Love this store! Always a great place to browse and find something interesting. Wide selection of games, merch and cards. As a vintage card collector, this is my go-to. Staff is always friendly and helpful. read more

A good selection of games. Had a good time here! Jacob was awesome and super helpful! Will definitely stop by again. read more

DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME!! I should have known by the mixed reviews. I drove 30 minutes out of the way, hoping for quality service. I took two bins of vintage games to them to get looked at. Gotta call the next afternoon with a very low ball offer ...they claim to pay the most......I went to BookOff the week before and got quoted double the price??? Then I was told that two of the gaming systems didn't work . I had no issues with BookOff. BookOff tested them, they had no issues. When I went to pick up my stuff, I guess a third gaming system-had been added to the not working list it had a bight green posted attached. Thankfully... Just picked up my money from BookOff with no issues they took all the systems. ***Math isn't mathing. read more

Nothing really unique to find. Just old games. I always see the same old games. Just have to keep going to eventually see something you might want. read more

This location (HB) of Retro Games Plus has a great selection of used games and consoles. The game prices are good and we've had no issues with any we've purchased. However, recently we also purchased a refurbished XBox 360 from here. They only give a 2 month warranty/return on their game systems and of course the door stopped sliding open 2 1/2 months after purchase. The best they could do was refer us to a repair place in Garden Grove. RGP is good for used games, but we don't recommend purchasing their consoles. Try Game Stop, they give a year warranty. read more

I've been getting back into retro gaming. This store is small, but organized. They have all the systems you may want. I'm interested in the good old GameBoy and they had a good selection of games at fair prices. They have a ton of games, so hopefully they have what you need. They also have a small selection of VHS, tapes, and CDs. The staff left me alone until I needed their help, which I like it that way. read more

Waste of time. Trade in offers are terrible even though they claim "We pay the most" on a big sign on their window. You would get more money literally ANYWHERE else. The employees here are also useless. They care more about their personal conversations rather than the customer experience. And I don't know if it's a certain employee but there is a certain smell... at this location every time I go. Maybe get that checked out too. Do better. read more

Environment was good. Selecton was good. Great video game store to chill and hang out read more

Retro Games Plus - Video Game Stores Near Me - Huntington Beach, California

Retro Games Plus is a hidden gem if you're into old-school gaming. I mainly go for their PS2 selection, and they always seem to have solid titles in good condition, but honestly they've got everything--from classic cartridges to newer consoles. The staff is chill and helpful without hovering, which makes it easy to just browse and take your time. Prices are fair, and the nostalgia factor alone makes it worth stopping by. Definitely a go-to spot if you're trying to build up your collection or just relive some classics. read more

Even though the store is a bit messy, it's a good store to find hidden gems and some older video games.

Pro's: - great service - variety of items Cons : - questionable product condition There are a lot of things that retro games Plus does right-- they have a wide selection of products, customer service is generally prompt, courteous and friendly, so if you're looking for something, they might be able to help you. Unfortunately, some things can't be overcome with good service. I bought what I thought was sealed product, and forgot the core rule of caveat emptor. I've been going here for a while so I left without a second thought, but when I open what I thought was a sealed new product, it turns out that it had been tampered with. The product was a booster pack of collectible cards, and it turned out that whoever sold it to them had opened the pack inside taking the good stuff, and glued it back together in a way such that whatever cards were left were damaged. I went back to the store, hoping that they would be able to understand or do something about it, but the sales clerk simply apologized and took no action to refund. With the full understanding that products are sold as is, and understanding that as a store clerk, they may not have that ability, it's still disturbing that they would sell tampered product as new. Make sure to thoroughly inspect whatever you purchase from here. read more

First time here. My son loves it here and it's a time in the past. Thanks Gustavo for being a helpful and kind to us. We got some Lego figures today and got a pack of Pokémon pack. They have so many cool stuff here. read more

Chris and his store are amazing. Customer service and prices are the best in the area. Plus, they have tons of collectable toys, movies, music, shirts, etc. A must go to for fans of the genre!!! read more

Went here last week and was super impressed with the diversity in console lineup but also the other things I didn't see online when looking for more retro stores around SoCal. In this side quest this place got everything from the obvious consoles and games with a surprising lineup of all from the 7th to now and a decent bit of sega games just missing more 6th gen titles at the moment. They have a set of records vhs/dvds, tcg and even figures and other collectibles as well which kept me browsing for longer than I thought. This place was pretty empty when I came and it deserves more love. Really nice group of guys and the shop is very welcoming. Would definitely make a return trip! read more

Retro games plus stands out from other retro game shops in its wide variety of non-game related nerd stuff, from pop culture clothing to movies, anime, cds and even more obscure formats like laserdisc. Staff are always friendly and very helpful with questions you may have. Prices are also pretty damn good and they regularly have deals/sales. They usually have a great selection of games in stock, as an avid collector for a lot systems i always walk out with at least one game that ive been looking for (along with at least a few dvds too lol). Overall one of the best game shops in orange county! read more

After three years of outstanding service, I finally decided to write a review. Every time I shop here, I'm surprised at all of the amazing deals that I find. I have bought an amazing collection of Xbox 360 games over the years, and it's all thanks to Retro Games. The variety of titles they carry is unbelievable, and the fair prices are unfathomable. They even sell other gaming related items, such as comic books and action figures. The employees greet me every time I walk inside, and they are always helpful with finding exactly what I'm looking for. They are so knowledgeable about games and what to look out for. The quality of their discs are amazing. I've never received a disc that was completely scratched and unplayable. Everything about this place is phenomenal, and I'm so lucky to live so close to it. I cannot recommend them enough! read more

Awesome game store. Great selection of games and consoles. Got a Neo geo cd in pristine condition. Love it!

