One of the best shops for purchasing high-quality Used and sealed DS and 3DS games in excellent condition. They also offer a great variety of accessories, including chargers and cases. I highly recommend this shop?definitely a 10/10 experience!
This place is awesome! They've got tons of games for every system, and I loved what I got. You should totally check it out! ??
I discovered this store through Google, and I was eager to visit it immediately. The store had a nostalgic atmosphere and offered a wide variety of items. I had the opportunity to trade in some games and received a great deal of in-store credit. I highly recommend anyone to visit this store and experience it for themselves! ??
Best Game Selling experience ever!!! I picked up maybe 40 games in one go. These guys run a tight shop book by appointment, I had plenty of time to browse, test games and watch gameplay. If you want that game you've been seeking, I suggest these guys. I drove an hour to get this great haul!
This store is amazing! They have so much! They take trade-ins for store credit or cash, and the staff is very knowledgeable. The location had me a tad confused, but these guys and their business is completely legit and it is a fun place to look around. Their inventory far exceeds Game Stop. They carry rarities that you're not gonna easily find elsewhere.
Came out and was very impressed by this store. Found what I needed at a very reasonable price. Definitely recommend.
Seemed great the first few months of buying in-store games besides a few that had blockbuster boxes etc., but then made the mistake of ordering items for pick up from them for birthday gifts. Items never came in, such as a ps2 and a few titles, then they were unreachable and never got back to us about the pick up orders. Disappointing. The store is in an apartment, so not sure about the authenticity and licensing after speaking to other local 3rd party game shops, who by the way, ended up having better pric
Oh my gosh as soon as I found this store online I was so excited to go check out their collection of retro games. Matt was extremely helpful and nice they really know their stuff there!! I can't wait to go back and grab more games for me and my kids ?? They do trade-ins and can basically order anything you'd like. They respond immediately and accommodate you for appointments or special times. My new favorite place to buy games!
It was kinda weird finding the place, it's like an old motel they converted into businesses, the store is cool though and I got a couple good records for a good price, piss before you get here, because Matt's dog is in the restroom and will trip out if you bug him.
This place is great vibe and experience! I came and ended up buying way more than I expected with all the nostalgic pieces and games and cards they have for sale! Will definitely recommend this place to my friends and family!
Video games, consoles, retro gaming, Matt was super helpful with everything. Matt has so much video game knowledge and has a lot of inventory, if he doesn't have a game he'll get it. The best video game seller in the area by far. Another successful visit , Matt helped out a lot thank you.
Great experience. The place has good service, a number of selections of games, and consoles to choose from. The only thing i dont like is just the location, but that's just a nitpick. Other than that, i totally recommend going here. I got myself an Xbox and some few games
Really cool and unique store! The owner is really nice and helpful and has a huge selection and reasonably priced games and collectibles.
Awesome store! Came here with my son and Matt gave us a great deal and was very nice. We will definitely come back!
Great place to find ps games and more! Thanks again Mattew
I came here with a friend looking for video games, and to my surprise there was also a wide range of movies and films. There are DVDs, Blue Ray, and VHS tapes. I am a physical media guy so this was exciting to see. The staff were very friendly and engaging with me, and I am not a very social person. They were very reasonable with pricing and went the extra mile in service. They let me know that they can look for and order the tapes that I needed. I will definitely be coming back.
I've visited vgs once before and at first i didn't know any prior details but they turned out to be a start up company. Well recently as of today 07.11.24 i visited the ol seller and he took care of my needs and really understands what it means to be a gamer. So if you're wondering whether or not you should buy from them i would say YES! Genuinely speaking i haven't met anyone quite as in sync with old school or even gaming in general along with a kind spirited view on the business. VGS!
They have good games and TCG, great for starting collection or CIBs. Friendly and affordable
Called tons of game stores trying to find Kirby robobot for my younger brother nobody had it but Matt !! Definitely one of my new favorite game stores will definitely be back . They have a huge selection from games to vhs, great blast through the past
Great prices, very knowledgeable and friendly. This place is APPOINTMENT ONLY which means every time you arrive, you know you're getting a personal experience. Inventory is amazing and they had almost everything I needed. I would definitely recommend this place for any video game (current and retro), comic book, consoles, and memorabilia needs!
