Experiencia fantástica: Great customer service! One worker helped me find a game I’ve been looking for for months and it was in great condition! Highly recommend for any retro or even recent game fans who want hard copies of their favourite games!

Tiffany Ormonde Publicada en Google 2 months ago

Experiencia fantástica: Awesome customer service! I bought a CIB DS game but the game card was not in great condition. I collect games and I really care about the condition. I saw before I left that they had one loose in great condition. They let me come back and swap the game with the one in better condition. I definitely recommend shopping here!

Experiencia fantástica: If you like old school gaming, pokemon, and retro stuff in general, you need to check this place out. Staff is extremely kind and generous. I've been consistently stopping by periodically, you never know what you'll find!! Very fun place.

Experiencia fantástica: Very friendly and knowledgable staff. Selection is always very good for multiples systems, and they also carry tcgs and heroclix as well. prices are very fair and there's always a ton of stuff to look at. Always a great place to go hang out if nothing else.

Momilani Tatsumiya Publicada en Google 4 months ago

Experiencia fantástica: Stopped by the Studio Hero x 1 Up Retro fundraiser pop-up after the store break-in, and it honestly reminded me why community matters so much. Even with everything they had been through, the vibe was welcoming and supportive, and it was really cool to see people show up for them. We came toward the end of the event and weren’t able to participate fully, but the fact that so many businesses and customers rallied around 1 Up Retro speaks volumes. Wishing them continued success and definitely planning to support in the future.

Experiencia fantástica: Place is very nostalgic with games from all different consoles, past & present. Staff seems knowledgeable which makes browsing and finding those hard to find games pleasant.

Christopher Silva Publicada en Google 5 months ago

Experiencia fantástica: An amazing store with amazing staff. You can find a large variety of old school and retro gaming merch along with some newer things. As someone who loved stores like tower video and dimple records growing up in the Sacramento area this store is a breath of what used to be. We gotta love and support our small local businesses!

Chris Heafner Publicada en Google 5 months ago

Experiencia fantástica: Hands down the best retro games and consoles store in Sacramento. The staff members are highly knowledgeable of the products they’re selling while being respectful and friendly. We absolutely love 1-Up Retro and have been customers for years now and I don’t see that changing anytime soon. Oh, and sign up for their free rewards’ program—it’s 100% worth it!

Experiencia positiva: Great place shout out to Brenden definitely the highlight of the store prices are a little higher than I expected but great selection definitely better the place in rocklin my only complaint is that the layout is a little bit messy games were in odd spots and unorganized but otherwise great place.

Experiencia fantástica: World class selection of retro games and they are starting to dabble in the TCG space! With their large venue, I'd love to see their TCG presence grow

Donzele Foster Publicada en Google 6 months ago

Experiencia fantástica: Easily the best retro video game store in Sacramento County.

Brandon K Publicada en Google 6 months ago

Experiencia positiva: Great location with a pretty average selection. I get the feeling they, reasonably enough, rely on in-house trades for stock, but I don't think I've gone in and been able to find a game I was actively looking for. I would recommend they "seed" their stock with online purchases even if it means marking them up $10 to compensate. They have plenty of systems but the game selection is the equivalent of a wall of Madden 2007s for PS2: Whatever they have, you probably already have it or don't really want it. I like that they put on local events but there are other local options for when I'm looking for decent games.

Katsu_Images188 Publicada en Google 6 months ago

Chris Fox Publicada en Google 6 months ago

Experiencia fantástica: 1-Up Retro Video Games is an awesome spot for anyone who loves classic gaming. The store is packed with retro consoles, old-school cartridges, and some collectibles that bring back all the nostalgia. The staff are friendly, helpful, and clearly know their stuff, which makes browsing even more fun. They also have a small section with art for sale, some posters and a couple of Mario-themed pieces. It would be nice to see more of that creative touch throughout the shop since it would really add to the overall vibe. A few more themed decorations or local gaming art would make the space even cooler. Overall, it’s a great store with a huge selection and a lot of heart. Whether you are hunting for rare games or just want to reminisce about the classics, 1-Up Retro Video Games is absolutely worth checking out.

Experiencia negativa: As a card shop stay away they don’t like to negotiate and they are overpriced even at market prices . Go buy cards elsewhere.

