They are a locally owned used video games & movies . they changed there location , near Red Castle Games, on foster rd . the staff is generally knowledgeable, friendly. They take good care of their customers. My kids have been buying& trading video games there for years. They know the difference between good & bad service.

The best videogame store in Portland!! They have all the old-school consoles and games. Some pretty sick action figures as well. All good prices and the people that work there are all actually into the games. Not just there for a paycheck so if you're looking for something or just want to get the scoop on what's new(or old) they'll be more than happy about talking games with you.

Video Game Wizards is a great store for retro games. It's more expensive then ebay and they don't do price matching but but paying extra is worth it for the in store experiance and being able to look at what your buying. However platforms like the PS4 and Nintendo Switch have a lack luster selection and is pretty pricey. It's more worth your time and money to go to gamestop and buy those there.

Really cool place. It was very busy but the employees were very helpful and accommodating and even went out of their way to look for a certain Xbox game for me. And I finally found where I can get Gameboy Color games! They literally have everything. And their games also have a 10 day guaranteed which is very rare for second hand shops.
