This store is is nice plaza with plenty of parking. Their inventory is good and the store is well spaced out. They have a living room so you can play a small match with a friend if you like. I like the store and prices are ok. I like this store, but will still be my number 2 store. The only thing i would ask is to have a better movie selection. The games are awesome, but also need newer movies and some blu rays. Other than that, great store. Customer service seems ok. read more

I have been coming to this store for years never had any problems, yesterday I tryed to return a switch I had purchased that had a parental lock on it. It was within the 7 day return policy period, I had such a hard time returning this product the amount of greed this lady had was disrespectful. Never again. Best buy...or game stop for used games, this place is a waste if time and money. read more

Lots to awesome game that will bring you back a lot of memories! Prices aren't over the top and they have a great selection

Love love love this place. My first time here, I called about Mario Kart 64 (thinking it was pointless to ask because no on has had it in months). They had it along with several of other favorites from my childhood! The staff was incredibly friendly and nice and very cool people. I found my new video game spot and I'm super happy about it! read more

Ive lived in the south bay for my whole life and bought my first PS2 here when I was a kid about 10 years ago... as far as I know I thinkkk they've had the same owners since then and they've always been my top game store and that's pretty amazing to me. always bought my video games here. Recently I introduced my bf to this spot cause I rediscovered my gameboy and we fell into a rabbit hole of retro gaming since then.. while there are plenty of shops around his area 20 mins away, we still comes back here every so often. Staff has always been good and pricing has been either great or decent. With eBay people setting the price standards i hope this place continues to keep up and price lower than online coz that's the real deal of coming down to shop at Cali Games. read more

Came here just browsing, left with a NES, a zapper, and 6 games. Great pricing and very friendly helpful staff. And YES, duck hunt can be played with two players in one duck mode! read more

Cali Games - CRT television for duck hunt - Video Game Stores Near Me - Lawndale, California

Not a bad hole in the wall spot. Took my ps3 there to fixed there a while ago and I never had a problem with it since. Great service

This place is really great don't get me wrong, but I left a one star review cuz I saw the employee, idk if she's even the owner, replying to negative reviews in an extremely rude way. If you can't take the negative comments, you don't deserve to own a business. Big rule in business is being able to take constructive criticism and criticism in general no matter how harsh it is or how much you don't like it. Not once did I see you comment on the good reviews or thanking anyone for for visiting cali games but you sure had time to reply to negative reviews. I was a very loyal customer but your attitude on here really discourages me to even go into your store. Sorry not sorry ‍ read more

We've been playing a lot of old school co-op in out 360 lately and decided to check this place out. Prices are great. They have a ton of original Nintendo games. We are hooked. Store employees are knowledgeable and friendly, not afraid to geek out over titles. read more

I have bought games from them and I have played them. I have never played a game before and luckily i learned that I would not be harmed when the man on the screen is harmed. 10/10 for informative staff and for not being haunted. read more

Great family run shop. The have games and accessories for nearly every system after the NES. If you're a retro gamer or just recently decided to dust off something from the back of the closet, this is pretty much THE place to go. Got the 4 starts instead of 5 since service can be kind of slow, and sometimes they get new releases up to a week after the big chains like Gamestop. As was the case with the Metal Gear Solid HD collection, and the ZoE HD collection. read more

Cali Games is a rip off. They sell you a used game but tell you, you can't get the full refund amount of what you paid if something is wrong with the game. Really? How do you charge someone for a USED product and then take money from them for the used item you sold them. So you get $20.00 ( for example) for a USED product and then keep all the money. That's you punishing someone for your bad behavior. Not acceptable! And for the record I am reporting you. read more

This is now my go to place for video games. Staff there are super friendly and accommodating. They have had all the classics I have been looking for, for all systems!! Will continue to come here for more!! read more

First time here, thank you to Steven and Joanna for their amazing help and being so friendly. Spent so much time here last night looking for the right games and they were so friendly and helpful the whole time. Thank you for everything! Our game night last night was so much fun! read more

