Forever Games

Experiencia fantástica: Amazing value

Experiencia positiva: Pretty good selection of old games, consoles and TCG cards. Singles for Pokémon, Yugioh, MTG were plentiful. No prices for ETBS or blisters for Pokémon - upon asking, it seems like they use TCGplayer and eBay for comps and then spit out an upcharge for it. Seemed like a lot of the employee's time was spent answered the phone, which from what I understand, routes calls from all three of their locations to the store on Morrison. Overall experience was okay.

Experiencia fantástica: Awesome experience and a super clean store! They have a wide range of Pokémon cards, video games and even some other old stuff.

Experiencia negativa: This is for this location only. I have not been to the other location yet. This was my first time visiting and it was highly recommended. Very nice store, but it has some major problems. Number one half of the games are not priced. I asked the employee for a price on a game and he takes 5 minutes of awkward silence looking up the price of this game. Then finally tells me and he must have looked up the highest comp on a website. I then ask for another game. Behold it isn’t priced as well. So back to waiting for 5 minutes to check another price and he did the same thing AT LEAST HAVE PRICES MARKED OR HAVE SOME SORT OF IDEA AHEAD OF TIME. There are so many games stores in Columbus Ohio. I wouldn’t recommend going to this one specifically!

Experiencia fantástica: Great store that has all the things and rights prices. Patrick was great to work with and very helpful!

Experiencia fantástica: Very nice, clean & organized game store. They have games for all consoles plus Pokémon cards etc etc. Most things are reasonably priced. They gave me a good trade offer.

Experiencia fantástica: Has quite a few rarer games for consoles. Was able to purchase a 2DS XL (clamshell model) for a reasonable price which helped me kickstart my 3DS collection. Found quite a few games I was looking for here. They were polite and spoke about classic games with a passion that shown they have been around for a while.

Experiencia negativa: Do not take vintage PC big box games here. They paid about $1 per each for a lot of vintage games including floppys and floppy diskettes. Total rip off which we only accepted because we are in a tight spot with family. Horrible to be treated kindly to face then get low balled to that degree. Same amount was over a thousand at pay more, which they dismissed as 'just a chain store'. Just go there, at least they tell you up front they are cutting you in half to take the profit. Edit to reply to response: They got a great deal by taking massive advantage of ppl who are in a bad spot w family. It is easy for them to say they are the ones who overpaid bc they know we can't come back due to family. They will make profit hand over fist on things like doom II and epix games big box cib. We told them we have our hands full w out of state family. They could have just said no if it was really a bad deal in their minds. This response shows they are liars as well as cheats! Avoid avoid avoid!

Experiencia positiva: Wide selection. It was actually a little busy with 5 other customers in a small store.

Experiencia fantástica: Great value great people

Experiencia fantástica: Best game store in Columbus hands down. They always give me fair prices on trade ins, and the staff is super knowledgable and willing to help whenever I go there. Great selection of games too, definitely recommend stopping in

Experiencia fantástica: I stopped in recently and picked up a few games. In and out quickly. Great service and a very clean and well displayed collections. I’d highly recommend stopping in and checking them out. I have driven by this building for years and never knew this place existed. I accidentally stumbled across it in a Google search. I’m sure they are probably limited to what they can display but happy I found it.

Experiencia fantástica: Amazing service and great selection of games as well as pokemon cards. 10/10

Experiencia fantástica: Fantastic trade values, knowledgeable staff, amazing selection!! 10/10 would recommend!!

Experiencia fantástica: Such a cool shop. Huge selection of games and Pokémon cards. Super nice guys behind the counter. A must stop for any gamer.

Experiencia fantástica: I am in this store three times a week at least and the first time that I was there the staff made me feel super welcomed and everytime after that they have done the same. They treat their custormers with great levels of respect and outdo every other pokemon card shop in the Columbous area. They have great prices and would highly recomend giving the place a try.

