Press Start Video Games is awesome!! I wish I came here first! I wanted to find any video game…read morestores selling retro video games. I'm visiting from Hawaii, and there are no stores like it besides thrift shops and buy/sell bookstores where you only hope someone donates or sells their games, which is very rare, and also hope they're not incredibly overpriced, which is often. I found Gamedeals and Press Start. I went to Gamedeals first, and it's in the same area as Press Start in New Westminster. I wish I can to Press Start first! It's a small store and messily organized because it's jam packed with everything retro. I was just interested in NES games. Their quantity isn't much, but their prices are a lot better than the other store. They also have more rare games, but they were still overpriced, just not as much. The person who helped me was very friendly and helpful. He's genuinely into this stuff and it clearly shows! I grabbed another load of NES games even though I said I wouldn't because I still had to carefully pack it away in my luggage. Next trip, I'll just bring an empty suitcase with bubble wrap! Overall, I wish there were more stores and people who sell retro games fairly and reasonably because the people buying are collectors too and look to just collect. Most people just price gouge like crazy just looking for the uninformed customers. I'm glad Press Start Video Games doesn't do that. All their games are guaranteed with a 14 day return policy (much better than 7 days at other stores). Just a great store! Reminded me of a video game store in Kaimuki I went to every Saturday when I was a kid. I regret not buying more NES games at that time!

I'm visiting from Hawaii, and there are ZERO stores selling retro video games besides the thrift shops and buy/sell bookstores where you only hope someone donates or sells their games, which is very rare, and hope they're not incredibly overpriced, which is often. Nintendo NES games is what I'm collecting at the moment. I had a pretty big collection when I was a kid, and recently felt like expanding it. Luckily, Vancouver has a couple of these stores, and Gamedeals Video Games has TONS of NES games!!! Getting to this store located in New Westminster from Downtown Vancouver was a journey, but worth it. Coming into this store brought back so many memories when I used to go to video game stores almost every week 20 years ago. It was pretty much the exact same thing! Not only was there video games, there were also toys, board games, and other awesome things. Everything was very organized by section and in alphabetical order. I spent a good hour here just browsing and selecting my games. For the NES games, they were only loose games or with the box. No dust sleeves or instruction booklets for the loose games for some reason. It was hard not to buy every game that I don't have, but I only bought the ones that were priced below market value and in good condition. In the end, I came out with 8 games. I definitely would've bought more if I stayed longer! But I need to safely bring them all home! I was looking for rare games, which they had a few, but way, way, overpriced. Overall, a nice, nostalgic experience. An excellent store with games and accessories for every game console since the Atari. The staff wasn't exactly the friendly, talkative, super nerdy bunch, but friendly enough. I felt I got a decent deal for my games. Definitely happy! Hopefully they all work cause returning them would be a little troublesome.

Reset Games is one of my go-to game stores in Bellingham. They have an amazing selection of games…read moreranging from the earliest Atari games to modern console titles. Also, they have many different consoles there, and at good prices too! Sometimes they will have rarer consoles in stock like the Atari Jaguar or the Virtual Boy. They also have great deals on consoles. The prices may seem higher than market for the consoles, but that is because if you buy a console, it comes with OEM cables and controllers included, not 3rd party junk. For example, I got a VG condition non-yellowed SNES for $90 with all the previously mentioned accessories included. The staff are happy to accept a return within 30 days of a purchase with a full refund, which is very nice if an item stops working after a few days. As for trade-ins or selling, Reset Games will not currently accept defective/broken items as they do not offer a repair service. If you want to sell broken/defective items, go to Cosmic Games, as they offer a good repair service. The only slight downside is that the game prices are sometimes a bit higher than competing stores in the area, but their massive selection of games makes up for that. In conclusion, Reset games is a great game store. I always love stopping by. It's a must-visit for gamers.

I have gone there MANY times and got faulty items. We got 3rd party n64 games that are spray…read morepainted green with dead batteries so you can't save which we brought back multiple times. Every copy was bad. Every console I have gotten from there was busted and not tested properly. Multiple PS2 slims with dying disk drives. So, I went to their sister store down south. [over a 3-hour drive] Their staff told me they tested the ps2 they had. We drove back home and within 5 min the 1st controller port was bad and making the controllers loose connection and power. (how can you miss this if it was properly tested?) Also, that ps2 couldn't read disks towards the end of the disk. We have sold them a console ourselves and watched how they test consoles. They turn it on, throw a disk in, and if the disk reads, they just shut it off. There is no performance testing done, or everything I have said above would have been caught. BEWARE OF CONSOLES YOU BUY FROM HERE. ASK TO DO YOUR OWN TESTING BEFORE HANDING THEM MONEY, AS THEY WILL NOT GIVE BACK A REFUND, ONLY STORE CREDIT! They lost a customer that goes in spending 500 to 800 bucks a visit today. Their staff (dude with blue hair) told me they don't normally return consoles until I told him I spoke to someone in a higher position about this already, then, he wanted me to fill him in on what I was told so he could follow their policy better. Seemed like he was trying to cut me off on returns until I notified him, but I knew better already. Cosmic Games not only sell everything that Reset Games has, but they also do repairs, and their employees don't try to lie to me. They have made 1000s off of me and counting. Any issues I have had, they fix without charge as far as consoles or handhelds that I have purchased goes. Cosmic Games IS THE SUPIRIOR STORE costs more but WAY MORE accommodating and professional.