Matthew gave me an amazing deal for an original Xbox, controller and Simpsons road rage. Very great customer service and has amazing inventory and prices. Let me test everything in his office to show functionality of everything. Definitely recommend checking out what he has if you are looking for gaming items!!
Great hours of business for gamers who like to wake up early . Great Spot For Retro Gaming, Wide Selection and The Owner Is Very Professional And Helpful . Halo 3 Was The Last Game On My List And Happy I found CIB For A Great Price .
Video Game Seller official is the place to go for your vintage gaming needs. He runs a very organized and well stocked office. I was impressed the amount of variety he had. It was nostalgic seeing titles I grew up playing 20 years ago in great condition. I came in to buy Pokemon Blue version but ended up trading for my old PS3 and games he also let me take Super Mario Deluxe. Would recommend to anyone
Matt took great care of us. I personally recommend. very informative came in at 1 am and took us in to help us find every thing we needed
Matt is friendly and has great customer service. I got some games for my son at a great price! I love supporting great people who run a good business! ?? thank you!
Great experience Matthew was very friendly and knowledgeable we will definitely come back whenever we're in town.
Had alot of awesome old time goodies, anything from Ps2 to Ds games they had it all!
This place has a lot of cool, retro video games and consoles! They have attachments and controls for all kinds of consoles and Matt is a really cool guy! He's knowledgeable and hooked me up! I will be coming back for more to add to my collection!
Great price and nice discount. Came from Fresno and left happy. Matt was super friendly and accommodating
Huge selection, great atmosphere, and great service. The location is cool and unique too, very welcoming. Now I'm bringing MASTER CHIEF home ??
First time here with my daughter and brother and I gotta say they had what I was looking for. Good games, really friendly and helpful. Mostly going again with my wife to buy more games . Good prices also. Really chill spot..
Hard to find and you definitely do nit want to be in this neighborhood after dark. For me it was way too "creepy" for me to stop. Looks like an old motel that went out of business. Not safe in my opinion.
110% recommended. Mint condition and affordable games and etc.
amazing place great deals and loads of video games comics and figures i picked up a NES for a great price i will most definitely come back and pick up more items and great costumer service!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Very friendly, organized, fantastic customer service, would definitely recommend to others. We will be coming back for his business
Very good customer service. I came in with a broken console and was able to trade in for new system. They also taught me about some marketing skills that I never knew existed.
such a dope store crazy nostalgic, has everything you are looking for definitely worth checking out!
Great experience. Matt is super chill and has a lot of games like a lot. Also if he doesn't have it in shop he will find it for u and is pretty fast about it.
Definitely recommend!!! Came from AZ and they treat us right! Huge selection and wonderful customer service.
Wonderful gem I never would've thought to encounter!!!!
To be honest I was a bit unsure about visiting here as I was confused on how visiting this place was but it turned out to be one amazing place to stop by for great retro games. The gentlemen that work here are super kind and helpful. I was bored one night and was looking up reto games around me and this one popped up. Even though it was late in the evening they let me stop by and shop. They have a ton of cool games and collector pieces and like I said, the gentlemen were super kind and very helpful. I hope
Listen. I'm not mad at the store. It's probably great. I've never been. I'm just slightly frustrated that it keeps showing up in my OfferUp feed. They just made way too many listings to advertise their business and I am going to respectfully ask if they can for the future post just a little bit less. I live halfway across the country and I originally left a one star review which isn't fair to the owner. I'm sorry about that. You probably run a great store.
The best place to get used and new games around Montclair 100 % recommended
Sold some games today, and I got a great deal. Matt was super helpful and very nice. Definitely recommend people to come here. They also have a big selection of old school games and consoles. Will be coming here again soon.
Great place! They have a lot of variety if you want to bring back memories! Also the staff is very helpful and polite.
Great variety, super friendly. Great service overall! Love that they're available everyday with appointment.
Found them on Facebook marketplace and so glad I came in. Such a great selection here and very good prices. 10/10 recommend
They have a great selection and a lot of things that other places don't. Staff was really chill and the entire shop was great overall.
Really cool dude and has a lot of variety of games cool place and gives really good and fair prices
Man! I don't know where to start, this place is beyond AMAZING! I feel right at home, and welcomed. The owners of this store are so friendly, that I never want to leave. I had an issue with something, and without a second they solved it with zero set backs. If you want to go to a place and not be pressured or over charged, this is the place to go. I 100% recommend to anyone! If you are searching for anything, ask these guys first! If they don't have it, they will order it for you BRAND new at most times. Ag
10/10 recommend coming here ?? Matt has a variety of games, has reasonable prices or can work with you, and also really nice.