Harald Scherka (Leonbaerry) Publicada en Google 8 months ago

Experiencia fantástica: Nice store in the heart of Midtown Sacramento (J-Street) for gamers on all possible platforms. X-Box, PlayStation, Nintendo, Sega ... whatever. Made some good priced X-Box One deals. Too much old games? You can sell them here. Only the parking situation is not the best one. Nice employees inside ... great for gamers.

Valen Publicada en Google 8 months ago

Experiencia fantástica: Nice store honestly, easy to find stuff inside it, staffs nice, decent prices, they sell cheap Pokémon cards, 25 cents for loose, Pokémon cards that aren't worth really anything, theres still some cool older cards, and holos mixed in and some pokemon that belong to trainers like Team Rocket, good for those trying to collect Pokémon cards for fun, they also sell ex and v and older Pokémon cards for 75 cents to 5 dollars depending on what you are buying, I'd recommend this shop for anyone looking for Pokémon cards but dont care as much for valuable cards, they do also sell cards that are kinda valuable, i saw a $200 collectable one there if that interests you, its good if you're trying to get all 1025 Pokémon or trying to find ex, v, Japanese and older(like 2005, 2007) cards or find cards like Arvens Pokémon or Team Rockets Pokémon for your collection

Andrew Publicada en Google 9 months ago

Experiencia negativa: Good selection. They charge way too much though for the condition they keep the cases in. No plastic sleeves and they apply tape directly to cases leaving residual glue and damaging items. If they arent going to take care of the product they shouldnt be trying to charge premium resell prices. Edit reply: They did not clean residue (or offer) and the plastic sleeves would allow clear viewing of the cases just fine, also without every random persons oils touching the cases. Again premium prices with the shop unwilling to go the extra mile. Better to just buy online tbh.

Edward Newgate Publicada en Google 10 months ago

Experiencia negativa: Good prices on retro consoles but other than that this place is too dirty. The ground needs to be mopped or shined or something, it feels like I'm in a Goodwill. You might as well not even have a card section of the store, the prices are horrible and the bulk isn't organized and there are dirty and damaged modern cards in the boxes! There is cheap video game merch you can tell was cheaply made, you don't have to peddle bad merch! Lastly, not enough inventory.

Jonathan Godinez-Esquivel Publicada en Google 10 months ago

Experiencia fantástica: I come here all the time for all my Retro video games! I currently have a PS2 and the staff here have been very chill and helpful every time I go. Great game selection and they always have different retro consoles in stock.

DLUXX Publicada en Google 10 months ago

Experiencia negativa: I come into the store always expecting to find something good and I do. I would’ve given a better review if only the whole damn store wasn’t display. I’m tryna shop not enter a whole museum and I’m kinda being over dramatic w this one because it only happened once, I think. But bros what am I supposed to do with copper when diamond is right in front of me.

Joshua Olson Publicada en Google 11 months ago

Experiencia fantástica: This was my first time coming to 1-up but I honestly love retro gaming stores being a gamer from an early age. It has everything from all generations to new titles. Very welcoming art and staff.

Matthew Stanley Publicada en Google 1 year ago

Experiencia fantástica: I came in pretty late to see if I could trade in some old games. Even though they were closing up for the day and couldn't take trade ins, they were kind enough to give me time to quote me on everything. Really appreciated the kindness and transparency.

Alexander Ochoa Publicada en Google 1 year ago

Experiencia fantástica: I arrived at this place for the second time after 6 years, and I can say that I left with the same satisfaction as last time, the employees were friendly and very helpful, and I bought again With the confidence that I will enjoy my purchase.

Rachel Truscott Publicada en Google 1 year ago

Experiencia fantástica: Ok, the sheer fact that Retro Video Games has Sega Genesis games for sale is amazing, but that those who work there can actually tell you about them… wow! Mind blowing. Retro Video Games is by far the best game shop I have ever discovered!

Matthew Haskins Publicada en Google 1 year ago

Experiencia fantástica: They replace batteries in gameboy games. Quick turn around. Reasonable prices. Very helpful staff.

MauricioEtc Publicada en Google 1 year ago

Experiencia fantástica: I have been coming here once or twice a week for the past 3 years! You’ll find some really good gems every so often! I recommend this store to all my friends and family who like collectibles, video games, and events. I LOVE when there are gaming events here. I’ve had the most fun during new game releases and giveaways. :)

Brent Phillips Publicada en Google 1 year ago

Experiencia fantástica: Great selection, great people, and great atmosphere. New games seem to rotate in at least once a week. Prices are fair and reasonable. Love this place, I definitely stop by or call before I even think of going on eBay.

