale. Just display only.
Hey Shane, sorry to disappoint you. We are well known for our museum-like console timeline in our store. I’m sorry it wasn’t more obvious they are not for sale, and are part of our 37 year heritage. We get consoles like those traded in all the time though, so check back for whatever you are looking for.
Fantastic experience: Went to buy CoD WaW, Black 1, 2, and 3 for Xbox One and 360. They had everything and for reasonable prices I'd say. The guy who was helping me was very friendly and asked if I wanted CoD WWII also. I said no thank you and he said it's on him and just gave it to me for free. I've never run into that before in video game store. Awesome store, huge selection, and friendly staff!
Fantastic experience: Have bought multiple pokemon cards and games from this place. Always satisfied, and my latest purchase of Dragon Ball Fusions for the 3Ds was very much worth it :)
Fantastic experience: Didn't grab anything today but the staff were so friendly, with an awesome selection of new and old games+consoles. Excited to come back!!!
Fantastic experience: You can find a lot of fun stuff here. Jim specializes in keeping his customers happy. A true small business for decades in the heart of Aurora.
Fantastic experience: Wide selection of video games and cards. Come feel nostalgic as you take a look.
Fantastic experience: Gameforce is a great store! The staff are friendly and more than knowledgeable. I got recommendations like horizon zero dawn and others from them. They introduced me to rom hacks, and repro games. I love all the variety of rom hacks for pokemon that they have. I picked up pokemon dark rising from them and it is an all original pokemon game. Would highly recommend dropping by if you have the chance…
Fantastic experience: Haven’t been in a game force for 25 years or better and this place didn’t disappoint the customer service was amazing, all the guys were extremely friendly I will be back
Fantastic experience: Great selection, great prices, and amazing service. They have been in business for 37 years and it says why. Jim was especially helpful and kind. Highly recommend.
Fantastic experience: Great prices and the tech Tommy is very reasonable and accommodating and came recommended to me by a few people.
Fantastic experience: Nice staff! They buy older games for trade ins.
Fantastic experience: This is my absolute favorite place to buy collectable cards, it's always such a joy to come here!!! The staff is so friendly and knowledgeable and their selection is amazing 10/10
Fantastic experience: Amazing service and people here ! Wide section of game and cards here.
Fantastic experience: I haven't gone recently but I Went there a few months ago go get my PS5 controller's joystick fixed. Tommy fixed the controller and it works wonderfully! Jim always welcoming as well. Their deals are fantastic and they love it when you trade in games! It's best to get store credit on the weekends for the games. I'll be going again soon. Can't wait!
Fantastic experience: I want to gatekeep, but hands down the best retro used game store in Denver area. Prices and service is way better than anything around
Negative experience: The selection is good but every single game I’ve bought from them has had scratches beyond belief it’s like they don’t even look at the games they take in
Positive experience: I really only have 2 complaints. 1) The location is awful - the parking lot is a pain to get into and out of and is a total mess, but that's not really their fault. 2) Their organization is a bit lackluster. Largely because games on the same console can be split up a lot, which makes it a little annoying to find something specific. Is it on the center aisle? The case? The back wall? You'll have to check all three, and the case isn't as orderly as the back wall. That said, the store is clean, the staff is super friendly *and* they know their stuff, the store offers things you can't find anywhere else, like Pokemon ROMs, and they have lots of really cool, niche items otherwise, like custom consoles, and they seem to manage to keep better stock than the other nearby game stores. I'm pretty impressed, honestly. I wish I lived closer so I could visit more often.
Fantastic experience: Wide selection of games ranging from atari to Sega master system and so much more!! Pricing is fair and they have some good titles!! If your hesitating on checking this place out! Do it
Fantastic experience: Best place for used games in Aurora. I've been shopping here for 20+years.
Positive experience: Lots of games for all consoles. We went there for Pokémon cards and I have to say they could have had more. I would have expected packs for sale.
Thanks CB. Keep checking us because I get packs for sale every week, they just sell super fast.
