I'm visiting from Hawaii, and there are no stores like it besides thrift shops and buy/sell bookstores where you only hope someone donates or sells their games, which is very rare, and also hope they're not incredibly overpriced, which is often. I found Gamedeals and Press Start. I went to Gamedeals first, and it's in the same area as Press Start in New Westminster. I wish I can to Press Start first! It's a small store and messily organized because it's jam packed with everything retro. I was just interested in NES games. Their quantity isn't much, but their prices are a lot better than the other store. They also have more rare games, but they were still overpriced, just not as much. The person who helped me was very friendly and helpful. He's genuinely into this stuff and it clearly shows! I grabbed another load of NES games even though I said I wouldn't because I still had to carefully pack it away in my luggage. Next trip, I'll just bring an empty suitcase with bubble wrap! Overall, I wish there were more stores and people who sell retro games fairly and reasonably because the people buying are collectors too and look to just collect. Most people just price gouge like crazy just looking for the uninformed customers. I'm glad Press Start Video Games doesn't do that. All their games are guaranteed with a 14 day return policy (much better than 7 days at other stores). Just a great store! Reminded me of a video game store in Kaimuki I went to every Saturday when I was a kid. I regret not buying more NES games at that time!

I'm taking my full final f*ckin' Karen form on this one. I'll preface by saying I know jack squat about Pokémon cards, nor will I ever claim to. However, my 7-year old son adores Pokémon, is an avid trader and collector among his peers and with his uncle, and prior to this experience, we've been quite fond of this place. Yesterday, he was pumped to get a quote for the value of a handful of cards that he had been excited to receive in trades. Prior to going in, I told him to temper his expectations, and that he would likely receive a much lower quote than he was expecting. I explained what a for-profit business is, and the difference in what they quote and what they turn around to sell is how they pay the bills. I told him if he wasn't satisfied with a quote, he didn't have to do a thing and just hang on to the cards. Still quite shy about approaching any customer service situation, he sheepishly approached the lady behind the Pokémon counter, asking if he might get a quote for the seven cards in his little protective binder. Interrupting him, without even opening his binder or giving a simple glance at any of the cards, the lady said, "Those are all bulk cards and are worthless." This upset me, not because of her opinion, but because of the way she just wrote him off. She gave absolutely no shits about the kid. I asked, "Are you able to tell the value of any given card without knowing which card it is or even seeing the card?" Response from the Smug Pokémon Bitch (a term I avoid using at most costs) : "Oh yeah, just like any other industry, when you've been doing something for this long, you become an expert." We promptly left. Smug Pokémon Bitch appears to be an expert in negative marketing because I'm blasting this experience far and wide. Regardless of the true value of his cards, had she taken the thirty seconds to just take a look at them instead of writing him off simply because he's a child, I wouldn't be wasting the energy or time to type this out. But this warrants the Karenning. Take your business elsewhere. This place can kick rocks.

I'm visiting from Hawaii, and there are ZERO stores selling retro video games besides the thrift shops and buy/sell bookstores where you only hope someone donates or sells their games, which is very rare, and hope they're not incredibly overpriced, which is often. Nintendo NES games is what I'm collecting at the moment. I had a pretty big collection when I was a kid, and recently felt like expanding it. Luckily, Vancouver has a couple of these stores, and Gamedeals Video Games has TONS of NES games!!! Getting to this store located in New Westminster from Downtown Vancouver was a journey, but worth it. Coming into this store brought back so many memories when I used to go to video game stores almost every week 20 years ago. It was pretty much the exact same thing! Not only was there video games, there were also toys, board games, and other awesome things. Everything was very organized by section and in alphabetical order. I spent a good hour here just browsing and selecting my games. For the NES games, they were only loose games or with the box. No dust sleeves or instruction booklets for the loose games for some reason. It was hard not to buy every game that I don't have, but I only bought the ones that were priced below market value and in good condition. In the end, I came out with 8 games. I definitely would've bought more if I stayed longer! But I need to safely bring them all home! I was looking for rare games, which they had a few, but way, way, overpriced. Overall, a nice, nostalgic experience. An excellent store with games and accessories for every game console since the Atari. The staff wasn't exactly the friendly, talkative, super nerdy bunch, but friendly enough. I felt I got a decent deal for my games. Definitely happy! Hopefully they all work cause returning them would be a little troublesome.

Staff was initially VERY reluctant to help, saying it's going to take a month (!) for the refund to be processed and suggested I go into the store instead blah x 3. Anyway I insisted and eventually got my money back in about two weeks. Not too impressed with the service to be honest.

When I inquired about a game, they replied with a shrug and "It's only $20." Any uncertainty I had was wiped away after that- I put the game back and promptly left the store.

The only reason I gave two stars instead of one is because they had a decent selection.
