Going to NYC today. Any awesome game related places I should check out?
Spectral | 12:08 AM on 07.10.2009 5 comments


Fill me in. After a long time of planning, I'm finally going to visit the Big Apple, 3 AM today. Obviously the first place of importance is Nintendo World, Times Square and the like. We'll just be there for a day and I don't know what to really expect or go to in a short period of time. I know this isn't much of a cblog less a "forum" topic, but I just want to know any awesome places I should check out on the first run before I go back a second time next month.

Serious and witty/sarcastic response are welcome.

And for those of you wanting a REAL Knights in the Nightmare c-blog, give me another week. I'm pretty far into the game and it's safe to say I'm at a point where I can finally make impressions on it.



Is this post awesome? Vote it up!

New Yorker here. Go to videogames New York store. They have pretty much every video game ever created and also every system too. It's on E 6th St in Manhattan. I also check out the Chinatown Fair Video Arcade‎ on 8 Mott St in Chinatown. It has a lot of great fighting games and old school too.

There is also Elizabeth Center in Chinatown too that has like one game store in there.

Hope you enjoy the Big Apple ^__^!

Metropolitan museum is great, if you're an art buff like me. If not, then everyone else has you covered. Also Nintendo World store is pretty empty and they didn't have much last time I was there, but maybe you'll have better luck.

Don't go to MR. Tang's restaurant very close to chinatown fair arcade. Street Fighter 4 arcade don't use quarters instead use dollars. Watch out for crazy people in the subways.
