Retro Dimension — Local services in Wheeling Township

We arrived at 12:15 and the store was closed, I called the phone number and got a voice mail. I didn’t leave a message and thought maybe the owner was running late, so my son and I would take a drive through the old neighborhood to kill time and swing back. Half way to the old neighborhood the owner returned my call and we spoke briefly but he assured me he was now at the store. That’s something a lot of places don’t do and it really meant a lot to me.

When we got there the owner was friendly and knowledgeable, he helped recommend some games to my son who is just getting into older games and systems (trust me, the guy that’s working at a video game store has more credit in that department then dear, old dad). My son and I both had a bit of overload from all the cool stuff they had available. Selection was good and prices were on par with both other stores and auction sites. My son and I will definitely be returning to this location...

Need a location to drive to so your teen will actually feel motivated to get their drive time in? Look no further than this nerd haven.

This place is where the spirit of GS went to live again. We drove about 35 mins just to check the store out and we were not disappointed. Games for pretty much every console, region free options, pristine-looking collector's editions that some of us would trade family members for (not me C..C) but seriously.

Not to mention, it was busy with people genuinely interested in buying things, which soothed the gamer in me like nothing else.

THANK YOU...

Retro Dimensions is an absolute gem! The store has an incredible selection of retro games, consoles, collectibles, and memorabilia — everything is organized and in great condition. The staff is knowledgeable, friendly, and genuinely passionate about what they do. They took the time to answer my questions and even made great recommendations based on what I was looking for. The nostalgic atmosphere makes you feel like you’ve stepped back in time. Prices are fair, and you can tell they really care about their customers. I’ll definitely be coming back...
