--Location/Parking-- Located off of 6th street. Near 3rd…read moreavenue. --Ambiance-- Great video game shop that is remanence of a Japanese book store. Everything is tightly packed and has a huge variety of selection. In the back corner there are some signed collectibles and a small case of highly valued video game history. --Service/Staff-- Staff was quick to help me in finding my selection. There are so much to look at in such a small space. They even talked about some of their suppliers which great to hear or not hear being a video game nerd myself. --Food/Products-- Walk to walk and every space is taken with video games. They have one of the largest PS Vita collection, PSP, new, used that I have ever seen. If you are looking for something. Chances are to look here first before trying to purchase it online --Capacity-- Since wall-to-wall video games. There can only be one person in each aisle since there is not enough room to walk past each other. I want to say. No more than 3-5 people can be in the store because of how tight it is. --Overall-- A great place to look for video games. Note some video games have been there for a while and might have some dust on them. I will swing by every time I am in NY.

As soon as I entered, the helpful staff explained where everything was located. Both people were…read morecool to interact with as I asked about certain games, where the new sealed games were located and where their loose games for each system were as well. The selection of Nintendo Switch games is unprecedented here! They have US games and foreign games that you'll never find at Target, Walmart or Best Buy. There aren't many retro gaming stores left in NYC, but this one has a few game options with good value. I visited another retro gaming store on the following day and their prices were too crazy high, even more than online. I returned here the next day to pickup some more games. This location helps you to sell and trade gaming gear too. Looking for that impossible Game Boy or GBA game? There's a high likelihood they have it here!

Retros - Our wall of SNES and N64 games. We've got plenty of boxed games too!

Nintendo, Sega, Sega CD, N64, PS234, Gameboy, PSP, oh my!!!…read more It was like walking into the gaming museum. This is where all the games go to be reborn and reintroduced to a new generation. As a gamer myself, I was completely elated and the little boy in me could not help but be in supreme awe of the store. Do I wish it was a little more organized yes (that's just me and my need to want things really neat) and according to the owner it was when he was in a bigger store a couple of miles away. Oh, had I known about him before and seen that store. I think I would've worked there part-time just to sift through all the games I've played and maybe replay them just for fun. See how far I can get through Mega Man X, Contra, TMNT and even the Power Ranges on SNES. Sorry, I had a that's so raven flashback moment. I'm back. Where was I? Oh yes, The variety of games, accessories, systems, cables. You name it, he's got it. Even if you don't see it, he'll know exactly where it is. The owner is super nice and lets you browse until you get tired. I am looking forward to going back to check out more games. I mostly get games to send to nephews overseas and they are already excited for what I'm sending. The prices may seem high, but honestly what you probably paid to have them when they first came out was double if not more so to me he is being fair especially for a small business.#SupportSmallBusiness #Gaming #ForeverTheCoolNerd See you soon and thank you for taking me down memory lane. It was so much fun!

Absolute horse manure. about to go to bed. but then i couldn't fall asleep thinking about this…read moredump. a few months ago a buddy and i went here to check it out. about a 40 minute drive from out area. needless to say, like the rest of the reviews state, we were HIGHLY disappointed. they even raised the prices on us at checkout. dishonest scumbags. (Btw he raised the price on a skylander from $30 to $80 dollars).

Digital Press Videogames - A vintage gamer's paradise!

I'd been to the Digital Press Videogames location in Clifton, which is awesome, and only discovered…read morethis location because my kid spotted it when we happened to drive past it. Vowing to return after our event, I brought two of my kids and one of their friends, and we all geeked out over the selection of vintage and used video games for practically every system released since the advent of the Atari 2600. The staff was super helpful in answering questions about legacy systems. There were plenty of amazing values on games from ColecoVision and original NES through the Xbox Series X and Nintendo Switch 2 and everything in between. The coin-operated arcade games and pinball machines, with a few free options, were also a blast. Digital Press is an absolute treasure.

I am always in favor of independent game stores still out there buying and selling preowned games…read moreand not affiliated with GameStop. This I believe is the second location of the two Digital Press Videogame shops, if you're a gamer, you feel at home walking in. There are games and accessories from nearly every generation so if you're a collector and want to lay eyes on what you're looking for as opposed to online, it's a necessity to come here. There are operation arcade machines here from 80's to 90's including a few pinball machines. The counter has employees who of course are gamers and what game store wouldn't be complete without regulars who hang around and talk about games as well. As I browsed around the store I was taken back through all the generations which was a good feeling, knowing that stores like this still exist. I could go on about why DPV is a great store, but I'll go over my experience on my latest visit. I went to unload a few games I had no use for anymore and could not sell them alternatively on C-list and the like so I came here. I got a better amount than I thought both cash and store credit (store credit of course being a bit more). Again, if you're a gamer or someone looking for games from yester-year and want to avoid online, try here.
