I choose my game shops largely based on interactions with the staff. They can make or break your experience. Mikey was incredibly inviting and upbeat - definitely made us want to come back! O - Opportunity to meet other people that love to game. Rockhopper drew a pretty decent crowd for being open such a short time. Can't wait to see it on a busy day. C - Commander nights on Saturdays and Tuesdays starting at 4pm. Most places start later and make it tough to work into your schedule. This is a huge win for me. K - Knowledge. There is nothing worse than a game store owner that knows nothing about games. Mikey had all the information pertaining to games, sets, scheduling, and his clientele. He's a real one. H - Hangover commander. Yes. Sundays are the day for hangover commander, D&D, and whatever else people are feeling like after a rough Saturday night. We love to see it. O - Open to everyone. As they should be. Happy Pride Month! P - Penguin theme. Self explanatory. P - Pretty good selection of comics, singles, board games, and other various game related items. E - Environment. The location and the vibe were very cool to us. It's nice to have a gaming location outside of the cities that is doing everything right! R - Raffles. Always fun. To conclude: we were pumped to find this spot. I'm curious to see how they'll handle busy times as it's a bit on the smaller side - but I imagine they'll have it all figured out. If I can order singles to this store - it's game over. Go check it out!

This store is one of those "best kept secret" stores that has the great deals on comics and…read morecollectible toys you would want in a specialty shop. The store is also a gaming store that seems to specialize in Magic: the Gathering and Dungeons & Dragons. This past few months has seen major changes in the diversity of merchandise offered. The game store seems to have one of the best selections of gaming miniatures in the area. And recently started to offer paints and everything a budding hobbyist would need. There is a small gaming area where gamers rub elbows as a handful of games could be going on at once. I'm not sure if it is intentional, but the comfortable vibe and excitement overheard about the latest merchandise Is a nostalgic nod to the game stores of the 80s and 90s. The owner is dedicated to the comic and gaming business. He's always there to answer questions, hunt for any special requests or offer a recommendation. Overall, a solid store that is taking strides to be even better. It would be worth checking into this "best kept secret" because it is a fabulous locally-owned business worth supporting.

This is a wonderful little corner bookstore on the west side of Central Park. For such a small…read morelocation they have an incredible amount of inventory. In addition to books there are magazines, comic books, calendars, and puzzles. The owner is very nice and he's almost always the person working there. Like myself, he's a big history fan, and has given me several good suggestions when I've been looking for a new book. I would expect him to know a lot about books, but when I mention a title, he speaks about it like he's read it. He probably has. I've been buying books here for years. Typically I use Amazon to research titles and reviews, and then go to this store to buy it. It's rare that there isn't a copy on hand, and if not they will have it there quickly. These small bookstores are need to be supported.

I was hesitant to stop by the store due to one of the reviews below (not recommended by Yelp) and…read moreI've had some bad experiences with collection stores in the past too (I'm an avid classic gaming collector and I collected Magic/Comics years ago). Very glad I ignored that bad review and stopped by for a visit. Amazing store, good selection, great/friendly owner. The first thing you'll notice when you walk in the store is the DVD collection. They have a huge inventory. I'm not a big collector of DVD's so I can't really comment on the prices or selection. However, they have a ton, they are well organized, and I'm sure if you are looking for movies this would be a great place to come. I was really impressed with their collection of Board Games. I've always wanted to try some of the challenging games like The Settlers of Catan (which the store had an entire collection), but have always shied away because of the price (I'd hate to buy a game I know very little about and find out that I don't like them). Next time I'm in the store, I'll ask the owner about them and find out more information. I mainly checked out the store today for their Graphic Novels and Comics. I haven't collected in years and I just wanted to pick up a few good books for their stories. The owner helped me find the Walking Dead comics I wanted and pointed out some books he highly recommended. The store has a wall of "guaranteed" books, in which they'll buy the book back if you don't like them. In addition to that, they offer a buy 10 and get 1 free card. I only glanced quickly at their video games because I was in a hurry and had already spent a good amount of time talking to the owner. I like my games in mint condition with boxes and manuals. Most of the titles seemed to be loose carts (I'm talking about older stuff), so this might not be the best selection for hard-core collectors, but they had a large selection for people just interested in a good game. The best part of the store is the owner. You can always find collectables cheaper online (don't forget online stores don't have overhead like rent), but you come to places like this for the customer service. You can tell Jim loves what he does and is excited to share it with others. There's so much stuff out there to buy that it is really nice to have stores like Jimmyjams for suggestions. Great clean and organized store. I'll be back when I'm in town.

I'm not in…read morethe area much these days (the single lane traffic, traffic in general and parking in uptown is for sure a full time extreme sport). My mom loves cats and immediately when we walked in she was already picking up little trinkets and whatnot to buy. I loved the wall of gumball machines and the overall humor in the names of them. They even offer a loyalty punch card with more fun on the back of the card. They did have a room of comic books as well as a workshop room which is cool. They had a room in the back of the store with vintage items & more mature items like magazines, art, trinkets & more. In the main room they had trinkets, art, shirts, stickers and lots of fun stuff. Generally a lot of nostalgic stuff with a bit of an artsy twist. It's for sure worth checking out. Staff were nice. Someone overheard me asking my mom for a quarter to get gum (I don't carry cash or coins at all) and gave me and my mom a quarter which was very nice. For sure bring some quarters!! Generally enjoyed checking out this shop!

The staff is always really happy to be there and share their fantastic (in the most literal sense) shirts, posters, books, art, and anything else you can imagine. It's a bit pricey for some stuff but I'm happy to pay it as I'm supporting local makers and helping to keep creativity alive in my city. If you like unique, kitschy stuff, supporting the community, or are a weirdo in general, you'll love this hidden gem.

It's not every day you stumble across a video game store with the old school cool stuff like ATARI,…read moreSEGA, etc. The front of the store was current console games, and the further back you went, the further back in history you went... to the 1990's, the 1980's... I grew up in that era so I was stoked to see so many old familiar titles on display. I will say the place felt almost more like a museum or a hobbyist's den than a store, lol. Not a lot of obvious price tags on much of the older stuff; clearly if you were interested in purchasing, you'd need to get the help of an employee. Most of it was either behind glass or on an inaccessible shelf as well. Which makes a certain sense, because these are collector's pieces at this point that require careful handling. You don't want any kid wandering in and messing with a game cartridge worth $100+. I didn't buy anything while there, but it was really fun to marvel and take it all in like a sightseer, or time traveler haha. It was a pretty large store (at least double the footprint than GameStop) and there were plenty of fun decorations on the walls or hanging from the ceiling. Lots of arcade cabinets and such. Anyway, they must be doing okay because this is their newest secondary location. I'll have to stop by the original in Shakopee sometime.
