Service was great, great collection. BUT the games I brought were not properly cleaned, I should have checked before I left. But the game I grabbed had so many scratches on the disc I'm surprised it even plays and the DS game I got had badly scratched chips, for a Pokemon game in case. I'll let you think of the price... wasn't cheap. I DEFINITELY don't recommend this shop sadly, Very bad first impression's. read more

Price. Location. Size. Selection. Lighting. Parking. Not the clerk's fault. Not worth the trip.

My name is Romeo and I myself own a video game store in Los Angeles, CA called LA Video Gamed and I must say as a collector and store owner, that this video game store is awesome. The location is small but humble, so going through the video game inventory will be a breeze. The inventory selection is great! You can find common games to rare games from retro to modern. The store associate was super nice and very attentive to my questions or video game needs which shows they have great customer service. During my visit I walked out with a bag full of good games and the prices weren't bad at all, in fact they were fair to great. You just got to show the employee respect and they will respect you back. Would highly recommend this store, my business to any gamer or video game collector. Thank you for everything King Video Games team!! Much love from LA Video Games!!! read more

Their selection, especially in the area, is unparalleled. I mean, they have some VERY rare items. The problem is that all the stock they have never moves out of the store because the price is unreasonably high. ANYTHING with the any rarity or notoriety AT ALL is at least 50% overpriced in my opinion. I understand they are a business and need to make profit, but they are trying to profit hand and fist over every other seller in this market. read more

Hidden gem of a spot within South Philly offering a variety of games from numerous consoles. It's very hard to find decent game stores within Philadelphia offering such a large variety as this location. The cashier is also very nice and was willing to hold onto the games for me to run out and go to an ATM. read more

Not a bad selection of games but very lazy worker! Hight prices & zero customer service! I came there with cash ready to spend but employee was to lazy to notice! Will not be going back! read more

Don't come here to trade in anything the chunky dude at the register will immediately try to take advantage of you. They don't have much of a selection and they charge a hefty price for anything with the slightest bit of rarity not worth buying anything but fun to look around Before being offered $20 for a complete console I guess. read more

Awesome awesome! This store def brought back the urge to collect old Nintendo systems and games. Fair selection but I'm just glad this place exists because I don't like to order online and wait a week to have the game in my hand. The prices can be a couple of dollars higher than online. Some days you'll get lucky here and other not so much but it's so great having all this old school gaming systems in one store. Also my boyfriend has found some cheap power tools here. This store has almost anything read more

This store has a good selection of classic Nintendo and Sega, and they're the only retro game store within Philadelphia to my knowledge, but their prices are astronomically high. For example, they have Mario Party 2 priced at $70 (compare at about $30 on eBay) and Sonic Triple Trouble priced at $20 (compare at about $7 on eBay). I understand charging a bit more at retail than eBay, but these prices are far outside of typical range. My hope is that the store will go through their inventory and re-price based on the going rates rather than an arbitrary high number. I want to shop here. read more

Didn't even realize we had stumbled upon the store until we hit the crossroads after it. They had an impressive Atari selection as well as snes. Not as many Sega as I am used to seeing. Prices were a little more than we're accustomed to. Big ups for having the Berenstain Bears game so I could prove it does actually exist to my game chasing companion. read more

Been collecting for a few years now and have accumulated a decent amount of dups that I figured I'd try to trade in and grab some other games only to be told that he can't trade games that aren't in the original cases and the ones that did have original cases were too "scratched up" which I can personally vouch for a few of them not being in the best condition but selling the same games not in the original cases that looked worse then the games I brought it and I didn't want confront him about it at all I was going to grab the few things I needed and be on my way which was a genesis AV adapter that he almost game me the wrong cord for until I corrected it and to add onto other peoples claim that his stuff is overpriced I can somewhat agree but only on the more popular titles pretty misinformed on the prices in his favor and not I've also seen duplicate games in his store all with different prices on the same games it could be a little more organized read more