For $10 you get approximately 7 minutes of a virtual reality experience. Most of it is video game-type stuff but there are a couple of roller coaster simulations and others as well. Pro tip: Ask about what's not in the book. And ask for age-appropriate experiences too, if you want advice - the nice guy working the booth had a good handle on what I might like and what I wouldn't, and I'm sure he could do the same for young kids as well. I've never done *any* VR before so this was a first. It definitely seemed like a glorified video game. The graphics are not FlyOver Canada quality (think somewhere between 1980s Nintendo Duck Hunt and Wreck It Ralph), but the water slide program I chose was really fun! Because I chose a shorter program, I got to choose another. I chose "Iceland" - which I don't recommend. It seemed like I was walking around sub-par graphics with no aim or any control over my "body." Next time I'll definitely do amusement park rides only! A fun way to pass the time (or at least to get away from screaming children in 7 minute increments!).

The place has some Cool Gaming Systems, Toys, Collectables, Games, Cards, Records, CDs ect…read more The prices were a bit up there, but nothing too outrageous. The guy working there should really UP his Customer Service Game. He should be more friendly and helpful and I'm sure he would get more sales. What I really didn't like was that the trading cards my husband looked through for close to an hour were all individually priced. When he was about to take them up to pay for them, he was informed that the prices on the cards were not the prices, and that he would have to "look them all up" Are you kidding me ? #1 If items are priced- that should be the price you pay. PERIOD #2 If this is your policy - have a sign or take the price tags off. This really pissed me off since there were literally hundreds of cards that had prices on them ! #3 Price the cards before they are put out on the floor & people look at them ! #4 Tell the person looking BEFORE they spend an hour wasting their time !! So, this guy was planning on raising prices as we were about to pay - I don't think that is fair business practices! My husband was planning on spending a few hundred dollars - but after this we left without buying anything. This place could be so much better if changes were put in place. Sadly we won't know if this will happen because we won't be coming back.

Downtown

MacLeod's Books is a used book store that has been around forever (50 years according to an article…read morea couple of years ago). The store is crammed with piles of books and it looks like a disorganized mess. I've always wondered how they have survived, but there are always people in the store whenever I have gone in, so business must be steady. I first started reading Stephen King over 30 years ago, and have been reading his books on and off for the last three decades. I have recently gotten back into regularly reading his books, and I have decided to read the books I had never read before (for example, I recently finished reading 'Salem's Lot and The Shining), as well as re-read the books I have read, some of which I have only read once, 25 to 30 years ago (such as The Green Mile and his collection, Different Seasons). One of the first few Stephen King books I read 30 years ago was The Bachman Books. For those of you who don't know, early on in his career, Stephen King published five novels under the pseudonym Richard Bachman: Rage (1977), The Long walk (1979), Roadwork (1981), The Running Man (1982), and Thinner (1984). After it was discovered that Richard Bachman was Stephen King, the first four novels were published as a collection in 1985 known as "The Bachman Books". Rage is about a high school shooting, and King has asked that it no longer be published. Therefore The Bachman Books has become a collector's item, and King fans are always on the lookout for a copy in a used bookstore. In November 2024, I came very close to getting a copy. There is a local bookstore that sells used and new books, and I went to their website to see what Stephen King books they had in stock. I was surprised to discover that they had a copy of The Bachman Books on sale for $11! I ordered it, but ten minutes later the store called saying that unfortunately they had just sold the book that morning, after having had it in stock for several years. So close. For months, every so often, I would pop into MacLeod's Books when I was passing by, hoping to find that elusive copy of The Bachman Books. Despite never finding it (but one can hope!), MacLeod's has one of the best Stephen King collections. Their stock is always changing from one week to the next, so even if I had just been in the previous week, it was worth stopping in again. Sometimes there wasn't anything I was interested in, and sometimes I would walk out with a book or two. I've purchased several Stephen King books from MacLeod's over the past few months. A couple of weeks ago, I was running errands after work and was debating whether or not to stop in, as I would have to go a few blocks out of my way and I had been in about a week and a half prior. But I thought to myself, "What if this is the day they finally have it, and I decide not to go?" After carefully examining the Stephen King stock to be sure I didn't miss anything, I looked at the small pile of assorted books near the Stephen King section, and under several books I spied a familiar red spine. I HAD FOUND IT! I picked up the book and the store owner came up to me and said, "Hold on, I haven't priced these yet, I am in the process of putting out this new stock." I said, "I really really want this...." And he said, "It's a collector's item." Concerned, I responded, "I know... I'll pay you... $50..." He said, "Hmmm.... well, it IS a collector's item.... I'll sell it to you for... $15." Yes, only $15! I couldn't believe it! The store owner knew how valuable this book was and knew I was willing to pay $50, but he only charged me $15 (as opposed to $5 to $10 that he normally charges for pocket books). I finally have a copy of The Bachman Books! [Yelp collections: Libraries and Bookstores]

He quickly went through my boxes of books, taking what he wanted, which was most of them, and paid me then and there. Pretty easy. When I told my son, who now lives in Britain, he said, 'well, they are the best secondhand store in the Vancouver area. I've been there many times.' My husband told me that when he was hunting for books on "The Raj' a few years ago, he was led right to them in the store. So all round, a winner, I'd say.