They have a huge inventory of older games, consoles and accessories. Their staff knows their stuff. They're happy to help if you want to know whats good for your style. The prices were affordable. read more

Friendly customer service, fair prices for trading in Pokémon cards. Would go back again!

I want to like this place, it's close and local, but more often than not I can't find what I am looking for here. Trade in values seem to be about 30% for store credit, kind of meh, not terrible but not really worth it either for higher price items. So instead, the cool finds I want to trade end up on Ebay, even though I would have been happy with 50% of that take. Selection is not really adequate; this is the third or fourth time I've left here disappointed not able to find what should be an easy find at any retro store (and are at others). I wanted to accomplish three things here today, get rid of a copy of Silent Hill 4 (which they don't have in the store currently), and buy a couple Wii motes and GameCube controller. None of that was accomplished. The trade in value (to me) wasn't near worth it for the easy flip that title is, and they had no stock of either controller. read more

What a cool spot. Want to be nostalgic? This is the place. They have so many cool items from the 80s and some are older. Check this spot out! read more

Best place to go in come from Anaheim all the time to conduct business. Everyone is always in a good mood well knowledge on videos videos games and everything retro. I highly recommend this place read more

We were so excited to go home and play with the games we found (that we loved growing up) but when we got home, only one of them worked. We wrongly assumed that because they were SELLING them, that THEY THEMSELVES test out the games before putting them on the shelves. So bummed, lost $20 but the let down hurt more. Won't be returning. read more

Sick store, super unique and they have a lot of what I needed, service was super good, and got a huge bang for my buck

The staff here is so friendly. They have excellent customer service skills which made my purchase very enjoyable. Sean and Angel were amazing I will definitely be back! read more

Ok store for those who like to find older video games. But when I tried selling my cards, they don't take in every yugioh card or pokemon that is even in at least good condition. That is too sell. They are a bit too cheap. There are specialties at okay prices. Need to do better on deals. read more

Retro Games Plus - Video Game Stores Near Me - Huntington Beach, California

Don't call ahead and ask if they have something specific in stock because after you drive 45 minutes out of your way when gas prices are over $5/gal you will find that they not only DO NOT have it in stock, but their "sorry" is followed by "we should have double checked that". You think? I wanted to love this place- it's clean and fairly well organized and stocked. It's customer service isn't even minimal. read more

The most freaking awesome store it's full of cool collectibles and awesome old school games really brings me back to my younger days getting a GameCube game and excited to get home play. read more

Retro Games Plus - So much badass stuff to look through - Video Game Stores Near Me - Huntington Beach, California

Possibly one of the best video game stores ever! The selection there is immense and they never look at you as if you have two heads because you want an "unpopular" game. Everyone there is super friendly. I've never had a single issue with anything I've bought there, ever! read more

I bought a Gamecube from this store. The staff was generally nice, but they do not let you know that the power supplies for consoles are third party. I know I should have checked myself, but it slipped my mind. I had to buy a separate power supply online because the ones they sell cause blurry lines on newer televisions, even with an HDMI converter. The price was okay, but had I known i was gonna have to spend extra money for the power supply i would've gone somewhere else. They do give a discount for one game when you purchase a console which was nice. Would maybe recommend for games, but be sure to ask more questions than i did when buying a console from them. Their memory cards are also third party, but that has not been a problem so far. Overall, the store is nice and has a good inventory of vintage games. read more

I love Retro Games Plus, if nothing else for their excellent selection and pricing on old-school Atari 2600 games. This is one of the few local game stores that I will stop by any time I'm in the area. read more

First off I've been going to the Newington store for as long as I can remember I just left there and the girl working there was paying more attention to her phone then she was to me bringing my items in for trade she barely looked at the items and just asked me to bring them in when the general managers in the store that's it didn't say when to come back or anything read more

Understanding and efficient service will buy again soon with a lot of variety of cards both for yugioh and pokemon

Love this store, they always have what I'm looking for at reasonable prices. Will be sure to continue to visit and support

Great shop. Very cool stuff from floor to ceiling . Tons of video games at great prices. Amazing store for all things gaming and worth a look just for fun. Also vintage clothing and vhs cool items in store too. Must see small business store. Gives u that whoa feeling read more

My autistic son has been banned from selling things to this store. It is very poor customer service to not have any patience or understanding with an adult with autism. They should be ashamed of themselves. He loved selling toys he doesn't want anymore to earn extra money. He is devastated. read more

My son wanted to sell some Pokémon cards and they were very accommodating and insightful. Would recommend highly for anything game related, lots of inventory. read more

They have a lot of good things here and I love the name of this place go show them so good thing and very good people

Been here twice so far since I found this place on Yelp. I stopped by for the first time after surfing last weekend. They have a very good variety of games and better prices than the video game store by my house. Service is friendlier too, and I like that I am left alone to browse in peace. Any time I shop at Game Stop, it seems like a different associate approaches me every 60 seconds. I look forward to coming here when I'm in the area on the weekend to add to my gaming collection. read more
