Super Smash Video Games

If you are a fan of retro games, you will love this place! Great selection, a fun atmosphere, and good prices. (I just recently picked up two Dreamcast games for about $ 4 each) Customer service can be lackluster at times, but they get real busy on the weekends it seems.
Overall, its a pleasure to shop here!

Here is the thing. I actually haven’t been in the store but i still need to leave positive feedback. I have been doing business with Andy for a few years now at game shows and what not. Last week he even held an expensive item for my friend to pick it up and mail it to me. Not too many guys will go out of their way for that level of service. Great rare title selection as well! Great trade in values!

Love this place. Good friendly atmosphere and excellent staff. This is a definite go to store for any video game need.

Best Place Ever! Went into trade in my Old Purple GameCube with 10 games, Got a Great Price and walked out with 5 PS4 Games. Let the Haters hate and shop at GameStop lol.

Seriously the best place ever! Not only does it have every game and console you could ever want but also most people don’t know it sells perler beads in every shade of color unlike other craft stores. Buy 4 get 1 free. Seriously so happy right now I found everything I wanted. Also everyone there was super nice and helpful.

I won’t lie, I am giving them a high score because they sold me a game that I’ve been tracking for awhile at a good price. But I will try and be detailed on why this place is good from my experience rather than my purchase. So here goes:
As I read some of the earlier reviews, I can kind of agree that the staff seems to be in their own world. But I approached one of the guys and I had no problem getting his full attention. He seemed to be twiddling his thumbs or something but once I got his attention, he was fully attentive in helping me find what I needed.
He knew what I was looking for and was able to help me find what games I was interested in while giving some recommendations on similar games. Being from out of state, he was also able to tell me more about Tacoma and updated me with some more of the Washington state laws.
A few moments later, he helped another person and another guy came to take his place as soon as I needed to find another game. Further talked to him and he tells me that they often have smash tournaments (project M & mêlée) every now and then. Asked him about a few N64 games and he seemed to be very knowledgeable what I was trying to find out.
Regarding the stores selection, they seem to have a lot. One thing that I think they have that most retro game stores around do not are the wall of N64 games to the side of their store. I do not know why but N64 games seem to be scarce in other places.
They also have some good rare stuff such as complete copies of Valkyrie Profile, Brigandine Legend of Forsena, Tales of Destiny II, and was tempted to buy more.
Like with Another Castle Videogames up in Edmonds, they also have a coin-​op arcade attached to the side in another room. It was closed during my visit but I did see a few arcade machines from glancing over. I forgot what they had exactly.
Overall, this would be one of my favorite video game places during my Seattle trip and I would definitely come back and recommend this place for all your retro game finds.

You will be lucky to get them to look away from the computer. They will have a blank stare as you ask a question. Last of all wont buy basic accessories for consoles (like controllers or headsets) from you so don’t waste your time.

I stumbled upon this store with a friend yesterday and decided to check it out. The venue was like a gamer’s heaven. The shelves were super packed with games from every console in existence. The staff are that I have talked with were helpful, knew what they were talking about and made the visit all the more enjoyable! There was even an arcade! Definitely going to be coming here often! c:

I’ve gone here a couple of times and in my most recent visit, I got to talk to one of the owners, Andy. Seemed like a super nice guy and was very helpful, even allowing me to film for my Youtube channel (it’s just a dinky channel, nothing fancy).
Their selection of retro games is fantastic (though, I can only really comment on the NES and SNES games, since those are all I am collecting for, but they do have a butt-​ton of disc based games). The organization is great, though I do wish they were in alphabetical order (I know that is difficult (or impossible) maintain, but just something that came to mind), but browsing is very easy. Questions were answered promptly and the side room is an arcade!
Pricing is something of a contentious issue, but almost all prices are inline with pricing conventions elsewhere. I always felt I received a good deal from them.
Has to be one of the best game stores around.

We have been looking for a Nintendo 64 for a reasonable price and we were able to call and they held it for us which was nice because the previous day I called they had two in stock and they sold quick. I asked to put it on hold while I drove from south hill. I walked into the store and AMBER was very welcoming and helpful our new 64 was ready at the front counter. Excellent suggestions and great customer service. Will definitely return for future purchases

Store was clean and well organized. They had an enormous selection of games for EVERY system. The employees were very helpful and knowledgable. I found my new favorite game store!

Its amazing! I mean they have all the games from my childhood. Even if they dont have it they will find it and give you a call to let you know they have it now. They even sell nes and snes controlers. And they have a freaking arcade!!! Stop what you are doing and go there right now! Thank me later

Every time I go here there is an insane amount of employees behind the counter and none of them are helping customers. They’re all just chatting together behind the counter. I came in to maybe get my husband a gift for christmas, there were a handful of customers in the store and more people behind the counter than customers. Literally no one offered to help me.
Aside from the odd lack of customer service with such an abundance of employees, the store is a mess. Seriously, how hard is it to clean up?
This store just seems to be handled very unprofessionally. It’s too bad too because we need more well managed, awesome nerdy stores in Tacoma.

We went to this establishment earlier today, around 730 pm, and we’re greeted by some very non personable employees, and over priced retro games. We were in there for about 20 mins, and the employees never even looked up, let alone greet us and ask us if they could help with anything. I can deal with higher prices, if the employees are willing to at least ask if we need anything, because this store is really close to our house, but they were very rude and very much preoccupied with other things.

Me & my husband came in to browse and we love it here!
The store is not overly huge so it’s easy to browse and chat with the associated with out feeling like you’re screaming across the room.
We were able to find some oldie but goodies and a very decent price.
The store is clean, well organized & the staff is knowledgeable on the systems & games (even if they’re not they will find someone who is).
I strongly suggest this family friendly store for those trying to bond with their kids on games we played when we were their age.

I have nothing but praise for this store!!! I mean come on, if not for your own nostalgia, or childhood… you’ll love it for the fact that they have a super awesome variety of video games and gaming system (and an arcade hello)!!! I’m talking everything… Super Famicon (Japanese version of SNES), Sega, and Gameboy just to name a few. They also have current gaming systems… It’s candy land for the gamers:] There’s an Arcade in the next room. I’m always tempted to go in but I might never want to leave lol
I came here with my husband. We both had a mission, he was on a hunt for SNES and I wanted more games for my old Gameboy that’s been boxed for years… We found both and then some! Donkey Kong Country, Zelda, Mario. OH MY (^_​-​)
Stop in to look or stop in to by. Either way it’ll make you happy!!!

Took my on the fritz SNES to these guys to see if they could fix it up, couldn’t but spent 30 minutes trying and I appreciated the effort. Will definitely go back there for my video game needs.

I’ve only been here once, but I was impressed. They have a HUGE selection, and from what I could tell, a friendly staff. I was looking for a hard to find Xbox game, they had it in stock for $ 10. I called before I went in, and they had it waiting at the counter when I got there. Will definitely be using these guys again!

Check this place out for all your gaming needs… legit selection of retro games and all new releases too. Excellent customer service and prices which you don’t really get at most chain owned stores.

An awesome little store! I got a couple of games resurfaced for a decent price. They did a great job :)