Fantastic experience: Everyone working in here is awesome! Knowledgeable of their products and courteous in their interactions with others. Great staple in the community!!!!
Fantastic experience: I love this place. They have a amazing selection with super friendly and knowledgeable staff. Every time I've been there I've been treated like it was my first time there. I wish the parking was a little better but other than that,I would recommend them over any of the bigger game store's.
Fantastic experience: Excellent staff, knowledgeable and kind. The game selection rocks and the assortment of collectibles is astounding.
Fantastic experience: My kids and I mainly go to Game Force for the Pokémon cards. We are consistently given a warm welcome by Jim, Joe and Michael. They are knowledgeable and get really pumped with me and the kids when we are chasing a card or simply asking questions. They also handle new Pokémon releases really well. I’ve even had a few good conversations with Jim about the old video games we grew up with. Heading over to Game Force is always something the kids and I look forward to!
Fantastic experience: Great place fair on prices. Will offer double in trade in credit also will be up front on cash offers if available
Fantastic experience: I cannot say enough good things about Game Force! All the staff are kind and helpful and they have the best pricing in Denver! We will forever be loyal customers here! Amazing retro stuff, great selection on current stuff and cards galore
Fantastic experience: Best value for trade ins. The dude that always wears NC Tarheels gear (sorry I forget his name) is knowledgeable and fair
Fantastic experience: Small but great store with great knowledgable people and a really cool vintage collection of games and cards!!
Fantastic experience: I do recommend this place staff is really nice, I am starting collecting pokemon cards, I have gone to some other places, and they do have for sure really good prices on the cards compared to other places, will definitely come back again!
Fantastic experience: Absolutely love coming here for Pokemon cards and second hand games. Staff is always friendly and super knowledgeable.
Fantastic experience: Best place to get all your gaming needs. If you want the old ,original , big, bulky gaming set you had as a kid well i can almost guarantee they have it or will have it in time. They have good deals and the employees are awesome and have great personalities and they truly know what they are talking about in the gaming world. Truly i say this is THE best place for all your gaming needs and to even boost your game to a big level and thats even with game stop around. Thanks guys for always knowing what your talking about but always being so nice about how unknowing of games i really know lol.
Fantastic experience: Great service , great prices. All around great experience compared to the GameStop I was just at.
Positive experience: PS4 suddenly quit. I thot it was the power supply. Was about to order a new power supply when a friend suggested this place. They tested it and ps was fine. Bought $5 power cord. Solved the problem! They saved me a lot of money!!!
Fantastic experience: Absolutely awesome. Great prices and incredibly friendly service. Family of 4 gamers here and we are customers for life!
Fantastic experience: It's the perfect place to get into card collecting. After feeling iffy & un understanding of the hype around cards, and the fear of asking a simple question over looking like a novice. Every employee here is beyond Kind and welcoming of any conversation and education to help you out the most. The only issue with the store is that it is 5 minutes from my house, so dropping by on the daily is a serious problem for any card collector with little addiction Also did my first ever "camp" prior to open, very smooth & organized of any potential chaos, and I received all the products i wanted at a fantastic deal. 100/100 recommend coming here!!!
Fantastic experience: The wide selection of videogames is impressive and the prices were more than fair in my opinion. From Nintendo 64 to Sega Genesis to PS1-4. You name the console and game, they have it. The customer service/store environment was above and beyond. Jim was amazing. He was knowledgeable of the videogames being sold and willing to clean the discs I that I bought free of charge. He went out of his way to make sure that I was satisfied with my purchaces and it is an understatement when I say that he did his job well. If you're looking for a local gamestore, skip gamestop and go to Game Force. Its worth every dollar.
Fantastic experience: Amazing spot! Been going here for a while. Only had one issue with a game not playing and they immediately helped me out and exchanged it. Wonderful staff!
