I was surprised to see a Loopy! I grew up with a lot of these old consoles as a military brat/kid in Japan and I was hit with so many fond memories playing games with friends. I'm still on the hunt for a Nintendo Disk System but at least I found one of the ゲゲゲの鬼太郎 games! Some prices were a but ridiculous IMO but others seemed like a great deal. YMMV but overall a very fun shop. We actually went to the main location the next day and had just as much fun!

I reached out to them while hunting for an out-of-print game, and although they didn't have it in stock, the staff went out of their way to provide helpful advice that ultimately led me to find it elsewhere. It is rare to find a business that respects the questions of some random person with an unusual request. Five stars!

As we entered, we were greeted by an employee who told us that if we had any questions then we could ask anytime. We were just browsing at the moment and saw that they had a huge collection of board games to look at. I loved their Halloween decorations in the store! One issue we had was when we wanted to check out the TCG section but it is in a separate room with a locked door. We wanted to go in but the employee was busy at the moment so we had to wait several minutes before we could go in. It felt awkward for us as we didn't want to interrupt or rush the employee but after waiting, the employee was kind enough to open the door and let us look around. We got a One Piece pack and while we were purchasing, we were told that they have a rewards program that is free to join so we decided to join that too in case we come back. The prices seem fairly priced so it is definitely a great spot to buy board games or TCGs.

I want to give a big shout to this shop before it decamps for Beaverton…read more Rune & Board came into Hillsboro at a time when Hillsboro retail didn't cater to anyone under the age of, oh, 55 and certainly didn't address the interests of broad swaths of the city's population. R&B made it clear that not only were there a ton of gamers in the area whose needs weren't being addressed whatsoever, but that a knowledgeable staff and a stable space were all that was needed to give that community a home. Also, to be so inclusive of women that my longtime gamer buddy's wife was stunned when she walked in and was not only one of several women in the building, but the only one not actively buying or playing... that's how you start to need double the space. I'll admit, I don't like seeing this place go and I'm not a fan of the trend I'm seeing. We lost the town's only bookstore to Beaverton. Retro Game Store's gaming club and Gongali also moved from west of 185th to Beaverton. If Hillsboro and Forest Grove can't find the space for businesses like these--the ones that actually build communities, create third spaces, and encourage people here to join in and become part of something--they're going to keep losing both business and interest to Beaverton, Portland, and other places that are generally more encouraging. Thank you for my cherished copy of King of Tokyo, more Warhammer gifts than I likely should've purchased my friend, and all of the hours you set up shop for your regulars and newcomers. You're some of the good guys in Downtown Hillsboro, and the place will be less welcoming in your absence.

It's so charming and you have no idea what's in store just by walking by. The space is much larger than I anticipated and the children there were having a good time.

However, THEY DO NOT HONOR THE PRICING LISTED ON THEIR WEBSITE. When I noticed they'd charged me 20%-ish more than what was listed on their site, which was already more than what the standard price was at other ballet stores, I walked back in the store to let them know. The saleswoman ignored me while chatting with another associate about what they were going to order for lunch. When she turned her attention to me and I shared that I'd been charged more than what was listed, she unapologetically told me that the online pricing includes shipping and therefore is listed as less since the shipping adds to the cost of the purchase. I've never experienced this with another business and found the response disappointing.
