I highly recommend stopping into this place for three reasons…read more One, you need a serotonin boost Two, you're a tourist and want something very New York and actually unique to the city that you won't really find anywhere else Three, you're a collector or thinking about getting into retro video games Video Games New York has been around forever and I really hope it stays that way for a long time. It honestly feels like one of the last spots in the city where you can walk in and see this huge, slightly chaotic collection of games and consoles all in one place. The Nintendo 64 section is probably my favorite part. They have so many different variations it's kind of nostalgic overload in the best way. And they've also started adding video game soundtrack vinyls which is really dope and fits the vibe perfectly. The staff is also super cool and really knowledgeable without being overbearing. Just don't go in only to browse. Try to grab something if you can, even if it's just one of the anime themed sodas or a small piece of merch. Places like this really feel like they deserve the support so they can stick around.

What a nostalgic place for videogame lovers. It's a tiny shop, but it's packed from top to bottom…read morewith vintage, rare, imported, and new games too. They also buy your used items for credit or cash. With the Knicks win, they had a video of KAT visiting here with all his nostalgic for videogames. The husband definitely found so much joy being here and the collection is quite a hidden gem. The people who work here are very knowledgeable.

An awesome store with retro vibes and a great selection of games, for all consoles. The star of the…read moreshow would be the vintage NES, SNES, N64, and PSX games, all with very fair prices comparable to what you'd find being sold by independent sellers online, but with the trust of coming from a store, with everything thoroughly cleaned and functioning its best (I've never had to blow on a cartridge I bought from here, and every game has worked on the first try turning on the system). This place's game selection for these systems includes the best of the best, along with the rarer and more esoteric titles, and the inventory moves pretty quickly so there's always something new every few weeks. The guy running the place, Adrian, is extremely kind and courteous - he is always willing to answer questions and provide info, but he's never pushing to sell anything and it feels like a no-pressure, comfortable environment for taking your time to browse. I'd totally recommend Brooklyn Video Games to anyone who appreciates physical stores for retro games and accessories - two thumbs up!

Pretty good retro game store to look at in Brooklyn NY, this store has an selection of very…read moreoverpriced games, not so many games ofc but funko pops a little bit but still pretty cool atmosphere of the inside of that place, just a small store who cares, the service is kinda ok, the cashier was a good person before he kinda left the store idk This is a good game store if you lived near that store.

Its a small shop but stockpiled around the place up to the ceiling with gaming systems and previously owned cartridges of an endless list of popular games. There are likely even some unpopular ones that are now cult favorites for some reason. I noticed PS2 and PS3 items, along with Nintendo, XBox and many more. Not only can you find the games but they also have a stockpile of the actual systems and controllers on display so if you broke something you might want to get over there. Price wise I'd have to say that they can be all over the place because they are not your conventional shop with a new stock coming in from a distributor every day. They seem focused on the used games and systems so the inventory varies and fluctuates. There are games that are more rare than some others and some items might be in a little less than perfect condition based on use and that is bound to be the case with places like this. Truth be told, I find its better to deal with a slightly higher figure for something you've been looking for forever rather than risking someone else snagging it up while you opine the decision. While they primarily focus on video games for most gaming systems, they do have a stockpile of Funko Pops, some action figures, and a couple of boxes of old comic books all available for assorted prices. Again its based on the stock and the rarity if anything. I did see a stock of hats and billfolds and those are completely new along with a few cork boards of shiny pins which are also new. If you have a gamer geek in your family they should be brought here because I think they'd find something they need or wanted to have for awhile. I've seen them take trades for store credit but outside of that I am not sure how they deal with the walk ins with piles of games, comics or toys. Recommended.

Awesome comics. Weeklies. Pull lists. Add any comic to your pull list and they'll get it for you…read more 15% discount on pull list comics. Amazing exclusives; the best in the business! They have some older slabbed keys, a small graphic novel section, selection of back issues, weekly incentive variants, some SideShow statues, an entire wall of Funko Pop! figures. This is not your average local comic shop. They have artists signings, you have to call and find out when. They have a partnership with Jonathan Uribe; Steve is a CGC SS liscenced witness for Jonathan Uribe so you can get the yellow label. As for their exclusives: They produce dozens of store exclusive variant covers from the most talented artists in the business like Jonathan Uribe. Some of their covers are on Covrprice.com. Their hottest exclusives are Pokémon covers called Pocket Monsters. You can buy their exclusives at comic conventions like NYCC Con and SDCC or on their website. They sell out fast! Jonathan Uribe draws many beautiful Spawn exclusives for them. Insane Gunslinger Uribe exclusive, metal has a print run of 10! And Absolute Batman exclusives! The owner Steve relaxed, cool and welcoming. Dan is also very friendly. Thanks my LCBS, Collector's Cave! In my life as I've moved I've had many LBCS. Collector's Cave is the best one I've ever had.

The store is stocked with pops and toys and things that you can't find in other places. What I love the most is you can look at there stuff and they don't tell you not to touch anything. If they don't have what you looking for they will order it for you and tell you the truth if they can get it or not, they will also tell let you know it may take some time for it to come in and once they get it they let you know I'm on there comic list for the new comics that come out every week so I know I'm going to get my comics I'm happy to support this small business and I recommend it to everyone that's looking for old games and new pops and comics