Fantastic experience: Jim is an absolute pleasure to deal with, great individual to have working the shop. Not only was Jim’s knowledge appreciated he’s also beyond kind and helpful, he assisted me in finding something amazing and I couldn’t be more thankful. Great selection great value and great staff 13/10 shopping experience thank you ! p.s.- Their Boulder location is just as dope you can’t go wrong shopping @gameforce :)
Fantastic experience: You wouldn't believe how great this store is. They may not always have what you're looking for, but the staff will never try to push anything on you. Just a very simple, upstanding store with folks who don't mind taking a minute to have a conversation. The guy who is always wearing a jersey is someone you want to be friends with
Fantastic experience: I have to give a shout out to the manager, Jim, for being so patient and friendly. I had a credit with Game Force as I brought in some old stuff for trade in and there was only one game I was looking to play at the moment. I was calling in once or twice a week for about a month or two and was consistently talking with Jim about looking for Cyberpunk 2077 on PS5. Jim was always very patient and kind to me even though I was calling in so much. Jim went above and beyond for me and reached out to a friend at GameStop. To go out of his way to help an individual find a game is some seriously fantastic customer service. I already thought highly of Game Force as their entire staff was always very knowledgeable and helpful, but this experience was something new. I will always recommend Game Force to anyone that is looking for hard copies. Support that local business!
Fantastic experience: Love this place, possibly the most loaded pokemon singles collection you'll find in Denver; they maintain binders for every expansion going back at least half a decade (English and Japanese). Staff is always super friendly and helpful; always walk out with something awesome!
Fantastic experience: Visited this store from out of town, and the selection and staff are all fantastic. The folks behind the counter were always willing to help and even gave recommendations after gauging which games I was eyeing on in the sega stuff. They were also willing to pull out all the japanese imports when I requested them for browsing. The shop is big enough to accommodate for everything, displayed nicely, and they have neatly organized binders for pokemon card sets too. The main feedback I have is that it wasn't intuitive to me which gane cartridges were reproduction carts and which were not. To be clear, they were NOT trying to sell authentic games as repros (In fact, they have an entire shelf of pokemon gane repros labelled as repros), but the staff had to explain that other cartridges wrapped in plastic were the reproduction carts while cartridges not wrapped are authentic - it's possible I may have missed this explanation omewhere on the front door or written somewhere in the store, but it wasn't obvious to me. That being said, it wasn't too big of a deal and I'd strongly recommend this game store to anyone. Easy 5 star
Fantastic experience: Love game force!!! As far as I'm concerned they are the best local card shop in town. They are very fair when it comes to how they deal with pokemon drops and I always leave happy.
Fantastic experience: Went to Game Force for a few repairs on my Gamecube and some games. I could not be happier with my choice! The place has a good selection, caring staff, and is a local business. Tommy was fast and communicated the whole process while working on my equipment. He even pointed out some corrosion on some of the parts and cleaned it up for me outside of what I initially requested! I'll definitely be coming back
Fantastic experience: It was good the lady up front showed me the evolutions binder it was cool and she was very nice showing me the packs. The guy up at the front gave me money and rounded it up nicely for a good price. I got packs they are very nice. BTW I was the one who gave the gx cards Thanks!
Fantastic experience: Always great service the owner rocks always gives out deals and always helps with exchanges or problems with products bought! Also offerings disc cleaning service and has probably the biggest catalog of retro games in aurora.
Fantastic experience: Came in a couple weeks ago and picked up a wii u. they threw in a nunchuck for free which was good. when i got home though i had realized that they had given me the wrong power adapter for it so i had to go back and get it fixed. guy who helped me was super friendly and helpful and even gave me a free game for the inconvenience. amazing customer service
Fantastic experience: My brother and I went into the store looking for a PS2. We did ask, unfortunately they didn't have any PlayStation 2s for sale that day as they sold out. The person we spoke to Ben tell us about how they were going to have some more of the following day and gave us a card. He showed us around and let us know that he'll be getting more playstations the next day. We looked around at the shop more, and we came across a Gameboy so for a decent price. We looked at the games and the store employees even tested the games to idk they worked. I like this store because they have friendly employees and they are Knowledgeable about their games. I'm going to be back
Fantastic experience: This store is a gem! The Pokémon card selection is incredible, and every visit I find a grail I have been searching for. The staff is super nice, knowledgeable, and always welcoming to me and my family. I will definitely be back and highly recommend this shop!
