Emu | Unfortunately, no. It sucks because I have people come in all the time and buy copies of Mario/Duck Hunt and then bring it back the next day because their guns won't work with their Retro-Duo | ||

10,000 Volt Ghost | Why else would you go to florida then if not for good games. Someone stole my Suikoden 1 and my Suikoden 2. I found them in Florida at a Game Dungeon for $10 a piece, had enough to buy Clock Tower 1 and Clock Tower 2. | ||

Mockery | Heheh, he wouldn't even need to setup a store online really. He could just put shit up on eBay and make a killing, but I can totally understand wanting to have inventory for the brick & mortar business. | ||

Emu | I actually did suggest it, but the owner refuses to put his stuff online. He knows they'll sell online, but then he'll be like all of the other retro stores in the area and have nothing actually in the store. I have a lot of respect for him for that reason. | ||

Ant10708 | you should suggest to the owners to consider doing online sales and set up a site. I imagine that store would do well online | ||

Edit: I also wanted to make clear that I do not own or operate this store, I just work part time there. I just love the place and would like to encourage business. The internet's probably not the place to do that given store policy of local business, but if you're in the area, come check it out. Also, I bought that CDX today. :3 |

Babs | Down in Columbus Ohio we have something pretty good retro video game shops. They have a lot of rare gems that they don't even know are worth good amounts. I've purchased Magician for NES for $10, now that's amazing. But I'm going to have to say you're store is by far better than anything around here. | ||

Ant10708 | How much for one of those Retro Duo systems? And would you ship to NY? | ||
Mar 19th, 2009 05:18 PM | |||
timrpgland | That's a pretty awesome store. Most of our local shops like that pretty much suck but that's northern Minnesota for you. | ||

Yeah the first Nintendo Power had an awesome clay sculpture of Super Mario Bros. 2. Here it is: JOIN THE NINTENDO FUN CLUB TODAY! :O |

Emu | I thought they were the same thing. My mistake. | ||

Sam | That's the first Nintendo Power strategy guide, not the first Nintendo Power. | ||

Another long day, so more photos. A second-gen Sega CD. It's kinda skanky looking and the door doesn't stay closed unless you physically push the open button back into the closed position. Though, knowing Sega, this may be intentional. A first gen Sega CD. Not for sale. We killed Master Chief. DS stuff. Speaking of DS, we occasionally sell replacement parts for some systems. They're generally knock-off brands made in Taiwan or something. The packaging is always hilarious, like this DS replacement shell: The back of the package says this, verbatim: "1.For the various bright colors, you can choose what you like. 2.Make your game console look much newer and more beautiful. 3.Meet your individual seeking." More gimmick controllers. The Street Fighter one is just like the ones they released for SF4, but wired and for the PS2. We sell player's guides. Some of them are cool, like the following. Some of them are less cool, like this monstrosity I found. I wasn't able to get a decent photo that properly portrays the absolutely bizarre artwork on the cover of this thing because my camera is awful. So here's this blurry thing. It's as though they hired an artist, gave him a handful of games and told him to draw from them. Most notable is Trisomy 21 Link on the bottom left corner, who has yellow eyes, no pupils, and is basically just a fat elf. I guess that's how he looked in the game, too, so I can't fault him on that. It also seems to have some kind of hatred for vegetables. We have a tomato getting hit with a baseball bat, a carrot being fired out of a canon, and a lonely onion with stink lines sitting on a cloud in the top left. He's also crying. Not to mention that dragon. I don't think anything needs to be said about it. Just look at it. Another gimmick controller that looks awesome but seems like it would be awful to actually play with. The first Nintendo Power. We also sell movies |

There's a store like this near my house, only it's incredibly overpriced and doesn't have half that stuff. It's the only one in MD, too. Then again, $175 for the Control Deck and $60 for a Jaguar seems a little steep. If I PM'ed you a list of NES/Genesis/SNES games I'm desperately looking for, could you by any chance find out the prices? :3 |

Emu | It's a CDX, and it's 109, and that's on reserve for me. :D I think we have a second gen Sega CD, but I don't know how much that would be. I'll check tomorrow. | ||

Shutup. There are a shitload of stores all over Canada that sell retro-gaming hardware. |
