My son ordered a Nintendo 3DS online. Unfortunately, it was a Japanese import, took over a month to arrive, and all of the gaming text/information was in Japanese. My son was both disappointed and distraught. He told me there were places where we could trade in his import and, for a little more, get one in English. My son contacted GameStop and was told that they only had 2DSs on hand. They did, however, recommend that we try Planet Fun. It is located in downtown Savannah, so I was immediately annoyed. Downtown is so congested and tourist-y. You can NEVER find a convenient place to park, so you have to wear comfortable walking shoes when you head in that direction. We went to Planet Fun several days later and as per the norm, could not find a parking spot. Because they were about to close in half an hour, I parked illegally (shhhh...our little secret). I was UNPREPARED for what I was about to see and experience! I am 52-years-old which means I grew up in the 1970s and 80s. Most people don't know it but I am TOTALLY a Star Trek-Star Wars-Marvel Comics-DC Comics- all around sci-fi NERD!!! Planet Fun was AWESOME! They had ALL kinds of nerdy memorabilia, retro video games (like Pac Man and Ms. Pac man games slightly smaller than the 80s arcade versions), life size characters (like a formidable Darth Vader that I talked myself out of purchasing), cool comic collectible cards from the 80s and 90s (made of plastic to be more durable), and many other AMAZING hidden gems! My son did not get as much for the trade-in as he was hoping for (he paid $150 for the import) and still had to pay nearly $100 to get the English version that was priced at only $140. That kind of sucked, but the guy at the counter was very patient with us as we asked questions about trading practices and other concerns. Even though the store was closing, he never rushed us or made us feel anxious. I wish I had snapped pictures inside of this wondrous place, but I will DEFINITELY go back to buy some stuff (and snap pictures way before closing time LOL). I would have given Planet Fun 5 stars instead of 4, but I thought the trade-in amount was meager. We should have just bought the $140 English version and auctioned off the Japanese version online. If you are all sci-fi and nerdy like me, for sure check out Planet Fun, Beloveds.

Best store in Savannah! They have everything- comics, Star Wars, Star Trek, HeMan, GI joe, Barbie, Surfside, Pokémon, toys from your youth. There is no need to search distant galaxies- the Planet of Fun is here! Go check it out- you will never be the same! You might run into professional wrestlers, aliens, or even live Power Rangers!v Favorite place in Savannah!!!

Place is super cool, I love going here! Their pricing is weird, some things aren't worth looking at for price, some things are priced very low. Definitely worth checking out every time you visit

Questions & Answers

What are the Covid safety practices like here?

Jackie Geiger | Oct 8, 2021

They enforce the mask-wearing policy and they do limit how many people can be in the store at once, since it's a bit of a smaller space.

Do they have any Nintendo switches

Shanarria Morgan | Oct 9, 2018
Stefanie Chipperfield | Oct 9, 2018

I don't know the full extent of their gaming/Nintendo inventory -- BUT Planet Fun is mainly vintage things, i.e. 1960s-1980s. So you might find an SNES but probably not a Switch.

Yes! If you call ahead and are looking for a specific one they should be able to tell you if they have it or not or could possibly keep an eye out for you and call you if they get one in. Just call and ask for John the owner or Savannah a long time employee. ♥

Whenever I try to message them online via things like their Facebook page it can take days for them to respond. This place is basically a nerd pawn shop though. So what they have will be very random

Gregory Ryan Martin | Oct 9, 2019

They most likely would be, it seems like something they would be into. The best way to check if they would be interested is by bringing it in to see if they would buy it.

killtacular vapes | Oct 9, 2018
Planet Fun | Oct 9, 2018

Yup! Just to warn you though: we sell most Beanie Babies for $3.50, so individually they don't add up to much. Usually when people bring them in they're in incredibly massive bulk lots though, so they still add up that way.
