The store was very clean, the employee behind the counter was very nice and very helpful, and the store looked like it was something out of my dreams. I saw an unbelievable amount of rare games at this store. It wasnt until I looked at a particular game that I had been looking for for a long time that I realized there was more to this store than originally met the eye. It appeared the game (and very expensive mind you) was being sold as "ugly", instead of as a reproduction cart, which it was. The cart was beat up and discolored, which isnt a bad thing if youre looking for authentic games, but this one felt lighter than the average game. When I turned it around, the Nintendo warning label looked like it was printed using a standard printer label, and the front of the cartridge looked like they printed the label, and then taped it over with masking tape to make it look glossy. There was even a tape bubble on the label from this. It occurred to me at this point, the store has a great assortment of reproduction carts, and they have a borderline unhealthy amount of rare cartridge games that dont balance out with the amount of un-rare games they have. It was extremely disappointing to see this, especially when you find a game that youve been looking for for a long time. Again, the reason I give them two stars is because the store itself looks great, and the help is extremely friendly and nice. But buyers beware. If youre looking for authentic cartridges of rare games, pay close attention. You may not get what you think youre getting.

Ive been here many times before, however everytime I go back they leave a bitter taste in my mouth. As of just now, they are as every video game trader is; ripping off with return games. Which is unfortunately a given with gamestores as such, but still distasteful. They have decent selection, even with novelty things but are overpriced- and more importantly; "temporarily out of stock" on well known and well wanted games ; including one i wanted. Weeks and weeks went by as I tried to go back to aqquire said games, and still out of stock. So i attempted to order them and of course; itd be far more money than the game itself is even worth. So that was rather unfortunate.

This store is awesome! The people are very nice and very knowledgeable about everything they have. The prices are very reasonable as well. I have an N64 and a GameCube that they trouble shot for me for free! However I had to buy another GameCube because mine was broken but they gave me a 20% discount on it because I just bought the deck and didnt have to buy any cables with it. This will be my gaming store from now on for as long as they are open. They do not try to rip you off like GameStop either when you sell them any of your gaming equipment. Id give them 10 Mario Party stars if I could.

This place is pretty great I honestly prefer going here for games and consoles instead of GameStop. The place looks like a dream come true. I walked in there and never in my whole life have I felt so much enjoyment seeing all the games for all the consoles and I mean ALL THE CONSOLES. The staffing are very generous and helpful to give you a helping hand if you need anything. I recommend anyone who enjoys and loves playing video games to go here you wont regret it. :)

Super Awesome Store!! Good prices, and HUGE selection from every console. They have a table where you can try out retro games and chill. They even send you txts with deals and coupons. Idk his name, usualle hes there in the afternoons weekdays, but hes a really helpful and down to earth dude. Its great when staff have actual knowledge about the games. Ill be back here a lot.

This place is awesome. As a collector, this place is heavenly. They have all retro games and even some imports. If you have ever used the video game trader app or magazine, its published here. The prices are really good and very close to what youll pay for online. The owner is really cool and he offers good cash and credit for your old games.

way over priced. at least they have retro games tho. return policy sucks im stuck without my game for 4-5 days cuz i bought it and it didnt work. now i have to wait till they get another copy in so they can replace it. i would have taken store credit but they wouldnt give it to me. i got 40 store credit too for my entire wii game collection.

Very cool store! It was worth the stop. My fiance and I browsed through several items and we spent a lot of time there. Very happy that no one tried to rush us out, even when we sat for a little to play on some of the systems they had out. We would go more often, but we arent usually in that area. Definitely will stop by of we are though!

My boyfriend and I visited the store this past Sunday from out of town and we were so amazed at the selection of games they had and at good prices! They were much better than other game stores we visited in the area. Plus the guys that work there were really nice and knew a lot about games. We would totally visit again!

Totally worth our hour drive! Found all sorts of games and nostalgia at this hidden gem of a store. Clean, organized, repairs available, great kind staff, and things youll only find here! Youre able to play the game, if youd like, and theyre happy to let you know when items are available. Awesome store!

Went in a few times, traded in old games and bought some used ones. The staff is super nice and very friendly. Really great collection of retro games, not so many super new ones, which is understandable. I will definitely recommend this store to my friends and am happy I went here.

Staff always friendly and super helpful. Have great selection of used games for older and classic systems, as well as a few collectors type items. They are happy to put a game on a list for you and contact if someone trades it in. Prices consistent with internet.

Great place for old school enthusiasts! Their console selection is stellar (Sega CD, Neo Geo[!]) and the owner is friendly. Only disappointment is that their game selection looked a little picked over at the time. Best local mom-and-pop Ive seen near Atlanta.

The people working here are very kind and help me find what I need. Ive even made friends with them! Very high quality games for cheap would recommend coming in with $50 though if your new because of the games youll want to spend all your money :) very pleased

Great selection of games, for pretty much every system one could desire. Store is well organized, and I was particularly impressed with the condition of the games. Prices are very reasonable. I enjoyed my visit and would happily return.

This is THE place to go if you are looking for any new or used video game. Great customer service and huge selection. I recommend them to anyone. They are family friendly and extremely patient with younger customers.