Matt Townsend Publicada en Google 1 year ago

Experiencia fantástica: With myself being considered a Gamer starting back in the days of the Super Nintendo system & onwards (Super Nintendo, N64, Playstation, Playstation 2, Playstation 3, etc.), I honestly love what's now considered as "Retro Gaming." So with today (2/10/25) eventually/finally being my first visit to this Retro Gaming Store, I absolutely loved the environment. The staff were friendly & really helpful. They unfortunately didn't have every PS2/PS3/PSP corresponding games/accessories I asked about, but I eventually found at least 4 PS2 games I had ask if they had. I definitely want to go back as often as possible, & most definitely recommend other Retro Gamers to check out this store if you don't already know about it.

Michael Publicada en Google 1 year ago

Experiencia fantástica: Love the selection and location. Always a great visit even if I leave without a new purchase!

Eric Gomez Publicada en Google 1 year ago

Experiencia fantástica: As always, 1up Retro had great customer service and the staff was very helpful and friendly. The pricing is always fair and if they don’t have what you’re looking for, they’re more than happy to help you find it where it is available. I keep coming back because of the staff more than anything.

Richard Pochop Publicada en Google 1 year ago

Kim Kitsuragi Publicada en Google 1 year ago

Experiencia fantástica: Fantastic selection of retro games, collector's editions, and gifts for the gamer in your life. The staff are passionate about games and are always happy to help you. The t-shirts, stickers, and jewelry available for purchase are created by local artists. There are also several machines available for free play. This is a must-see in Sac!

Steph Raffety Publicada en Google 1 year ago

Experiencia fantástica: Obsessed with this store! Right in the heart of midtown, it’s a nostalgic gamers dream come true! The service is wonderful and all of the staff is so helpful. I recommend all to stop in and just relive the joys of their childhood. Or even bring your own children to share a piece of the past with them through the unique gems you can find here!

Frank Frankenhunter Publicada en Google 1 year ago

Experiencia fantástica: We were pleasantly surprised to find a retro game store that fully embraced the concept. Vintage video game posters adorn the walls, video game music is blaring from the speakers, stuff from the ancient Atari all the way up to the PS5 on every shelf. My whole family loved it and we'll be returning soon.

Gary McCall (Tek) Publicada en Google 1 year ago

Experiencia fantástica: Workers were super polite, everywhere I looked I immediately wanted to buy, and this place is great if you’re into vintage video games or just to browse. Either way, this is a great place to be!

Lisa Davis Publicada en Google 1 year ago

Experiencia fantástica: This store is pretty cool. They got old-fashioned games and Pokemon cards. You could get either either a Wii, a Xbox, or a PlayStation at a reasonable price. This is the perfect place for video games lovers.

Manuel Ramirez Publicada en Google 1 year ago

Experiencia fantástica: 1 UP RETRO STORE is one of my favorite Game store here in sacramento I really recommend this store . They always have good selection of games and a Lot of Retro stuff can be found here . Highly recommend. Always good vibes here , The best of the best !!!!!

Diego Lomeli-Katen Publicada en Google 1 year ago

Experiencia fantástica: Was in Sacramento and my friends Jerod and Jace from my part time job at Laughing Crow Collectibles in Modesto told me to check them out at some point and figured this eas the perfect time. The shop was very spacious with arcade games in the back and a testing station for games in front. While their I was able to find a couple of things for my personal collection for an affordable price. Will definitely check back in!

unusualmuse Publicada en Google 1 year ago

Experiencia fantástica: We love 1-Up! The staff are always super friendly and helpful. New stock comes in on a fairly regular basis, and the vibe of the place makes it fun to make a trip in even when they don’t happen to have that one thing you’re looking for. Awesome local business!

Dakota “Snortrax” Medina Publicada en Google 1 year ago

Experiencia negativa: Woke up to a text: "It's been a while since we've seen you @ 1-Up Retro Video Games. Here's a special offer: Trade in $25 in items and receive a $15 Store Credit (valid from 07/26/2024 to 08/02/2024)." When I arrived I was told they are not accepting trade ins even thought I had stuff like ZTotK in ex shape. I want to support independent stores but with poor selection of games and worse customer service I won't be coming back. I wish I didn't have to go to the big box store but they did give me over $150 in credit for the same bag of games 1-Up wouldn't look at

OCD NIC Publicada en Google 1 year ago

Experiencia fantástica: One of my absolute favorite shops in sac to get retro games and equipment. The game selection is through the roof, they have a great selection of TCG as well. This place has a great friendly environment you just can’t beat. 5 star facility!!!