If you are looking for the best retro and video game store in the inland empire, this place is it! Matt is very fair with prices and will even give you the best prices if you are selling your games that you won't get doing physical trade-ins anywhere else. On top of that, he is super friendly, the place is really nice and comfy, and it has almost every single game you might just be looking for. There's even a really cool comic on display that dates back to the 70s! I am really glad I took the time to drive
Everything that I could think of in video games they had. Great selection and very helpful.
Matt the seller is an awesome human being! He made shopping at his store seem like a breeze! Totally satisfied with the gaming console that I got! I will recommend this store a thousand times every time! Amazing experience
100% recommend coming here, Matt is really helpful & kind. I came after work around 10pm, he's always available so it really helps on my end also.
10/10 would recommend, very helpful and friendly staff. Amazing selection of retro games from older gen consoles. If you are a collector this is the place to go and fulfill your collection needs. Willing to locate items that you are searching for if they currently don't have it in store, even shows you how much it would be
Matthew was awesome! Has great variety of games. He had a game I had a lot of trouble finding for my son?s birthday. A lot of vintage games and repairs going on in his store. Pleasant transaction. Definitely doing more business in the future.
The Store was absolutely amazing mat is a great guy who knows plenty about what he has and is extremely helpful i will be coming back !
I haven't had a chance to play my Xbox console yet because I ran out of batteries, but repairs were handled smoothly, and pretty quickly too. Also Matt is very friendly. Very cool game store and useful resource for any retro gamers in the area.
First time coming in and all I can say is WOW this place is AMAZING! The selection here is crazy. Definitely gonna become a regular.
Great staff, great vibes! Matthew and his associates were very respectful and very knowledgeable and the supply of retro games is amazing. I'll be back especially for that PAC man machine!
Really great customer service! The store also had a really good selection of games and items. I will definitely be coming again!
Great place ! Glad my bro and i found this shop, they got some good deals and good games plus a variety of other things like vhs, dvds and figures, was even able to find spawn/the Maxx figure..really good experience coming here so if you can stop on by and check it out
Found this place on offer up and decide to come check it out in person. Did not disappoint whatsoever! Great/ friendly customer service and an insane collection of vhs tapes, vintage consoles, games, vintage toys, etc. You'll find exactly what you're looking for here.
Great vibes great selection of games good prices as well
Really great service , has any game you're looking
I needed an Xbox 360 controller, and found this place on Google. They answered the phone call immediately, and had a great quality controller at a fair price. Matt was super friendly and the place was charmingly decorated. Def recommend!
Was looking for a gameboy advance. Called up the shop. And talked to Matt. He said he had one in stock. Went to the shop and was blown away with how much cool stuff this place has. Long story short walked out with a gameboy advance sp. Matt was very knowledgeable and nice. I recommend this place to go too for all your old classic games and consoles you might be looking for. This place is a definite 5 star in my book.
Place is awesome!!! Has tons of retro, new school!!! Matt was really cool and helpful. They'll work with you on prices as well. All In all 10/10!!!
Spent 2 hours talking about eveytbing under the sun from games to trading to the joint publication series. Had a wide slection of games and was extremly professional. I'm from the redondo beach area and was here on acident but will didefinatly be going out of my way to shop at this store.
friendly staff. Very resourceful. Lots of retro stuff to choose from.
Dude this is truly a gem of a store, dedicated people that actually love games and want to help, and they do all kinds of niche repairs for all gaming stuff, Fernando helped fix my Miyoo plus mini and was quick and communicative. Hands down the coolest video game store out here Highly recommend just coming down if you're even a little curious. ????????
This place has a lot of old games and rare items! I love the vintage TVs and consoles on display. The place is legit!
Had an awesome selection of games and they had the exact games I came in for! Really recommend coming to this game store if you want any retro games!
Fernando was a great help the man knows his stuff! This place has barely been open for 8 months but with the staff?s supreme customer service and video game knowledge you wouldn't be able to tell. Overall great experience and I will be returning.
