Gameshack — Local services in Jacksonville

Hi there! I don't normally review, but I must say something! The owner is AMAZING! I've talked to him a few times, and he's always knowledgeable about retro gaming stuff. I'm a newer collector of Nintendo stuff, and he has a never-ending mountain of knowledge on all of it.

He also has really fair prices compared to other stores around, and he will give you a fair price if you sell anything to him.

I'm always excited to go see him and I've decided he's the only person I'll buy from in this town. If I'm looking for something, I go see him first before searching ebay.

So far, I've bought an SNES and NES from him, and he allowed me to personally test all the stuff I buy from him. He let me test Star Fox by playing the first level on his TV. He also makes sure you get true and authentic retro merchandise. He gives you actual NES and SNES controllers, and he won't sell anything that isn't authentic.

He also sells some retro game equipment from a 3rd party company, and those products are really good as well, I'll be giving them a review if I can find their website online.

Another thing he sells is merchandise, some comic book collectibles, knives, and Legos. I don't know much about that stuff, though.

Go in and strike up a conversation with him. He's super friendly. I wish him good business and hope everyone who reads this will give him a visit. I'll be visiting him more often once I get my car fixed.

Happy...

A legit hidden gem. Gameshack is absolutely the best retro game store in town.

Here's the deal- massive and massively impressive selection of games. Stuff I haven't seen in years. Super friendly owner/operator who knows what's what and will give a fair deal and great conversation. It's clear this man loves what he does and that makes all the difference.

The prices are fair - buying, selling or trading, not something that can be said for every retro retailer.

I guarantee, if you're into retro games you are almost certain to find something...

This store and it's owner are great! I bought Gears of War Judgment and 4 while also in search for Transformers War for Cybertron and Fall of Cybertron. The personal at the store was able to help me find a copy of War for Cybertron for the ps3 at another store that he had contact with. They're also great to talk to and the store has a lot of things for all to find. 10/10 would recommend this store for those looking for old and new games alike, and for a...
