Also, I know that I said my next blog would be bigger, but this was just some news I caught wind of, so ya. I really hope that they put a retro section in the store.

... Yah... these places never last long, seeing as screwattack just bought this game store from other owners they more than likely sold it because of shit business thanks to gamestop taking all the business. Shame as I saw some killer deals on original xbox games in that video. We'll see, all the good games stores in my town shut down thanks to gamestop crushing them buy opening a story every 3 blocks.

@ Chronoswing - You know i used to have the same mentality but then this awesome store rolled into Houston named Games Plus and they have been alive and Kicking for nearly 2 years. I wish them the best of luck!

Sounds like a good idea.
That stuttering bastard was super excited, as well he should be.
That store, regardless of who or what company owned it before, looks very, very nice.
There were rows and rows of video games, candy and gaming merchandise. =)
Damn, if only it wasn't in Texas or wherever the hell it's located.
Video game stores like that could work. Wish there was more of 'em.
Check this out.. This dude who owned a video store near me just closed it down, only to open up an awesome video game store called Phoenix Games.
He sells everything from Atari 2600 systems to Neo Geo games. There is even a working ColecoVision in the store! There are also a ton of old arcade games, including Donkey Kong and Marvel vs Capcom. And he has this crazy, sick set-up with four huge HD sets in a row, including Ultimate Game Chairs, where you can test out new games and play in tournys.
The place is serious.
I give this guy a helluva lot of credit. He has a set of balls opening up a place like this, considering a Game Crazy and a GameStop are near by, within a mile..
I try to give him, the little guy, my business, but he doesn't always have the newest games. I went in to buy Punch Out!! for the Wii, this past Tues, but he didn't have it.
So, I went down the street to Game Crazy.
Moral of the story...

@Artemus - Well the major problem is the distributors, from what i hear... Give him a couple of days if you don't mind holding out for a game

@Mentok
Yeah, that's what he told me.
Trust me, he'll be getting my business, just not on every new game.
I mean, every damn time I go in there I see a SNES I want and buy it.
My friend just bought Majora's Mask from there.
Nothing beats playing an older game on the actual system. Nothing.

I definitely try to support the non-big name gaming sellers (unless it's the dicks at the local flea market who just rip people off...).

Craig seems to have endless drive and enthusiasm. I do hope this works out for him. :)

Mentok, I live in Pearland, just south of Houston. Where can I find one of these Games Plus stores?
