Games World is a nice little store in Marion Shopping Center. Situated near the cinema, clothing…read moreshops and the giant Dick Smith Electronics store, Games World is easy to spot. With a great range of boardgames, books and electronics, you can pick up some really cool trivia quiz packs, mazes or one of the umpteen versions of Monopoly that exist, for that one person who is always hard to buy for. In terms of pricing, it can be quite varied. Sometimes, the deals are good and sometimes, they are outrageous. The staff are general quite helpful, however if you can't find what you are looking for, which has happened a few times, you may need to turn to online stores - which generally have a better range. Just a word of warning though, nano blocks may look cool but are so tiny and hard to put together. They have quite a few of these packs though and they do look awesome, so it is worth checking out the different monuments and structures that the staff have put together. Another word of warning, the store can be really, really full near christmas or on the weekend. It is a very tiny store with not overly modest aisles, meaning that the shopping experience comes with the "game" of being able to manoeuvre around trolleys and other customers. All in all, this place is great for people into board games, so if you are hard pressed for buying gifts, this place will surely have something.

In my opinion Games World is a toy store that caters well to a slightly older child demographic…read more As the name somewhat implies there is a great range of toys and puzzles within this premises, which are perfect when seeking gifts for that in between tween age group. Of course you could always just buy a video game and keep the kids happy, however Games World provides some alternative yet classic favourites. Expect to find games here with titles such as Smart Ass, Fact or Crap, Money Cafe and Kitchen Science. The games and puzzles here are creative and stimulating choices for a generation of youth who generally have everything. There are also some unique gifts here for younger children such as a cute line of toys from the Puppet Factory, however primarily I believe this store serves its purpose best for the older kids. Its convenient Marion Shopping Centre location is home to a fairly small store, however it makes the most of the space it has by squeezing loads of quality products within its confined space. The staff are also friendly, which is always a positive sign.

As far as video game stores go, Gametraders Marion is boss level. What really sets this place apart…read moreis the staff who expertly guard all your gaming needs and pop culture paraphernalia. This is not a den of snobbishly anti-social nerds who make you feel uncomfortable, these are friendly and helpful individuals, at least one of them is even a girl! Don't be fooled into thinking these cats are too cool to hold the keys to unlocking game knowledge though, they all know what it is you (and perhaps your child) are after. Not only that, they actually care about it too and are primed to consul you on your console. A desire to deliver superior service can sometimes slow them down a bit as they remain constantly focussed on whichever customer they're assisting and not the ever increasing line at the checkout. They won't let you walk out with the shabby display version of Mario's hat, they'll make you wait whilst they comb through their stock room to retrieve the hat of the redest red and the best embroidered M. At the time of purchase, if you're in a hurry, this may seem a tad annoying, but I bet they don't get many returns. Gametraders at Marion also host many nerd culture events throughout the year including cosplay comps, game showdowns in addition to their common awesome sales. The last time I went there it was apparently their fourth birthday celebrations and so there were many people there, and throughout the shopping centre, in full costume. Gametraders make not only the world of Warcraft or whichever realm you visit fun, they upload it to the real world too.

What a great little store. It has a wide range of PC and console games, but more recently has added…read morecomic books to it's range. It also stocks card games, and various gaming and movie memorabilia. If you're after this sort of thing, it's a must to check out if you're at Marion. The staff are courteous, and have a good knowledge of their products. Especially useful for me when I trying to choose a new gaming console for the kids. Definitely worth a look!
