Amazing little gem tucked into Wake Forest. If you are a gamer, know a gamer, or are in any way…read moreinvested in video games this is the spot for you. Every time I pop through I always leave with a handful of Xbox games for a cheap price tag. Absolutely recommend this spot. What makes it icing on the top is the fact it's a local, small business. No big corporation, no unfriendly staff, just a guy and an awesome spot. I've never had any problems with my games not working, but the way Jeremy runs his business, if I did I know things would get fixed promptly. I highly advise giving GamesturzRetail a chance! 5 Gaming Stars out of 5!

Our son loves the figurines, anime collectibles, video games and more. Their record collection is amazing and diverse. We have never had an issue with any of them. And Alec is always sure to remind us that if we do he will honor a refund anytime Alec and Adele and the whole crew have become friends who not only care for our family in pointing out things we may be interested in but also sharing successes and plans for the business. This shop is a bright light in town and a regular stop for us. If you haven't been make a trip and enjoy the nostalgia! Be sure to say hi to Alec!

Store is much cooler than the outside of it…read more Cool store that has throw back games and other items. They do have several games and gaming systems you can play in person. They do have some records and other items as well. I did pick up some pins/buttons up front to put on my work lanyard. Staff were friendly and very helpful. Didn't mind answering questions. If you're in that area of Wake Forest you should stop by.

I visited this place while I was in North Carolina for a concert, and I was pleasantly surprised…read more It was such a fun experience with a wide and rare variety of anime-related figurines and manga. Definitely an awesome spot to check out if you're ever in NC. The staff truly made the visit even better. You can tell they enjoy what they do, and their energy adds so much to the atmosphere. The store itself is also really pretty and stays clean, which makes browsing even more enjoyable.

TLDR: Excellent anime shop in Raleigh. Large selection of anime, manga, and k-pop…read more I was so excited to hear about Animazed opening in Raleigh. This shop offers a wide selection of anime merchandise, manga, k-pop, and snacks. The small, yet long shop is packed with items. Many of the items I have seen before at anime conventions and the prices are similar. Pricier than you can find online. However I like the benefit of purchasing these items at a local shop year round rather than online or at annual conventions. The store is fairly organized. They have a large amount of merchandise and organize it by anime and item type with a few mixed bins. Manga is in the middle, figurines and posters along the walls, candy in the front to the left, etc. Most of the items are price marked. Prices seemed to be missing from the pillows and blankets. Overall it is a unique shop filling a niche missing from Raleigh previously.

This is a peculiar little arcade. Its address is correct, but it's tucked into the corner of the…read morestrip mall without a big sign (their website has a section to point you how to find it). In order to kill time away from our parents, during a visit, my brother and I went here. We had a good time, although it wasn't quite what we expected. Most of the arcade machines are are somehow illicitly imported from Japan (They often say this machine must not be used outside of Japan). But they are mostly music or dancing games. They do have regular console games that you can use, so eventually we two spent like 3 hours playing Mario Kart on the store's Nintendo! It was fun!

I'm not sure what the tall black dude's name is that works there but his transparency and being as upfront and honest to me from the start was really nothing but excellent customer service.

You also have to fight and call each different magazine they make you sign up for to cancel those subscriptions as well. What a scam and a waste of time. It's insidious and greedy to leech money out of someone hoping they forgot what they signed up for after a free period. This location also did not disclose that their membership was not free. I definitely recommend you AVOID these stores.
