Do any stores near you sell classic games?

I can think of four or five places that sell classic games near me.

What about you?

There's not even a game store in my town.

Yes.

It's a 5 minute bike ride from my house.
It's called "Entertainment Overload."

I bought a working playstation there for only 10$. :)

Not that I know of...

Instead we get 3 GameStops on one street. :|

I've seen NES, SNES, and Gameboy games at the GameCrazy here where I live.

Gamestop keeps buying them out. A new store is opening in my dad's town, but I dunno what they'll sell yet.

Yeah I can think of several. One called trading zone sells some crazy rare SNES games in their original packaging.

Amazon, since GameStop stopped selling Dreamcast games.

Not that I know of, and Gamestop is the only gaming store in town.

I used to go to Rhino, but guess who bought them out? Because of that, I have nowhere. There's maybe one place, and I think it just sells modern games. But it sells imports as well. But I have to take a bus to get to it. :(

Rhino was one of them, Funcoland was another. Guh.

this.

there's movie stores that rent games, but our last video game rental store (Microplay) went out of business... at least 5 years ago, probably more like 7.

around here, we buy our games at Superstore, because thats the only place to do so. yeah, there are pawn shops, they sell old games, but like... 80 bucks for the classics, 50 for everything else. complete rip.

We used to have a Game Crazy that sold Famicon, Dreamcast, and Gameboy games.

Doodle · August 09, 2008, 10:10:11 AM

We used to have a Funcoland that sold some old games. But Gamestop is there now. Plus another Gamestop down the road. :|

The closest place near me that sells classic games is like an hour and a half away. It's like a big garage sale where people set up places to sell things, and there's a place that sells a lot of classic stuff.
