I've gotten some NES and Super Famicom cartridges and they've worked fine. They also have a good return policy incase the game doesn't work. They got some tables and chairs and I heard they play MTG here too. Theres also a sitting area in the front with a bunch of consoles, maybe to test? They also have some cool arcade games that play the very nostalgic 8-bit sounds. If the place is closed when you get there when yelp says it's open, just call them. This is usually manned by 1 person and they might be out for lunch.

Out of sheer laziness I am leaving the same review from Google. Tony and Anna are the real deal:…read morethey care about the community and it's a pleasure to browse and shop from their store. No PE money, or bloated demanding investors. Just two people running a genuine small business and trying to share their passion with others. It's a bit amazing a place like this exists in the high cost - SF Bay Area. A slice of old timey small business America with passionate owners doing the right thing for the gaming community. I found Tony's due to a personal need on behalf of a dear friend of mine. Great people, fair pricing and always glad to browse their inventory.

I was greeted as I walked in and asked how I could be assisted. Usually, when this customary…read moregreeting and query is conveyed, the forced inflection is obvious, leaving one to wonder why, if unhappy with their employ, they remain in it; this however, was not the case with Brandon, who, I sensed, really enjoyed meeting people irrespective of common interests and showcasing his considerable knowledge and understanding of the patterns in pricing and the driving mechanism behind the sales value of sports cards. I went there to sell some baseball cards and walked out of there edified -- I got schooled instead. But I could not be happier about it, for the process by which I, and apparently many others, gage the value of our cards, coins or what have you, is faulty and can lead to frustration and disappointment because you believe that, unlike others with the same items, you are not getting the supposed value of your precious items. Not only did Brandon take the time to explain the process by which we dupe ourselves into thinking we have that special card and will amass quite the premium for it, but demonstrated the process for me in real time. What he showed me was precisely what I did, and was doing, in assessing the worth of my saleable items. I walked out of his pretty snappy business educated and less frustrated. It made sense, and I can now approach my vocation with a different methodology in assessing the value and expected sale price of my coveted coins, ect. I am grateful for Brandon and his store, for at 60 years old, I got schooled. The store itself was stocked with the kind of things gamers fantasize about, and while there, the customers kept coming. This business is obviously doing things the correct way and the store's popularity is testimonial of that. For my part, I always lean toward doing business with the genuine proprietor, even if it means going out of my way a bit to give them my business. I recommend this store for the products available as well as for the pleasant people there operating it. There is parking along the street and room for several cars without having to walk a distance.

When we called…read moreto inquire about their inventory they took the time to go over everything they had that we were looking for while telling us the quality and price over phone. We had a 2 hour drive to their store and they put everything we needed on hold which was super helpful! Upon arrival their store was welcoming and FILLED with so much retro games and consoles, exactly the vibe we were looking for. The staff was super knowledgeable about all their products and the topic of retro games in general. We were able to pick up a great condition console and we even picked up an additional game that we were excited to find! We will definitely be returning for future purchases and recommend them to anybody looking to build their collection.

Can't recommend this place enough. Just ask any local gamer, they'll tell you the same. A must see if you are visiting from out of town.

The interior aesthetic completely reminds me of visiting game shops in Japan. They have vintage games, consoles, and collectables from all sorts of eras (Vectrex, anyone?). Things I've seen in the shop: - VHS tapes / Laserdiscs from popular anime and western films at the time - Lots of old Macintosh / Apple II computers - PC games from the 80s and 90s - 70s-2000s era consoles and video games, this also includes Japanese variants as well and also arcade boards such as the Neo Geo MVS - Pokemon and Yu-gi-oh cards - Lots of collectors editions of consoles and video games Staff is really friendly and extremely helpful, and it's clear that they have a passion for this stuff as well!

The kiddie corner has a seated area for families/children to spend a little time looking through the books before you purchase. There's also regular author readings/signings and poetry recital events during certain early afternoon or evenings at the bookstore, which is posted on a section of their wall, facing out from their left window display.
