The review below me is quite laughable, honestly. I have been going to Game Exchange since I was a little girl. No joke. They were called "Microplay" back then and I was obsessed. The games that they sell here are quite reasonable in price, and you don't have to pay for shipping. They also test whatever second hand product you are buying, right in front of you, so you know what you are getting. I've bought games & consoles, second hand online, only to get them and they don't work. Good luck getting your money back. It's going to take your over a year, and it's not even worth it at that point. The general public, like the other reviewer seen below, seem to also think that games are not valuable. He probably went in looking for a copy of Mario Party for N64, seen the price, and thought they were out to lunch. Meanwhile, on Kijiji, Ebay & Amazon, they are all expensive, unless it's defective, which will usually be specified in the add. The staff at Game Exchange are wonderful! Very knowledgeable, and probably know more about games than our fellow reviewer, as I'm sure I do as well. You should always support local when you can & Game Exchange is local. While I do enjoy shopping at EB, I will always check out Game Exchange while in the area, and will always continue to support them. read more

Do not go to this store! The games they sell here are overpriced and can be picked up on eBay or Amazon for a half the price. I understand the amount they give you for used games, it's only a couple of dollars (this is the same across all game stores). The staff are not all that knowledgeable in games. I've inquired about many games and just engaged in random gamer conversation with some of the employees and they had no idea what I was talking about and my friends have reported the same. They are also moody, some days they are ok to talk to but most days they are stuck up and rude, it seems like they do not care about the customers. They have also been caught releasing games early and not abiding by the rules game producers and developers have set. If you can go anywhere else, do it! I always go to EB Games now because the staff are very friendly and know just about everything about gaming, if one of the employees do not know something, another one will. As for used games like NES, SNES, SEGA, etc, go to eBay. read more

Purchased a refurbished X-Box from them few years ago and the owner still asks me how it's working. Some of the items can be pricy, however they have a huge selection of older games hard to find locally. I support local businesses , while you are there pop next door to Manna Bakery yummy . read more

In Newfoundland it's hard to find good game stores with reasonable prices, but this store is my go to stop for retro game items. The workers are nice and well knowledge about what they are talking about. Also they have a list of games so if you ask they'll tell you if they have it or not, another great thing is they test games and consoles in store. One time I was there trading in some old Xbox games but I didn't get much money out of it, they picked out a few games and declined the console. I'm assuming that OG Xboxes don't sell the best so they don't want to overflow in stock. But I like this store because it's close to the Avalon Mall, it's more of a convenience going in looking at games intsted of taking a gamble and ordering games online, and the workers treat you with respect and I even bought a game and they cut off 5.00 off of a game I bought a while back. So the prices are a little much and you don't get much money off of trade ins but I believe from my personal experience the store deserves 4/5. read more