Experiencia fantástica: We went to grab some older games and this was definitely the right spot!! The employee really knows games and systems! He even showed us some systems we had never seen before! He is very knowledgeable and most definitely is an asset to this place! They also had a lot of games, pokemon cards and systems! This is the game I got and it was an incredible condition and included the maps! Highly recommend!!

Experiencia fantástica: Great to work with

Experiencia fantástica: Gave great prices for cards. Will be coming back.

Experiencia fantástica: I totally recommend this place. Nice and friendly staff. Great prices!

Experiencia fantástica: Great guys here. I had a Nintendo game that didn't work , brought it back ,(w/proof of purchase i.e receipt , they apologized, we exchanged it and I left. What more can you ask for. Also They showed me the game worked before I left.

Experiencia fantástica: Amazon place and selection.

Experiencia fantástica: One of the best local game stores I have ever seen. I travel all over for work and go to local shops all over and this place had some of the best prices and some stuff that's more of a rare find. Would recommend.

Experiencia fantástica: Very nice & helpful store was nice so was the staff, games was nicely set up & & packaged! Definitely gonna be my go to store for now on! Definitely recommend

Experiencia fantástica: Probably the best game store that I've ever been to.

Experiencia fantástica: The guys are very knowledgeable with the games and all consoles. Very friendly and good prices. Have big sortment of consoles and games.

Experiencia fantástica: Great place for all your gaming needs from retro to modern they have it all.

Experiencia fantástica: Tienen las mejores cosas que tienen lo que pueden decir somos

Experiencia negativa: Shady business tactics. None of the snes games in the front case are priced. When I asked about a game he opened up pricecharting and decided on a price on the spot. No retail operation should work like that. In many places pricing like this is illegal. (I can't find a definitive answer for ohio on posting prices) The price he gave seemed high to me. Later I looked the game up i realized he marked up from pricecharting by 50%! There were several other games I was interested in but as soon as I saw his phone come out I was done. Some games had pricetags but I wouldn't be surprised if they refused to honor that price after a quick check on the going rate + 50% Edit: I was quoted $30 for a game that is $21.31 on pricecharting. That's roughly a 50% increase. As for requiring price tag "The unit pricing law requires retailers to disclose an item's unit price by either marking the item or by placing it on the shelf beneath the item. The “unit price” is the retail price expressed in terms of price per unit of weight, measure, or count" I'm not positive that law applies in this state or to a small independent store. Even if it's legal it's not ethical.

Experiencia fantástica: Amazing store - always have a blast. Staff really knows there stuff about video games and Pokemon

Experiencia fantástica: Very nice store asso was knowledgeable and polite.

Experiencia fantástica: Amazing selection and great staff! The owner is fantastic and so is the rest of the team. Every time I go I find something. They give good offers on trades and have great prices on games. They treat their customers with kindness and respect and are very knowledgeable. Will continue to keep coming back!

Experiencia fantástica: Loved this place! I went to GameStop looking for PS3 games and they didn't have no more than 10 so I stopped here and I'm glad I did!. This place is so cool looking and clean. They had everything you would ever need. Definitely coming back

Experiencia fantástica: Matt the owner is a great guy! He will treat you fair on trade in and prices. If you need anything for your retro collection this is the place!

Experiencia fantástica: Best Shop in town!

Experiencia fantástica: Forever games outside looks like an office district it's not too distinct. Just go in and take a look as they have practically any old gaming system and games you would want. I liked that the gaming consoles were in cases and labeled alphabetically. Each console had its own display for consoles and games. We have purchased several PS3 games, Nintendo 3DS and DS cartridges that are in pristine and no visible scratches condition. Their prices on their games are a little high but you are paying for the pristine condition you don't typically get from a store like Game Stop.

Experiencia fantástica: Friendly sales person. Knowledgeable about old stuff I was looking for. Definitely return for future needs.

Experiencia fantástica: They have a number of vintage machines, including 8bit computers and some obscure systems. I will definitely be back.

