Do you tofu? Posts: 384 Group: Senior Members Member #3,012 Joined: February 16, 2016	This thread is dedicated to reviews and ratings of game shops that members here have patronized. These can either be local shops you frequent or even places you have come across in your travels. Everyone is encouraged to write reviews in order for this thread to be as comprehensive as possible. When rating selection and pricing, state whether each is poor, average, good, or excellent. If you don't know one of them, just put N/A. Each generation also includes their respective handheld consoles. When posting, please use the following format: Name: City: State/Province: Country: Pre-Third Gen Gaming (Atari, etc) Selection: Pricing: Third Gen Gaming (NES, etc.) Selection: Pricing: Fourth Gen Gaming (SNES, Genesis, etc) Selection: Pricing: Fifth Gen Gaming (N64, PS, Saturn, etc) Selection: Pricing: Sixth Gen Gaming (Xbox, PS2, GCN, DC, etc) Selection: Pricing: Seventh Gen Gaming (360, PS3, Wii, etc) Selection: Pricing: Eighth Gen Gaming (One, PS4, Wii U, etc) Selection: Pricing: General Thoughts: Overall Rating: Optional Picture of Store Front So I'll kick it off with a local shop I go to frequently... Name: Reaction Games City: South Bend State/Province: Indiana Country: USA Pre-Third Gen Gaming (Atari, etc) Selection: Poor Pricing: Good Third Gen Gaming (NES, etc.) Selection: Good Pricing: Average Fourth Gen Gaming (SNES, Genesis, etc) Selection: Excellent Pricing: Average Fifth Gen Gaming (N64, PS, Saturn, etc) Selection: Average Pricing: Average Sixth Gen Gaming (Xbox, PS2, GCN, DC, etc) Selection: Good Pricing: Good Seventh Gen Gaming (360, PS3, Wii, etc) Selection: Good Pricing: Average Eighth Gen Gaming (One, PS4, Wii U, etc) Selection: Poor Pricing: Poor General Thoughts: A great place to hang out and talk video games. Very friendly staff that also does repairs. Atmosphere makes up for slightly higher prices. Local shop owned by brothers who love video games. Overall Rating: 9/10

Seventh Gen Gaming (360, PS3, Wii, etc) Selection: Decent Pricing: Average Eighth Gen Gaming (One, PS4, Wii U, etc) Selection: Amazing Pricing: Retail price General Thoughts: The store only carries 7th and 8th generation games. The 7th generation games are barely cheaper than an eBay price. There are no outstanding games that are generally there, but occasionally a gem can be found. 8th generation games are at retail price and come in a great variety. The staff are nice and will usually help you to find games and answer questions. Overall Rating: 8.0

Prices are especially good here on N64 games and most consoles. Severely lacking in older gen accessories. Great selection for 360, PS2, and Xbox games, but others are more limited. N64 selection is extremely limited but gems occasionally come in for dirt cheap. Also sell DVDs/Blurays. Overall Rating: 8/10 Edited by TofuJunky87, Apr 4 2016, 08:51 PM.