This is a pretty good Spot. Kinda Sketchy but good none the less. All they seem to care about is undercutting the competition which is great for the consumers. the only problem is it is kinda sketchy. Other than that great prices a nice big selection and decent customer service. Really though If you want to pre-order a game go to game stop(pre-order incentives). If you want to buy a game after release, a used game, or Legacy titles/consoles/accessories check this spot out. Plus they resurface disc(how I found out about this place referred to go here by gamestop because they didn't have their machine anymore) giving it 5 stars cause ultimately its a great spot will be going there for my gaming needs from nes to 360 maybe even ouya if they get it read more

I have every now and then always tried to drive down here to check out the selection of games, ( which is about a 30-40 minute drive), but after my visit on Friday, I believe it might be my last. A couple of positives I will give the store is that it is very clean, and the do have a large selection of games from retro to current. However, a majority of the retro games are very overpriced. A couple of examples are- -A loose cart of Turtles in Time for the Super Nintendo is priced at $80( which goes on ebay for about $50-60 average sold prices, and $45 on Video Game Price Charting) -A loose cart of Super Mario Bros. 2 or 3 at $30 each( $15-20 each on ebay, and $12-15 each on price charting) I noticed the prices increase with in the last year. I have never understood why prices have to be higher than ebay's average sold prices. Wouldn't it be more encouraging to have prices lower than ebay to have people come to the store. Otherwise I would save gas and just order online. However the biggest thing that aggravated me on my last visit was when I saw reproduction carts being sold. Now I am not talking of Translated cart of games that didn't come to the US, or ROM Hacks example being a SNES Mortal Kombat with the blood added back in. No, the ones I'm talking about are repros of actual US released carts like Hagane, Streets of Rage, Rocket Knight Adventures, even Turtles in Time. While yes it is a shame that some games like Hagane, Duck Tales 2 and other actual rarer games can go for hundreds on ebay, but the fact that cheap $10-15 games are having repros made disgusts me. This is borderline Illegal merchandise Such a sad state this store has turned into read more

Bad service, they act like if your a criminal when your selling a game to them. There selling ps4 games for 40.00 and the exact same game I am selling to them there only giving me $11.00 I left so fast. Very unprofessional and wait time is ridiculousness. If I can give them 0 stars I would. read more

Cali games is the perfect place to find any and every video game you could possibly think of all the way back from atari to the WII/PS3/XBOX 360! I was so happy to find old Gameboy games and systems to fulfill my need for nostalgia. They also have an amazing collection of gaming accessories. Their prices are great and the staff is quite knowledgeable about systems. I'll definitely be coming back for video game needs--specifically gameboy advance game link cables and a gameboy advance SP charger. read more

Really awesome place, friendly people too! Came here to trade in a few old games for quick cash, they ended up giving me a lot more than expected and I walked out with a handful of games for a killer deal. I wish I can time travel so I can come here instead of getting ripped off all those times at GameStop. Would recommend 5/5! read more

This place is good all the old and new games from the classic to the newest generation this game store is one of my favorite

I love cali games! recently, my ps3's blu ray laser went out and i didnt know how to fix it. eventually i found out that i had the option to contact Sony and get a new laser but it would cost me over 200 dollars AND i had to wait for 2 weeks shipping time. Then eventually i came across Caligames and they offered the same service as the one that Sony provided except it took only a couple days to fix and it was alot cheaper. Cali games is truly the best. read more

Not that many NES nintendo games. Prices are overprice. Most games do not have original box or manuals. They did not carry the NES power adapter, which is the whole reason I drove all the way over here for. I ended up going to the swapmeet, which they did have it. read more

Cali games is the way to go if you are looking for any game thy you are looking for had no problems with them and Sherman is the best if you want any repair on you console or cell phone. Best service! read more

Absolutely love this place I live in NorCal and they don't have places like these anymore when I was a kid it was funcoland. Judy the owner very helpful and her establishment is video game heaven all the classics and the new. And definitely some hidden gems in there if you can sort out her huge array of selection. I will definitely return. read more

I love Cali Games!!! The last time I went I had to choose between saving my cat from a terrible seizure or rushing in to grab the last copy of Black Opz!!!!! Beets bears battlestar galactica!!!! read more