Had a great buying experience, top notch customer service! Will be back again
i was in the market for a Playstation 2, and have been nervous to buy one since i bought one already that was no good, i came here and he tested everything in front of me and left no doubts about any product he's selling. Has a variety of games and products and is more than fair on pricing. Will definitely be back.
Pretty cool spot to get your games and other collectibles. Good customer service. I'll recommend to check it out!
Amazing customer service, welcoming and helpful. Got me what I wanted quickly and in good condition. Plan on coming back recommending to my friends
I just have a quick question before I visit one of these days, Is it heavily required to make a call for appointment or is a quick walk in okay? Because I have a few PS2 Games that need some CD repairing due to some scratches if anything.
Had an absolute blast at Matt?s store. He has everything an anything you can think of, even if you can't think about it, he will remind you when you see it amongst his collection of retro awesomeness. He was courteous, kind, and receptive of everything we discussed. He had what I wanted, and other things I didn't know I needed. If Matt doesn't have what you need, he will find it for you. He's the best. Number one in the western seaboard.
Matthew was really helpful in finding some rare gems for my ps2 and also really good pricing, best of all is he cleans every game disc and makes sure they work before final sale. If you are looking for rare and nostalgic video games 10/10 I definitely recommend doing business here
Idk. Probably legit but I felt like upon entering I was about to star in my own b rated horror film. I trust my gut on these types of things, especially in high human trafficking cities like Pomona/Montclair. Had to get buzzed in to drive pass the gate. Then motel/hotel rooms that seem odd where some were businesses while some looked like they had families on vacation renting them. I just needed a Gameboy cover case man haha so not worth getting kidnapped. Imagine entering and the deadbolt lock + those lock
went in to trade for store credit and was very satisfied the selection of games is amazing i was able to get exactly what i was looking for and cant wait to go back the gentlemen running the establishment is very professional and friendly i would recommend to anyone
Really cool place! They have a lot of good options and selections, too many good games to choose from and really good deals!
My son and I were looking for specific Wii games and controllers and Matt was extremely helpful with not only supplying what we were looking for but by providing a great deal for purchasing more than two items. Great selection and I look forward to coming to this wonderful store in the future.
I've been looking for a PS3 for a sometime with no luck. VGS had just what I was looking for. I walked out with a working system and a couple extras. Can't beat the price and the help. A+ you have a new regular. Thanks
Best game store around! They have got a great selection of goods to choose from and so convenient with them being open 24/7. Recommend for every game collector!
It’s a mix of nostalgia and high-energy fun! Many arcades blend retro classics like Pac-Man and pinball with modern VR games, racing simulators, and rhythm challenges — often with music, lights, and a social vibe.
Both can be great! Solo visits let you focus on your favorite games, while going with friends adds competition, teamwork, and laughs. Many people plan arcade meetups as a casual hangout or even date spot.
Usually just yourself and a way to pay (some arcades still use coins, others use cards or apps). If you're competitive, bring your A-game. If you're social, bring friends or meet new ones over multiplayer games.
Weekdays or early afternoons are usually less crowded — perfect for focused play. Evenings and weekends bring the buzz, especially at barcades or venues with DJs, tournaments, or themed nights.
Absolutely! Arcades attract a mix of casual players and serious gamers. Whether you're jumping into a four-player co-op or chatting between rounds, it's a fun, low-pressure way to connect over shared interests.
Not at all. While many arcades are family-friendly, there are also adult-oriented ones with full bars, 18+ nights, or vintage nostalgia themes. Arcades today cater to everyone — from first-timers to lifelong gamers.
Yes! Many arcades host regular competitions, retro nights, cosplay parties, and more. Whether you're into high scores or just want to watch and vibe, events add an extra layer to the experience.
No worries — arcades are about having fun, not being perfect. Try a variety of games, ask others for tips, and remember: the vibe is more “let’s play” than “let’s win.”
Absolutely, retro games in arcades remain a thrilling draw in 2025! Classics like Pac-Man, Space Invaders, and Street Fighter II offer simple yet addictive gameplay, blending nostalgia with timeless challenge. Modern arcade cabinets often feature crisp displays and restored controls, enhancing the experience. These games thrive on quick reflexes and strategy, with vibrant pixel art and iconic soundtracks that spark joy. Arcades host tournaments and leaderboards, fostering a lively community. While modern games dominate, retro titles provide a unique, accessible thrill that keeps arcades buzzing.
