Quite possibly the nicest people in the retro game business…read more Amazing selection of games, systems, accessories and trinkets. Everything is very reasonably priced and I love the selection. But the true X-Factor IMO is the staff and how well they treat their customers, I am not what some would call a regular but I have been shopping with them soft the last few years and I am always greeted with a smile and asked if I'm looking for anything specific, and if there is anything they can help find for me. Truly a genuine and welcoming experience! I am grate for them and their hard work, thanks everyone, see ya next time!

DEFINITELY come in if you are trying to quit smoking because a deal this good makes me think these games will sell out fast.

They have had the same audio sounds from game machines and retro videos playing for years though, that is due for a change, but the quickly turned inventory allows for a sense of gambling excitement whenever I come by to check for additions to my collection. You can even be added to an alert list if you're hunting for a specific cartridge or disc. Excellent service and above par return exchange policy as well. Definitely worth it to stop by!

So today I had zero plans on going to SideQuest games. I follow them on instagram and they had…read moreposted Pokemon cards for sale. They had multiple cards I was interested in so I get ready for my 40 min trek, head over there, walk in and see the cards I wanted ON DISPLAY with price tags and everything. So I tell them I'm interested in a few cards and I'm told "oh I need to look at all these cards again."...so I wait around for 15 min just to essentially be told nothing they went out of their way to post on their instagram was for sale.... So I dragged my one year old son on a 2 hr trek for literally nothing. Will not be returning to this store ever

A total goldmine of nostalgia and awesome games! They have SO MANY games and consoles, some I'd…read morenever even seen in person before (Haunting Ground and Rule of Rose are so elusive!!). Their pricing is fair, for such a collection of games that aren't being made anymore seeing a super rare game for 300$ isn't a surprise. They also have a ton of more inexpensive games and good finds. Their little collection of game merchandise inside their side room is one of my favorites! They seem to have new little things all the time over there. The staff has always been friendly without giving the feeling of them following us around, and I really appreciate that. Whenever I've come to them with a question they're always happy to try to find out the answer or point me in the right direction in town! I'm definitely a loyal customer there and will continue to be so!

I need to see the box. Look at the pictures on the back and really weigh my options. That's why I love this place. I can rent games for all systems. I can rent DVDs and blue rays. I can choose from a physical selection instead of virtual. They have it all and its close to home. Hello instant gratification. The real bonus isn't the selection and gratifaction. It's the prices and customer service. The employees will bend over backwards for the customers. Reserving games and movies to make the customer happy. The prices are so affordable. Rent a game for $4 for 3 days. And for a dollar a day after that you can re rent for two days. This place is amazing. I can only hope that it weathers and stands 20 years from now.