Happy 15th anniversary Cali Games!! I've been coming here for a long time, almost 10 now since PS1 and N64 games were still popular. I used to come here all the time after high school with my classmates to buy and play games here. Even though I moved away from Lawndale a long time ago, I still come by every now and then to check out the deals that they have. Thank you for your great selection and doing business here for so long, love you guys! read more

Was in town on business and decided to check this spot out on my lunch break. It was a bit difficult to find since Yelp directions gave me the wrong address which I did alert the employees about. Once I found it I walked in and was in awe of their selection and organization of games. The games are well priced and labled. The employees are also very friendly and helpful. I would definitely recommend this place and would also return if I am ever in their neck of the woods. read more

I really don't know what all these people are talking about. I've known about this place for about 5 years now and it's been nothing but bad experiences. The service is horrible no organization what so ever and you end up standing there waiting to be attended for up to 10 minutes sometimes. I really just come here as a last resort, a quick buy like a screen protector for my vita or something like that. ....not to mention when I brought my ps3 in to get repaired they gave it back all dusty full of finger prints and barcoded stickers which is really lame because I take good care of my 1st gen ps3.... read more

This is the place to go for games old and new. I always come here to get my games for 2 reasons. One, if they have it used, its much cheaper and comes in awesome condition. And two, most likely I've scratched up one of my and need them to restore it to awesome condition. This is my one and only stop for video games and truly a diamond in the rough. THE BEST! read more

Great family operated business! My family has been shopping here for years and will continue to do so - they know their customers on a first name basis :o) We go to Cali because they are friendly and helpful - this is especially important to me as I am the aunt of a child with special needs, and we always feel welcome. I also love that they have old-school games and systems and used ipods. I have saved a TON of money here! read more

Great games at an amazing price, I come here for mostly retro games which they have a wide selection on

Nice store and nice costumer service. All kind of games new and used

Not exciting like it was when I was kid, took my daughter here to buy a game for her DS and the place looked like a ghost town...they don't have the tv's set-up for the locals to play and try games like they use to...Judy got big headed and forgot that the city of lawndale and Hawthorne took care of her after all these years...don't forget where u came from, rather give my money to game stop, atleast you get a greeting walking in the door read more

Great little mom and pop type place. I don't buy many video games but when I do i like to come here. Great selection of new and old games (my friends and i recently resurrected an N64 and we found a bunch of games for it here). Owners are friendly and helpful, great place. read more

This Cali games is even worse than the first. It's almost as if they are conducting some sort of experiment to see how bad customer service can be before everyone stops coming . read more

Besides Book-off, this place is the only legit place to buy old games and consoles. I'm talking old-school stuff. Other than that I would have to go on ebay and do a scavenger hunt to try and find the right game I want. Also they ALWAYS have a deal on when you buy 2 you get the 3rd for free or something like that. Always good ass deals. The location is kinda far from where I live but damn I love this place. The last good retro game store there is. read more

I came to this game store a few weeks ago, and was blown away. I left this store and I got 5 used games for $20/ The game selection is amazing. They have all of used and new systems and games. They have movies as well. This is a great store. I highly recommend it. read more

Big smile on my face when I see old school Nintendo games and gaming systems. They also sell used gaming consoles, repairs, tons of new games for the new gaming consoles. Thankfully I am lucky enough to live very close by to this spot. Even though I don't purchase much from them I still manage to check the old NES games out. They even have some free stuff on the way out near the door don't forget to double check!! read more

Found out about this place due to my girlfriend and have been coming ever since. Along with another brony of mine, we have become regulars of this little shop. Seriously, if you are a gamer and live in the area, you should really check this place out. The staff is always helpful and the selection is amazing. Everytime I go I get nostalgic as I look at the old school games and systems they have here. JUST TAKE MY MONEY CALI GAMES! As a retro gamer, I have to will myself not to walk out of the store with a purchase in my hands. If I was a hardcore collector of old school games, this location would be my go to store. Great job guys. read more

Great place to buy an Xbox 360 or ps4. Nice managers, great selection of N64 games, and a place I'd recommend getting games at.