Experiencia fantástica: I went there last night and loved it... Nice people and a lot of cool retro games and new games selections..

Experiencia fantástica: Great and fun

Experiencia fantástica: Awesome little game store! Was not expecting the variety they had here nor the awesome staff.

Experiencia fantástica: Amazing store, tons of retro games, even some more recent games, pokemon cards, and everything a gamer could ask for

Experiencia fantástica: Ablan español en la tienda

Experiencia fantástica: Fantastic owners. Very kind.

Experiencia negativa: I went to sell my console there one time with my friend they offered me $20 for a Xbox one s . I like the store the retro feel but I don't recommend selling your console there Xbox gave me $130 for it other than that the store is okay

Experiencia fantástica: We went to capital games previously and after our most recent visit and having the person running the shop come late to open we came here. Let me tell you it was the best experience we have had at a game store!! Thank you all for the fair prices and the great and clean selection!!!!!

Experiencia fantástica: - this is probably one of the better game stores in the area, it's kind of a weird location but has plenty of parking. - staff are all really friendly and helpful. - prices range from what you are looking for, but most of them are pretty reasonable. - place is clean and organized. - has lots of games and Pokemon items. - overall a new favorite game store in the area for me.

Experiencia negativa: Game prices not posted on items in the class case and clerk has to confirm each item with someone over text...

Experiencia fantástica: Really cool place. Got a pretty darn good selection of games and I am satisfied with my visit. Would recomend!

Experiencia negativa: I called 14 times and no one answered the phone. I just wanted to ask if you had one game

Experiencia fantástica: Very good customer service

Experiencia fantástica: This store brings back a lot of good memories of video game playing especially with the retro / old school game consoles I mean like back in the 80s for real

Experiencia fantástica: I have known the owner since his early days in Pataskala. His shop was great then and has only become larger and better.

Experiencia fantástica: Quality game store! Super friendly staff! Picked up Sekiro and they gave me it cheaper since market went down! Thank you guys!

Experiencia fantástica: Awesome place to go shop for games

Experiencia fantástica: Great selection of retro consoles and games with fare pricing!! Staff is extremely helpful and knowledgeable.

Experiencia fantástica: This place is great, went into get some old ps1 games resurfaced and not only did they resurface them but they even replaced the inside of the jewel case to keep the games from becoming loose in the case. They went above and beyond in my book, they care about you and your games. The customer service is outstanding.

Experiencia fantástica: Went here a couple of weeks ago. This is like the game stores of old. Every game console made is represented here. I'm going to be testing each of my systems and then coming here to buy more games! Absolutely amazing.

Experiencia fantástica: Great service!

Experiencia fantástica: Awesome place to check out if you're a video game or pokemon collector.

Experiencia fantástica: Really good shop. Staff was nice. Patrick was awesome and helpful, great prices for trade-ins, huge selection of classic games. Would recommend.

Experiencia negativa: They rely too much on Ebay prices. I liked this store but not much anymore. Things should be priced before hand.

Experiencia negativa: Went here a few months ago and was very turned off when the seller has to scan everything to then tell you a price higher than what you can get it online for. If you want something right now, this is the place I guess.

Experiencia fantástica: Made friends with Patrick. He's fair and cool.

Experiencia fantástica: Had exactly what I needed, at a great price. Staff was very friendly, selection is amazing. Definitely going back soon.

Experiencia fantástica: Amazing selection and hidden gem!

Experiencia fantástica: Great place for all gaming needs

Experiencia positiva: The only Columbus-area place on a weekend where I was able to trade in unopened pokemon TCG products for store credit. Maybe they low-balled me a bit, but all the other gaming stores only allowed trading in unopened products on the weekdays, which was annoying.

Experiencia fantástica: Great place for retro games

Experiencia fantástica: Once you visit this place it will become a go to for for your gaming needs. The staff are very personable and helpful.