Gene Wu Publicada en Google 1 year ago

Experiencia positiva: Broad selection of retro games, including PS1, Xbox, Dreamcast, PC, Nintendo DS, Nintendo 64, Atari, and more! Got a steal on a PS2 Slim, along with a few games to accompany the system, all of which came out to roughly $220! My favorite part of the transaction was that this store has a points system, so if you're a returning customer, you can accumulate points to apply discounts to future purchases!

Tsu Yang Publicada en Google 1 year ago

Experiencia fantástica: Had a great selection of games. Love the little set up for the game lounge. Prices were a bit over market. But not outrageous like others.

Amber Ambuehl Publicada en Google 1 year ago

Experiencia fantástica: From the moment I stepped through the door, I was greeted by a cornucopia of merchandise that would make any nerd girl squeal with delight. Everything neatly organized and displayed like artifacts in a museum of pop culture. With themed decorations and memorabilia adorning every corner. It's a place where you can lose yourself for hours, browsing shelves lined with treasures that speak to the inner geek in all of us But what truly sets 1- Up apart is its staff—knowledgeable, passionate, and just as geeky as the merchandise they sell. Thank you!

Ms. Susy - Academic Instructor Spanish and English Publicada en Google 1 year ago

Experiencia fantástica: A unique video game store in a large open space, where one can browse freely through the variety of merchandise they offer. They have Game Consoles, Japanese Handhelds, Cool Upgrade Accessories, Cables Of course, Stickers, Plushies, Lego sets, Anime, T-shirts, Posters, Toys, Large Selection of Collectable Items, Drinks, Candy, and anything related you don’t find, they will try to get for you. They also do shipping. Not overpriced. With gaming consoles on-site for you & your kids. PET FRIENDLY TOO (stop by with your pooch for a doggy treat) Open every day!

Jonathon Miller Publicada en Google 1 year ago

Experiencia fantástica: 1-Up is a great experience. My young sons loves to shop there and they treat him like any other customer. They are knowledge and helpful. It can get warm during the summer, but the store has a great atmosphere. It's a place where gamers can hang out. They also have comfy couches for the non-gamers to relax while the others shop.

Moi Moi Publicada en Google 1 year ago

Experiencia fantástica: This place has amazing retro games and you can find some of the coolest things downtown. Update: this place has given me some of the best trade-ins for store credit in the Sacramento area compared to GameStop and some other stores. The owner is chill and treats returning customers amazingly. The selection of retro games is pretty cool and they have some unique items such as inbox Chrono Trigger which is pretty awesome to see. I also have a little lounge area where you can just kick back and play some games and hang out.

Trevor Sparks (Medessec) Publicada en Google 2 years ago

Experiencia fantástica: Fantastic store with chill and welcoming atmosphere. Chatted up one of the Staff for like, 15 minutes. The manager there is very friendly and helpful. Place is well kept and orderly. Awesome place to go for anyone who likes any sort of video games.

Joslynn (Anxiety Girl) Publicada en Google 2 years ago

Experiencia fantástica: As a customer, since it’s opening on its first day, watching it grow into a staple and part of the community in Midtown Sacramento. It’s super cool. I’m not quite sure if it’s the owner. I interact with every time I’m in there, but my son always has plenty of questions, he is always so excited to go and hang out there. Both gentlemen that my son is interacted with have been kind and patient, and we were just there yesterday and they were extraordinarily busy and my son wanted to talk about his retro gaming collection and the gentleman was so interested in what he had to say and it made my heart happy to see my son engaging with people. As a mother of a child with autism I have to say thank you very much. It’s nice To know that when he’s in your store, he will not be made fun of and his business is appreciated in his enthusiasm for gaming is met with your great enthusiasm. Side note, I purchased a game that was not compatible with my consul and they just exchanged it. No questions asked it was really really cool. Another thing on a financial note they have a customer appreciation sign-up and the points don’t expire and that’s a big help if we don’t make it in time, another thing so if you break something they can typically fix it or replace the parts It’s not just a fun place. It’s actually a legit business to help keep your investment running. Thank you

Luke Sokolov Publicada en Google 2 years ago

These guys here do a great job yes old games were sadly damaged as they were playable beforehand but it’s not like they are expensive games they are old. They are professional here and always cool to hang out with and talk games. ** this review should be taken down by google**

Hello Leon! Sorry to hear your discs didn't come out shiny. Bring them by so we can resurface them for you at no cost. The resurfaced can't cause top damage as the bottom of the disc is the only area that is touched.

