They carry hardware and software for systems like NES, SNES, Sega, PlayStation, Xbox, Neo-Geo, and more, with a focus on retro and Japanese imports. If you're looking for old games and consoles this is the place. They didn't have grips for new consoles or anything like that but I see its value. It smelled like an old school video arcade in there. Core memory unlocked.

I paid a visit to the store last night. The owner was extremely friendly and welcoming. I have been…read moreto retro game stores with really unfriendly staff. This was such a breath of fresh air. He has a pretty great selection. He has a bunch of imports and a lot of different games from multiple systems. He had some bangers like popful mail and CIB Zelda N64. Everything is priced and put in a clear plastic bag. Stickers aren't placed on the game itself. Unlike some bigger stores, the prices are good. I rarely write reviews but I enjoyed my experience so much that I had to write one. 100% I will visit them again.

I went in looking for PS3 controllers one of the days I went, in store was cool and I loved the…read moresetup but area is kinda sketchy first time going, $45 for an original ps3 controller and 25 for a 3rd party controller the white one was the first one they sold me which where L1 is located it was already broken and not something I've done and I went back in two days later to get a replacement for the faulty controller it even had connection issues. The second time I came in the store opens at 10Am and I was sitting in the parking lot at 10:44 and a few minutes later they arrive at 10:47 to finally get to the store as I sat in my car waiting to exchange controllers and after I go in I tell the guy about the controller he tells me that he can't warranty the white controller because it's broken and they don't sell broken controllers but I tell him I didn't break it it was sold to me like that then tells me he's going to check the cameras to see. I had a receipt texted to my number he offers to refund but I wanted a different controller to be given he gives me the black one with dirt and no offer to clean it what so ever and no testing the controllers they're selling I get home to load up a game I chose saints row 3 and my character starts walking by himself which is obviously stick drift so that's two faulty controllers I wouldn't recommend honestly but that's my experience at forever games.

This place is nothing short of amazing! Movies, music and games of any console you can think of!!…read moreThe employees are all very helpful and friendly, all while being as fun as they are knowledgeable about the gaming systems. You can buy a soda from the fridge and play some vintage games right there in the store... nostalgia at its finest! The kicker... the affordability is unmatched from other stores I've visited. The prices are very fair, and you can also sell them your own movies, games and music! Great people, excellent variety and just an overall good feeling that a small business SHOULD give you! I will definitely be going back to this hidden gem!

It was close to the time to close the doors and the manager came out and kicked everyone out of the store and would not let me complete the transaction. When I asked him to just let me finish, he argued with me for longer than it would have taken to ring out the sale. I get that it was a stressful time and I have worked retail before, but this is no way to treat customers that willing to drop a great deal of cash on a system, games, and reupping their Gamestop Pro membership. Do not give this store or their manager any of your cash, you are not valued as a customer here.

The vibe is the place is pretty nice and the people that shop and work there are always fun to talk to. The value of the cards go off TCG which is fair.

This place has an impressive collection of harder to find older stuff but you are essentially there…read moreto look because everything is at least 20% more expensive than the going price. Also half the store is just amibos. You can tell the sort of ownership you're dealing with when you walk in the store and notice they don't have air conditioning on in the summer. I feel bad for the staff (who are great). A LOT of the games also do not have prices on them which feels shady. If you really NEED a certain game, chances are they might have it but you will pay more than what is fair in all cases. There are better used games stores in Columbus that prioritize value and experience, give them your business instead.