Fantastic experience: Wonderful people who work there and have an amazing variety of games. They hardly ever are unfair with their prices. And their repairmen Tommy, he’s has fixed many of my games and consoles and has done an amazing job each time, he charges very well.
Thank you Molly! We love being your game store
Fantastic experience: I was recommended by a coworker to head over to Game Force since he got me back into collecting recently! This place rocks! One of the guys, Tommy, took a little time to explain card conditions to me. Super nice place, friendly, cool shop. I'll definitely be back, would recommend to anyone!
Fantastic experience: -One of the only card/game shops to accept Japanese Pokemon cards for trade and sell. They give about 50% trade value for normal cards and a little more on the more expensive cards. -The employees/Owners are super chill and down to Earth. Will have normal conversations with you even if they're busy -You can use the trade credit for anything in the store. I traded some cards and was able to get a PS5 Disc for the family. -Great prices on their cards, haven't bought any Video Games besides the PS5 so I don't know what their pricing looks like
Positive experience: They claim to not use Pricecharting for reference, and got very defensive when asked about it. The ironic thing is they gave me Pricecharting retail amount for my trade-ins, but refused to budge on some games that were about 40% over market. I still bought the games, and like their selection but I think they should be willing to negotiate even slightly. I have a very large N64 collection that I will be offloading and I am hesitant to bring it to them if they're gonna offer me pennies on the dollar.
Fantastic experience: This store honestly deserves more than 5 stars. I've been in several times looking for ps3 titles and man is the owner knowledgeable. You can tell that these people actually play games not just sell them. I know running a small business can be hard and I'd implore anyone buying old games to give your hard earned money to this store instead of Amazon or eBay. This place absolutely rules.
Fantastic experience: Stopped in for the first time yesterday looking for a specific model of Nintendo DS that I have been wanting. They didn't have any under the counter, but they had one that hadn't been priced yet as it had just been brought in. They were willing to test it and get it priced for me and even threw in a backup stylus and charger. They were very transparent and fair with their pricing. I had been looking for this exact model and they made sure I was taken care of from the moment I stepped through the doors until checkout. I wish I had caught the names of the two kind humans who helped me. Will definitely recommend and come back for any future gaming needs!
Fantastic experience: This is our go-to store for games, consoles, and cards! They are absolutely the best! Always helpful, patient, and knowledgeable - they are happy to answer questions and offer fair value for trade-ins. They go above and beyond for my kids and always make us feel welcome. ♾️
Fantastic experience: I was really impressed with this store. Employees and owner are very friendly. Probably one of the most enjoyable times I've had at a game store. They gave me a very fair amount of store credit for a trade in I brought in. Super transparent with the pricing and the offer exceeded my expectations.
Thank Joey! We want to be your game store!
Fantastic experience: This place is awesome. I brought my 8 year old to buy some games for his Sega Genesis and the staff at Game Force were so kind and helpful. I will definitely be back when the time comes for my son to step up to the next platform. With the experience we just had, I can’t recommend Game Force enough to anyone in the market for retro game systems.
Fantastic experience: My wife and I came in last week looking for some PS2 and Switch games. This store had a fantastic selection and I really liked the staff. They were very helpful and didn't rush us as we were looking around. Couple that with competitive pricing and we'll definitely be coming back!
Fantastic experience: This place is amazing! I really felt welcomed and that they cared about me the entire time I was in the store! All the staff was extremely friendly, knowledgeable and willing to help! The customer service was far beyond what you usually get at stores! Great selection of games, great prices and my favorite was the brand new limited run games they had! Highly recommend!