Experiencia fantástica: I have shopped at Forever Games since 2014 and I have never been disappointed! Their stock ranges from new systems like the Xbox Series X (sometimes) to Nintendo 64 games and everything in between. Outside of video games they have the most complete and open selection of Pokémon cards I have every seen in one store, singles, boosters, ETBs, and more! Go here if you're looking for something nostalgic or something new!

Experiencia fantástica: Always find good stuff here!

Experiencia fantástica: Great place for all your video game needs,

Experiencia fantástica: A rather humbling shop. They also had Infamous. This review may have a tad bit o' bias. Did he mention they had Infamous?

Experiencia fantástica: Always have tons of cool stuff, would definitely visit more if it wasn't such a drive for me.

Experiencia positiva: Place is truly a hidden gem for retro video games. Great selection but my biggest pet peeve is not marking price on games. I understand the gaming market price is fluctuating but it's super annoying having to ask the price on every single game. May have bought more games but just makes the whole shopping experience longer than it needs to be.

Experiencia fantástica: Has a nice range of selections.

Experiencia fantástica: Amazing selection and service!

Experiencia fantástica: Nice store very nice staff

Experiencia fantástica: Super cool people and great selection of games and equipment

Experiencia fantástica: Nice selection, mostly fair pricing, clean, and worth a visit

Experiencia fantástica: Amazing video game store, and amazing selection of Pokemon cards! Highly recommend!!!

Experiencia positiva: Friendly employees, selection isnt the best but not bad at all, I come here often.

Experiencia fantástica: If you are into retro gaming this is the place to go. The outside of the building itself is non-descript (you better put the address into Google Maps or you might miss it), but inside is a treasure trove of games from about every game console you grew up with (from Intellivision/Atari up through the PS4/XBOX ONE). My family and I spent a good hour in the store going through the many different game titles available and came away with some good finds for the NES and SNES systems that I managed to find in my parents house (they also sell the vintage systems if you don't have them). The store clerk was very knowledgeable and helped guide us in our search. They also have some collectibles here such as Pokemon Cards. If you are a gamer, or have one in your life, I highly recommend coming here.

Experiencia fantástica: Staff very friendly, good prices. Lots of product. Fair.

Experiencia fantástica: Patrick was very nice

Experiencia fantástica: Good prices and really good deals on trading in cards or games for cash or store credit, they won't lowball you like gamestop. Great selection of video games and a growing pokemon collection. The employees helped me look through pokemon commons for an hour to get some cards for a deck.

Experiencia fantástica: Great people to do business with

Experiencia fantástica: Forever Games is the Best Game Store ever.Better than Game stop,People are so friendly and very helpful, they have almost every game you can think of.Play Station 3,Play Station 4,etc,they even have old Game systems,this place is awesome, and #1 in my book.Best Game Store ever.

Experiencia fantástica: Great place

Experiencia fantástica: Awesome shop full of games and cards. The store is beautiful and clean. The owner is honest and a collector himself. The staff is very helpful and the prices are very good. The products are legit and I plan on telling my friends of this location so they can check it out themselves. Stay awesome guys!

Experiencia positiva: Fair price on games and consoles.

Experiencia fantástica: Best place to get Video Games and hard to find Pokemon Cards in Ohio.

Experiencia fantástica: AMAZING hole in the wall retro gamestore. Was in town for work and googled retro game stores in the Columbus area and chose this one because of the ratings and was not dissapointed. Prices more or less matched pricecharting.com prices and some were even less which was nice. Due to covid a lot of stuff had been bought out but still had an awesome selection of master system, genesis, ps1, and snes games that I’m currently looking for. If they don’t have it in store they might have it on their eBay store so don’t hesitate to ask. If your in the Columbus area definitely stop by here!

Experiencia fantástica: Great selection of retro games. Employees are very nice and knowledgeable

Experiencia fantástica: Huge selection of games.

Experiencia fantástica: Incredible individual pokemon card selection, the owner is super helpful and very knowledgeable!
