I highly recommend stopping into this place for three reasons…read more One, you need a serotonin boost Two, you're a tourist and want something very New York and actually unique to the city that you won't really find anywhere else Three, you're a collector or thinking about getting into retro video games Video Games New York has been around forever and I really hope it stays that way for a long time. It honestly feels like one of the last spots in the city where you can walk in and see this huge, slightly chaotic collection of games and consoles all in one place. The Nintendo 64 section is probably my favorite part. They have so many different variations it's kind of nostalgic overload in the best way. And they've also started adding video game soundtrack vinyls which is really dope and fits the vibe perfectly. The staff is also super cool and really knowledgeable without being overbearing. Just don't go in only to browse. Try to grab something if you can, even if it's just one of the anime themed sodas or a small piece of merch. Places like this really feel like they deserve the support so they can stick around.

Everything is tightly packed and has a huge variety of selection. In the back corner there are some signed collectibles and a small case of highly valued video game history. --Service/Staff-- Staff was quick to help me in finding my selection. There are so much to look at in such a small space. They even talked about some of their suppliers which great to hear or not hear being a video game nerd myself. --Food/Products-- Walk to walk and every space is taken with video games. They have one of the largest PS Vita collection, PSP, new, used that I have ever seen. If you are looking for something. Chances are to look here first before trying to purchase it online --Capacity-- Since wall-to-wall video games. There can only be one person in each aisle since there is not enough room to walk past each other. I want to say. No more than 3-5 people can be in the store because of how tight it is. --Overall-- A great place to look for video games. Note some video games have been there for a while and might have some dust on them. I will swing by every time I am in NY.

I know that it is generally some testing and resoldering to make things right. J&L quoted a reasonable price, and completed the work in under a week. We got the unit back, working great and even cleaned up of dust. The folks here are knowledgeable, and they have a great depth of vintage units, games and accessories. Was excited to see things from my childhood, Intellivision, etc. Super cool store, a mid-town gem, and there's a few cool shops nearby as well.

The store is well-designed and packed with Nintendo nostalgia, from classic characters to newer releases. There's a good mix of merch, collectibles, and display areas that are fun to browse, even if you're not planning to buy anything. It can get a bit crowded, and people lined up at least 10 minutes before the shop opened. Staff were friendly, and everything felt organized despite the traffic. Not a long stop, but a fun one -- especially if you're a Nintendo fan or just exploring the area.
