I cant help but respect these guys, you know? Its almost like they can do no wrong. Yes, sometimes their price has me scratching my head, and while their average price for a video game is $10 and not $5 like I had suggested (you can find a lot of retro games at nearby stores for $5), they are just such classy guys. 9/10ths of their employees are soooo eager to help you and they will interact with you rather than just being people at a cash register. They have video games you can play inside the store and can test your system out. They have a 2 week return option if something is not working and they honor that beyond their own need. I had a broken xbox I bought but due to my paramedic clinicals I only got to play it about 3 weeks after I bought it. No problem! They understood and returned it. Same thing happened with one disc that was messed up. I wouldnt advocate waiting 3 weeks because that takes advantage of them, but there were absolutely no qualms in switching it out for a working xbox. These guys rock. Best customer service in town and all around just genuinely nice people who purely enjoy video games. 5/5. Definitely check this place out.

Awesome survice and fantastic technology with sonic speed, not like any other stores. Only $32, Michael got my sons old, old intendo to life. He and Ryan are so patiently to help me learn how to set up and play. I felt bad as a slow learner as a senior, but Micgael kept encouraging me. I want give him $8 tip, Michael is not accepted it. Michael said, he ENJOY to teach and help people! Wow!!! Love those young genarations, they are our future! I really think Michael can be trusted as store manager! Maybe he is already, if not he should be promoted. I owned a budiness, I knew what kind people to trust! Thanks again, Michael and Ryan! Great future is waiting for you!!! Christina

They have the best variety of any video game there was ever made. They most likely will have the game you want. I love looking at all there old school games, especially since I still have some working old school consoles. My only complaint would be the prices. They are a little high on prices and I get they want to compete with eBay and be better then gamestop, which they have exceeded at just by their variety of games, (way more games then hardtop carries). But if they lowered their prices they would make more sales. I would be one of them.

I visited Games Over Video Games this morning as I have an old Sega Genesis that has not been working and I was not sure it could be fixed so I took it in to have test and look at it, the person at the front desk was very helpful, polite and great attitude; he test it out, checked cables and advised me in cleaning the cartridges contacts and after a quick cleaning, it started to work, so happy the old Sega Genesis is working so I decided to pick up another Sega Genesis game as I was already there: The Lion King. Thank you Game Over Videogames!

I only visited once as a traveler but I was in awe of their video game selection. Anything and everything you could be searching for and theyd probably have it. Theyre not cheap though. Their pricing structure sees some games being "deals" but most everything else had a little premium on it. That said, I walked out having scooped up some desirable games for my collection. They also have a museum section with video game systems through the generations and it shows the owner(s) have a passion for video games, regardless of age.

So they just tweeted that theyre having a sale for 17% off everything in-store and I was just there earlier. When I called to see how we could go back and get my 17% back, they said that since I already purchased it, it wouldnt apply. Total BS and crappy customer service. Thatll be the last time I shop here. Oh, and do yourself the favor and shop around on price. I guarantee youll find cheaper deals almost anywhere else.

This store was a let down. Overpriced and lousy selection. Tons of sports games and common games on the racks. I couldnt find any zelda, mario, or sonic titles anywhere!? How do you not have those? If you wanna see anything good, its on a wall behind the counter and its hard to see the titles. At least put them in the glass case. The systems were reasonably priced so that was a plus.

Fun place to come to! Theyve got all kinds of games and other cool stuff like posters and toys. The video games sold are at a fair price as well. My friend did buy a couple of games that didnt play correctly, but he was able to get a refund. The games are mostly used though, so dont expect them to be in perfect condition all the time.

This is a great place if you love retro games. It has a massive collection of older games that you dont see everyday. Prices are fair for a retail store. You wont find any really great deals, but at the same time its convenient if you are looking for a harder to find game. The staff is nice and can recommend games.

Love this place. Tons of cool stuff. Little museum in the back full of retro consoles and controllers and even some local gaming art. Staff is very friendly. I go in here every few weeks just to see if they have something Im missing. Earthworm Jim?! Are you kidding me? Great store.

There are some great people that work here. Friendly and knowledgeable: two qualities that are important for running this kind of store. If you can sell videogames ranging from Atari 2600 to PlayStation 4, you get an automatic 5 stars. Been there twice and loved it both times.

The people who work here are extremely knowledgeable about games and the systems. Ive never come in with a question and left unanswered. They sell games and systems in great condition and have a return policy in case they dont work. I wont shop anywhere else for my games!

Awesome selection of old school video games. The staff is knowledgeable and honest about a games gaming experience, no fake up selling here. The games are reasonably priced and in great condition. But my favorite part has to be the video game museum.

I came their look for an n64 a bit overprice but u can return it unlike eBay. The games are priced fair but the box games go up to 200 dollars but thats whatever. The games I bought were clean looked brand new as if you bought them in the 1990s

I went here out of curiosity and fell in love with this place! Its a lot of fun to just browse their collection, and the workers are super friendly. If you like games and appreciate video game history, this is a must see store!

I think this is a cool store but its true allot of things there are overpriced some things are reasonable depends on what you want. But great staff knowledgeable and great customer service when your looking for vintage games.

Amazing collection of games at fair market value. But the guys behind the register have ignored me every time Ive gone. I stand at the counter for a few minutes and practically have to grab and shake them to get any service.