Raven “Misty Teves” Teves Publicada en Google 2 years ago

Experiencia fantástica: Great place, staff is wonderful, knowledgeable, if they don’t know something they will go above and beyond to help. Also just a cool place to come and look for games to see what they have, if you’re a collector of physical media (which I hope never goes out of style) like me than you may find something to add to that collection. Trust me give this place a go when you can.

Zach Buono Publicada en Google 2 years ago

Experiencia positiva: I have a gone a few times to 1-Up as the location is great in Midtown. The selection is decent for how much foot traffic they get. I was a bit disappointed with my first purchase at the shop. I bought two games and it ended up being that 1 of them the case was broke on the inside so the outer case was taped shut?? I not sure why a Gamestore would sell a game like then when they could easily replace it. This is even more disappointing especially when the pricing at 1 up is not great. Prices will be above Ebay and Pricecharting.

Alex Magrino Publicada en Google 2 years ago

Experiencia fantástica: So fortunate to have this place in our community. Huge selection of hard to find older games, consoles and equipment at fair prices. Friendly knowledgeable employees. Fun atmosphere.

Jman Rising Publicada en Google 2 years ago

Experiencia negativa: It would be nice to find a retro video game store in Sacramento…that doesn’t just lazily use eBay scalpers for reference for a change. Prices at 1up are just as bad, if not worse than eBay. And just a waste of time and money for collectors like me. For what it’s worth the store at least has some atmosphere and games set up to play, but inventory was nothing special and fairly small, especially for the prices they were asking. The search goes on for a retro video game store in Sacramento that’s any good.

Hoai Nguyen Publicada en Google 2 years ago

Experiencia fantástica: 1-Up Retro Video Games in Sacramento, CA is a nostalgia haven for gamers. Their impressive collection of vintage games and consoles is a trip down memory lane.

Experiencia fantástica: Hands down the best gaming store for all of your gaming needs. Whether you're looking to buy something second hand or brand new, you'll most likely be able to find what you need here. I just purchased an Xbox Series X for $100 off retail and it came with the 1TB memory expansion ($200 value) for no extra cost. You'll also be able to find a ton of retro video games/consoles and cards from several TCG's. The staff was incredibly helpful and knowledgeable as well.

Jessica M Publicada en Google 3 years ago

Experiencia fantástica: Fantastic customer service. My husband and I stop in a few times a month when we're in the neighborhood and almost always buy a couple of games. The employees are nice, selection is solid, and the prices are good. Recently we bought a game but when we got home and opened it we realized it wasn't the game it was supposed to be but instead 4 random discs that were useless to us. I immediately called and the employee who answered said they'd look for the original game and make it right the next time we visited the store. Due to holiday travel we didn't make it back in for a couple weeks and a different employee was working. I was worried that it'd been too long and they wouldn't honor the promise made to us over the phone, fortunately the employee working, Mikaela, turned out to be so helpful. I explained the entire situation, she was unable to locate the game we'd thought we bought so she gave me a full refund and a discount on a replacement game. I really appreciate that she made things right, she was apologetic and took responsibility even though she wasn't the one who made the mistake. I def appreciated her help!

Experiencia fantástica: Friendly associate. I have found what I like and the used games are in perfect shape. This shop offers 7-day return policy without any reason needed. They wil repair all kinds of game console.

Experiencia positiva: Really happy this place exists and it fits perfectly in the midtown vibes. Record shops, boba, coffee, comics and now retro video games! There are also new video games, though the main attraction is seeing games from previous eras. They keep the good stuff behind the counter. Some key RPGs and a surprisingly ample collection of PS vita games. I think the biggest collection was PS2. The only reason why I put down 4 stars is because there still a lot of unsorted games behind the counters. They need more display space. Once they have that up, then it’ll be great. Still absolutely worth the visit though!

Experiencia fantástica: Calling all geeks lol.Pretty cool store. Big video selection. Everything from Nintendo, Sega, Playstation and basically every gaming consoles ever made lol. The inventory is constantly changing so you never know what your gonna find . They have random odds and ends like plush toys, stickers, etc. They resurface game disks for $4 bucks if you have a game that doesn't play anymore because its all scratched up, they can fix it. They repair, buy, sell, and trade. The 2 young men at the store were really kind and very knowledgeable. They had an answer to all my questions. Check them out, call them or send a message on Instagram.

