Fantastic store run by pleasant folks!
My kiddos LOVE going here–and why wouldn't they! They always leave with stickers, candy, and/or delightful anime character goods. They just got those popular Lububu things in stock, and their prices are the most reasonable I've found in the whole South Bay area.
As for their retro games, they're great. Good selection + fair prices. You don't often get both in a retro game store these days.
I saw a complaint about "stickers being on the cart" but I've never had an issue with this. First off, they're quite easy to remove, and second, they're typically on the body of the cartridge rather than on the label. It's also worth noting that many of their collectible games don't have stickers on them and they will instead be priced at the register–common practice given how wildly prices fluctuate these days.
The fact that they're closed Tuesdays and Wednesdays has never really bothered me. It's a small family operation, and I don't really need to blow a ton of money on my retro game habit more than once a week :P
If you care about geek culture and specifically about retro games, this is the exact kind of mom and pop store you should be supporting. When [major corporation] doubled down on retro during the pandemic, what did they end up giving us? Generic boxes. Ridiculous prices (well above charting). And the most inconsistent availability you could imagine. If you don't support stores like these, that's all we're gonna have in...
Read moreI’ve been coming to this retro video game store for the past three years, and not once have they ripped me off or sold me a defective product. They always clean and test everything before putting it on the shelf, and it really shows in the quality of what they sell. Every time I walk in, there’s always something new, whether it’s rare finds, uncommon gems, or just solid classics at fair prices. They never overcharge or try to upsell you with ridiculous markups. Plus, they let you inspect and test out the games or consoles before you buy them. You’re not just handed something sealed and told, “Good luck.” They truly care about their customers and it keeps me coming back. Easily one of my favorite spots for retro hunting. And let me tell you, if there’s a specific game or item you’re looking for, just ask them. They’ll go out of their way to find it and get it in stock for you. I’ve seen it happen, and they’ve done it for me. That kind of service keeps me coming back.
What really sets this place apart, though, is the vibe. I’ve hung out and talked with the owners until closing, and sometimes even an hour or two after closing. That’s how cool and genuine they are. I honestly consider them close friends at this point.
They even host awesome gatherings with multiple vendors and a ton of cool stuff to check out. If you’ve never been to one, you seriously gotta go at least once. It’s a blast every time.
This store isn’t just a shop, it’s a...
Read moreSteven is a great guy with a genuine love for everything gaming. He has an awesome selection of vintage consoles, games and peripherals. All of which he meticulously overhauls to ensure proper function and overall cleanliness inside and out. He also carries modern games, artwork and figurines.
I purchased a Nintendo Wii from someone off of marketplace without testing (mistake) and none of the included games worked. Brought it to Stuff 4 geeks and Steven was kind enough to test the console and games as well as repair any scratched disc I had. Steven set me up with a working console and everything else I needed to get going.
Very personable with reasonable pricing. Can't go wrong with this "mom and pop" shop for all your retro gaming needs. I will be back to support this local gem of a...
