Gameshop Downstairs — Attraction in San Jose

This has to be one of the best game stores in the Bay Area! At ground floor, you’ll see a bunch of anime figures, but they have a basement where it’s a game store where you can find literally gaming consoles from all generations: PSP, PS2, Wii, Wii U, Original Xbox, etc. They even sell new games too!

Not only they collect video game consoles but even very old iMacs as well as arcade machines. Literally this store has mostly products that you want! It’s like a museum here except that you can purchase any product here.

Just make sure you ask the employees here to check if they have the products you want. I asked an employee to see if they stocked Wii Remotes somewhere, and he said that it’s behind the counter. So make sure you ask haha

It’s not guaranteed that they have every product stored here. For instance, I tried looking for Timesplitters Future Perfect, but don’t have it. Also, most of the games I believe are cheaper since I looked...

A hidden gem for retro games! It's part of an electronics shop, which you enter first before going downstairs. They've got a huge selection and their prices are very competitive. The staff are all friendly, too. Not all of them are hobbyists but they can tell you all about their stock. The shelves are lined with everything from games to VHSs to toys to cards to gaming accessories. Their selection of console games is nearly 3x their handheld selection. It includes imports as well. Most of the notable Nintendo handheld games are by the front counter and are usually limited. Super high value items and collectibles are kept right by the entrance in tall cabinets. It's hard not to walk out with...

This store took me by surprise. I live an hour away but was in the area and decided to swing inside. This store is simply incredible. There are tons of aisles filled with figures, cards, import games, all sorts of retro games, and tons of vhs and crt TVs. The selection is top notch for every system and whether you collect games, figures, or cards I can guarantee they have stuff you’re looking for. The owner(s) are super nice and after mentioning it was my first time in there we chatted for a little bit. Very humble and nice people in there. I want this place to get the attention it deserves so definitely go check it out. Thanks for the good deal on Pokémon...
