Press Start Games and Videos — Local services in Jacksonville

Press Start is hands down the best hidden gem in central Illinois for gamers.

Shelves lined with classics, modern hits, and even rare finds you’d never expect to see outside of a collector’s game room. The store itself has this welcoming, nostalgic vibe, but what really makes it special is the owner.

Chad isn’t just a store's owner he’s a true gamer who knows his stuff inside and out. Whether you’re hunting down a retro cartridge, looking for a gift, or just want to chat about the new release, Chad takes the time to help you out with genuine enthusiasm. You can tell he cares about every single customer who walks through his door.

Press Start feel less like a store and more like part of the gaming community. The prices are good, the selection is awesome, and the atmosphere is great.

If you grew up playing video games or just want to support a local business that truly values it's customers, Press Start is the place! I can honestly say I’d rather shop here than at any other game store.

Press Start isn’t just a store it’s an experience every gamer...

Bought a system from them and within a 7 days it was not working the owner refused to give me a refund in store credit or anything and told me that it is a software issue that Xbox was to fix it so I call Xbox who inform me it is not a software issue but a hardware issue and told me it would be almost the price of a new system for them to fix it and the PRESS START should have returned my money or fixed this issue I will not be back and will tell everyone I know for how rude the owner was and the run around...