Fantastic experience: Pokemon selection is great. Have awesome graded cards and singles. Ton of Japanese packs and booster boxes and almost every recent ETB. Prices are TCGplayer or below. Great experience
Fantastic experience: Stopped by today to pick up some titles for my newly growing PS4 collection and was blown away. This place has a ton of stock and the prices seemed more than fair, the service was super friendly too! Seeing the amazing selection of Pokémon cards was the cherry on top, needless to say I will be back.
Fantastic experience: We are from NM and were shopping and decided to check out this store. It was a little drive from us but 100% worth it! We were beyond impressed and my grandson found everything he had been looking for. A retro game. They gave him a case and battery pack for the system. The selection of games and systems are awesome. They give guarantees on used products! We highly recommend Game Force! Wish there were more stars to rate them!!
Fantastic experience: Best video game store in town. If they sell me a game that doesn't work they are quick to refund my money. Everybody is so polite and respectful. They even fix your consoles for you and return them to you with no problems. I would definitely recommend this retro game store before any other store in Aurora. they are definitely the best
Fantastic experience: If you grew up in CO, and you went to Buy Back Games; this is the place for you. My guy has ALL the retro stuff and the current gen consoles. The staff is Super Duper helpful and his prices are competitive/ reasonable. I’ve actually checked here first before Amazon. They’ve recently expanded the store to accommodate more people. Give my guy a shot before GameStop, you won’t be disappointed.
Fantastic experience: Best place for retro games. I have both bought and sold here. Store is bright and clean. Huge selection. Fair prices. Friendly and knowledgeable staff. Custom cartridges are available. But most importantly, they take care of their products!! They are all in good or better condition without sun bleaching from the Colorado sun.
Fantastic experience: This is our favorite Game Shop in Denver. Everyone who works there is super knowledgeable, helpful and kind and it feels like a second home. The owner always has fun new inventory to show us when we are in, stuff on the wall that he lets us get a closer look at and just has fun chatting with people interested in Retro Gaming. Returns have always been incredibly smooth and even when we were away for a couple weeks and hadn't opened a 2DS we bought and noticed it's screen was broken they completely took care of us and swapped for one that was good. If you like retro games, this is your place. If you like good prices on used modern games, this too is your place.
Thanks Marc! We appreciate you making the drive to come see us!
Negative experience: Be cautious of buying older Nintendo cartridges. They sold me counterfeit Nintendo Cartridges for the price of real ones. Always check the back on a Nintendo Cartridges. If the i in Nintendo has a square it is real if it is a circle it is a counterfeit. Pictures below for reference. This is not just for N4 but all Nintendo games
Fantastic experience: We visit this store every time we're in Aurora! The staff is incredibly sweet and helpful! They have a very unique stock of games including reprogrammed cartridges and reproductions of hard to find games. It's always a treat to see what we will find every time we visit. Thank you Game Force!
Fantastic experience: Overall the best selection and most friendly service I've ever seen in any game store. At least 90% of my collection is made up of games from Game Force and its still growing. Every time I come in there's always something new or old for me to check out and I shop here pretty often. Great selection of games from NES to newer consoles. Return policy is great and trading games is even better. Usually with GameStop, you'll trade a game in and get like 5 bucks for it. Not at Game Force. You're gonna get a great bang for your buck here, whether trading or buying from any era of gaming.
Fantastic experience: Slightly above the average prices on some of the rarer stuff but the quality is always reflected. Please stop in and see Jim and/or Joe, or any of the other awesome staff they have there. If they don't have it, they'll find it!
Fantastic experience: By and far the best game store in the Denver area. Some of the prices can indeed be a tad over current average, but the quality is always top notch, you don't have to pay for shipping and you get to walk out of the store with something cool! Forever recommend this store!!!
Fantastic experience: This a wonderful museum AND store, to be honest. Jim, one of the awesome employees is super knowledgable. You can CLEARLY tell he has a passion for gaming. You won't be disappointed stopping by. Bought an N64 w/ two controllers and a few games! Thanks again Jim.
