    $20 Pokemon blue & $55 gba sp 101 model
    Elizabeth S.

    I'm pretty sure they moved to a larger location since their first store is tiny to what they had inside. I came here to look for pokemon games for my ds but they didn't have any in stock and then I saw that they had some gba sp for sale. I bought a gba sp 101 model for $55 and bought a $20 Pokemon blue along with it. The guy was pretty nice and knowledgeable and was willing to answer any questions I had. The guy also does mods for consoles as well. Tiny parking and they take card.

    Armando is the best I love coming to this place. Always good service and great selection of old school games. Nintendo, Sega, XBOX, PlayStation and even Atari and Famicon. You can't go wrong coming here if you want a specific game I'm pretty sure he will have it. And pixel Vault buys and or trades games also. How cool is that if you have old stuff you don't use anymore you can bring it in sell it to the store for CASH or credit. Every couple of months they have a sidewalk sale with even more stuff with food and sometimes bands play. There is plenty of parking and located on holt blvd between Euclid and Mountain Ave. Good stuff

    Huh huh, hey Beavis, this place doesn't suck. Heh heh, yeah, this place rocks!

    The adventure drags on as I further my search for a good videogame store in southern California. Today's trip takes me to the hot and very far destination of Ontario, CA in a place called Pixel Vault. Once you go inside (and move past the confusing Western Union stand), you'll be treated to a cornucopia of Retro merchandise. My god, how long has it been since I've seen so many original Super Nintendo boxes? Far too long for me. Here's a few Pros and Cons: PROS --SERVICE. I swear, if all Gamestop stores had helpful and knowledgeable guys like Armando helping you out, all these smaller mom-and-pop stores would be out of business. Armando can answer all your questions and give you lots of helpful tips for maintaining your retro systems. Plus he can fix those retro systems as well, which is definitely a plus! --COLLECTIBLES. As I mentioned in the intro, Armando has a LOT of original retro systems with their original boxes. Everything from the NES to SNES to Genesis can be found in their original cases! Plus this is the only place I've seen that has a used NEO-GEO CD console (the cheaper one not the $1000 version). Definitely a nostalgic rush to the head. --PRICE. A lot of the retro systems and games sold here are fairly priced. Armando was nice enough to knock off an extra five dollars from my purchase of SNES titles. Maybe because the titles aren't that popular or maybe because the cartridge didn't look too clean, but I'm not one to complain on a price drop. CONS --LOCATION. Ontario is NOT an ideal place to visit even on the weekend. There is ALWAYS traffic on the 10 Freeway leading up to here and it just makes your trip unnecessarily longer than it has to be. That's not the store's fault, but just be sure to carve out a lot of driving time if you decide to visit here. --SELECTION. They have a nice batch titles for all the retro and last-gen systems but not all titles are always in stock. They do have a few hard-to-find games but it can all depend on what day you walk in. In my case, they didn't have very many selections for SNES but I did find some nifty games. If anything, I'm not going to find a clean copy of Grandia 2 for the Dreamcast here anytime soon. --SIZE. The store is basically the size of a living room. Once you walk in, don't expect to see rows and rows of games (which is what I was sorta expecting since the place takes up two storefronts). Before deciding to visit Armando and his store, I highly suggest given them a call and asking if they have stock of a certain console/game. Trust me, it'll save you the extra hour of driving and then being disappointed that they don't have what you're looking for. That being said, Armando is a cool dude and he will take care of your Retro needs. Highly recommended!

    See all

    Knowingly sells reproduction boxes and then their return policy is no cash refunds, store credit only. What kind of place is this?

    In addition to fair prices (often below retail), Armando is a beast when it comes to fixing broken consoles.