Experiencia fantástica: This is a really cute store. I love the painted murals, the layout of the store is fun and functional. The owner is very kind and gave us a price break for multiple purchases. We'll be back!

Experiencia positiva: In terms of service and variety of console, this place almost has it all from NES to the Xbox one and knowledge on all as well. They have an impressive variety of games as well but if you are looking for a very popular game from a console, you may see yourself paying a hefty amount or seeing that it is not in stock. Although do not let this discourage you, as I am only a college student and do not have the correct knowledge to appraise game costs. I saw go in and look around because the store is quite neat and interesting. Would recommend.

Experiencia fantástica: Great store, big selection and a very friendly atmosphere. I was really impressed and think its an amazing place! They have newer and older stuff, including some pretty deep cuts. They are also having fun with their decor, e.g. using a frozen food cabinet to hold games.

Experiencia fantástica: My GO TO retro or current game store. GREAT STAFF, very knowledgeable unlike those folks you get at a chain store. The owner is great, prices are fair and they get the biggest turnaround of any store I've seen. Always new stuff out, they get a ton of trade ins. Can't say enough about this place and normally I'm "Mr. critical"..lol.

Experiencia positiva: In Sacramento on vacation and decided to check this place out. Huge selection and cool atmosphere. However, I bought two games here and neither of them worked. The PS2 disc had tons of scratches, and the DS game was very visibly corroded. I imagine they don't really test any of the games considering the only two I bought were in bad condition. Returning the games was very quick and easy. If you are local, this place probably rules because returning a broken game is really simple, but I would avoiding buying anything here if you're from out of town.

Experiencia positiva: Awesome store! But usually understaffed and/or they just ignore customers while they move stuff around in the back. Also, they constantly have card in their .25 cents box, but when you go to pay for them they tell you they were in the wrong place, and they end up being a few dollars, or even 10 or 20 dollars. Once they iron out the issues we will go back, but not for a while. We were spending a few hundred dollars a month there, but back to GameStop and Amazon

Experiencia fantástica: Just came back from a stop into 1UP Retro to trade in a couple consoles, controllers and a game. Their trade in amounts trump Gamestop's. The process was quick and easy, and Travis was great to talk to! I wanted to spend more time in there but could not. Cool artwork, tons of games, cool arcade machines, and lots more. Check it out if you're thinking of buying anything video game related, or if you want to trade in your current stuff. Thanks guys!

Experiencia fantástica: Travis is a great shop owner. There's is always a full selection and great store policy to be had for any issue products, more than other shops offer. He ensures that he takes care of his customers, and his store. I've had a couple issues with product, but it's nothing that hasn't been resolved. We are lucky as a community to have a great shop with an endearing owner.

Experiencia fantástica: 1-Up Retro is my family's favorite game store! We can find something for everyone and we always find a ton of good stuff. The employees are friendly and the atmosphere is welcoming. We enjoy the music. In-store events are also cool - we attended a game release and had a great time! Highly recommended if you're looking for retro - modern video game stuff.

Experiencia positiva: They’re very nice don’t get me wrong, but there have been many incidents where I have been told, “Hey, if you really need something from us it’s best you give us a call! Thanks man, have a good day!”, I got a call on a game that I have been wanting I called them to hold it for me like they said they would and I got zero calls back nor an answer. I love their hospitality and the way they make you feel that gamer nostalgia, but wish communication to these guys was better.

Harlan Addams Publicada en Google 5 years ago

Experiencia positiva: New and old games, as well as rare ones. All at seemingly reasonable prices. 4/5 only because the staff is typically caught off-guard with general questions and doesnt seem to be as knowledgeable about games as you'd think someone selling 5-star rarity games would be. Aside from that, the atmosphere, collection, and overall friendliness of the staff is top notch.

Ren Dalo Publicada en Google 5 years ago

Experiencia fantástica: If you enjoy the classics and newer games you should check this place out! The staff were super friendly and helpful, the selection was impressive (NES, PS4 and lots in between), and the decor was a perfect homage to retro gaming. Their used game prices are much better than GameStop, they do trade-ins, and they offer a 7-day guarantee on games. We’ll be coming back for sure!
