The Portal Comics and Gaming is not a shop I usually stop at when in the Lehigh Valley due to its…read morelocation being closer to Bethlehem, but for certain people this shop will be valuable. It shares the building with other business including a CVS, and parking is shared with their lots or on the street. This is a light comic book shop with limited selection, to the point if they dropped comics from there name, I don't think anyone would notice. Handful of wall books and mostly modern books in their short boxes. Graphic novel selection was better than average with several shelves. Portal primarily focuses on gaming, with them having a large board gaming selection. Other gaming items are located around the shop, including various Warhammer items and paint for gaming items. Gaming space is located in the back of the shop, in a separate room from the merchandise. Overall, if you are looking for gaming items, The Portal should meet your needs. I would do my comic shopping at other shops in the Lehigh Valley, however.

Was a customer for many years back when they first opened and was happy to support them in their…read moregrowing stages. They have been around for 20 years now, but they have really fallen since their prime years. What used to be a fun place with stocked shelves has turned into a skeleton of its former self. May empty shelves with little to no restock other than board games. Their D&D is almost nonexistent, their Warhammer barely there, and comics are laughable. They are always out of stock of MTG boxes so don't try unless you pre order. Seems like they only focus on selling on TCG. Even their webstore is empty, almost every item on their is listed as out of stock. Its actually depressing walking in there now. The employees are awkard and stare at you like you have three heads. I remember years ago there were 4 co-owners and there was always 1 or 2 of them there, I believe their names were Brian and Andy. They were always friendly and would often Join in for a game of MTG or Heroclix if no one else was around. There are now multiple shops around with better service and stock. I recommend skipping this store and trying one of the other Lehigh Valley Stores

Cloud City Games main location has made a big move from Emmaus to the Lehigh Valley Mall in…read moreWhitehall. Shop is located in the JCPenney wing on the second floor, in the former Disney store. Space is large with plenty of room for future growth. Cloud City has a limited selection of new pull comics, but has a large selection of graphic novels. Several bins of longbox comics are located in the center of the shop at various price points. Has some toys and collectables spread throughout the shop. They have a good selection of board gaming and other gaming items. I'm interested to see how this move works out for Cloud City. Lehigh Valley Mall is a good mall with lots of foot traffic. Biggest issue Cloud City has is they are also now in direct competition with the areas highest end comic shop, ComicMasters, which is located in the Whitehall Mall across the street. I'm not sure Cloud City has the product selection to compete. During previous visits at the old location, my friend has often done well in their comic bins, while I did better when they previously had more one-dollar longboxes.

They have a good selection of items, but they are so overpriced. They were higher than average…read morepriced when they were Emmaus, but since they moved into the mall they have added the ridiculous rent costs onto the consumer. I know prices went up across the board everywhere by 5-10% but theirs went up 20%. Your better off getting your stuff online like amazon or other online gaming stores. Couple Examples: Box of Edge of Eternity MTG at Cloud City $156 / on TCG $134. AMazon $132. D&D mini's Box at Cloud City $29.99 on Amazon $19.99 etc. Save your money and shop online.

JAF (Just Action Figures) Comics is located north of Bethlehem on the Nazareth Pike, in the Trolley…read moreStation Mall. The shop expanded in early 2021 into previously vacant space and now has a new external entrance. Essentially, they moved all the comics and toys into the new space, and converted the old space into a gaming area. This expansion led to the closing of JAF's second location at the Palmer Park Mall, which had quietly become a standout shop for its new pull selection and $1 book bins. The shop has a good selection of new comic books and graphic novels. They have a fair selection of wall books and collectables. Longbox selection wildly varies. While they do have many, the cheaper boxes are located on the floor, making them hard to comfortably access. I wasn't here for the selection of gaming items, so I can't comment on that part of JAF. Staff have been a strong part of JAF, generally being friendly and helpful. JAF for me is challenging to rate, as the "main" store has always been a little average compared to other local shops. It's worth a stop to browse if in the area but going out of the way to come here would be a question. Overall, JAF is a 3.5, but rounding it up to a 4.

So far we've been their three times, and each time my son found what he was searching for. The staff were all very friendly and helpful. I'm sure we will continue to visit often.

With that being said overall I think their prices were fair and I loved that they had lots of cheap cds and even cassettes in addition to books and movies! From what it appeared it was a family run business which is awesome. A little more organization probably could have helped the event but overall it was super awesome to be a part of! My favorite part of the entire store was the shop dog. Honestly melted my heart. Also bonus points for having an exterior entrance in the mall!

The Game Gallery has again moved, and this new location remains in downtown Easton, but is on…read moreCentre Square. Parking is on the street or in a local garage. As a video game store, is pretty impressive with a large stock and improved organization. A continuing issue remains that prices are not clearly marked on some items, but during this visit I found more items with prices than before. Rare items are kept behind the counter and one of the more interesting aspects of The Game Gallery is they get some odd items, so it's always worth a look. One of the big changes that occurred because of this move was the return of the arcade! The arcade is located in the back and is a mix of arcade cabinets, pinball machines, and Japanese style cabinets. This is also a quarter arcade, so no play card is needed. As of this review, the arcade however is a mess. During my visit, many of the arcade cabinets were not powered on or experiencing issues. If these machines were active, this would be one of the best arcades in the Lehigh Valley. Several of the pinball machines I attempted to play had issues, with others also not turned on. The Japanese style cabinets all appeared to be functional. The machines I did play, however, seemed to have difficulty levels set to high. The overall arcade was very disappointing despite so much potential. According to online reviews which staff have made comments on, due to electrical issues not all the machines can be turned on. You apparently can ask for the machines to be turned on, but this would require enough staffing, which this store has problems with. If there was signage in the store mentioning these electrical issues, I did not see it. If The Game Gallery had everything priced and the arcade fully working, it would be one the best video game stores and arcades in the Lehigh Valley. I can't see myself returning here again for some time, if at all, and I'm disappointed by my experience.
