Boom Boom Games is fantastic. They are an absolute gem of a retro game and collectible store…read more Their inventory is my favorite part about them. They always have a lot of cool things in stock. They also have things you would have trouble finding elsewhere. You can visit them one week, and the next week they have more great stuff in. I haven't been a frequent customer at the other retro gaming stores in the area because it's always the same products. Boom Boom always has new and exciting things, so they're worth the frequent visits. They price things fairly, and their rewards program gives you opportunities to save money with points redemption. Every dollar counts! The staff are extremely knowledgeable and friendly. They constantly run events in store. The owner, Ben, runs an Easter Egg Hunt around Billerica with prizes. My children love it and look forward to it annually! Boom Boom just recently did a Christmas raffle, and for Thanksgiving they did a Turkey Shoot (nerf gun to an electronic target) to determine percentage off the purchase. They keep things fresh and give everyone a chance to get involved in the fun. It's obvious how much the Ben cares and is passionate about the store, and the customers who frequent it. They're also very active on socials to keep everyone informed on the latest updates. I've recently them doing unboxing videos. They have been interesting to watch to get a first look at what's coming in. I am a collector of all things retro gaming, and Boom Boom games is where most of my items come from. Not to mention they have clothing items, retro toys to make you feel nostalgic, and it's not my thing, but they have a substantial wrestling toy and item collection. They also get video games and consoles in pretty quickly. I've gone there on the day of releases before to get games ahead of the crowd. This hasn't been an issue for them. Me and my family will definitely be back there often, as each one of us finds things we love at Boom Boom.

The selection is the definition of "a little bit of this and a little of that" because he is most likely to have games for the mainstream systems but the amount might be limited the more rare and niche it is but that is not the fault of the store. The value is a little over normal market price but that is okay compared to many other stores I went to which were more expensive. BUT the big problem I have with this store is the hours. I know the owner is having some medical problems but I think that these hours are way too short! I recommend moving the hours from 3-6 if you want to get the most customers in my opinion because you can get student customers who come from school after 2:00 and workers who finish their 9-5 jobs. But in conclusion the store is great but the hours is its biggest flaw.

The staff is knowledgeable, but some are aloof on their phones at times. Great place for some old arcade machines but mostly catering to Japanese style arcade with DDR and other similar machines.

After a day of walking around, I knew I had to find a scarf or some type of net gator. We stopped in multiple shops along Newberry Street with no luck. I had not been in MUJI before and was so impressed with the layout, the organization, and the selection. We found the much needed net gator, which was priced fairly and so warm! While the store was crowded, the flow worked well and they had a number of people running the cash register so the line went really quick. Would definitely go back and visit again.
