I’ve been going pretty often nowadays, and every time I go it’s a great experience. The prices are extremely fair (better than eBay prices). I love retro games, and it’s cool this place is pretty close to me. Owner is a chill dude too.

Not a very welcoming store. I was there for about 20 min and no staff asked me if I needed help. And very dismissive when I did ask for help. The pros , they do have a good collection of retro games and misc items/collectibles.
