A large and clean game store for all your play needs…read more Atomic Empire is a game store for all physical gamers, be it trading cards, board games, wargames, or pen and paper games. They have a selection of games to try out and plenty of sitting space for you and your friends to test out and have a good time. They offer a wide variety of singles on their website. By buying them and picking it up in store, you save on shipping, giving them the selection of an online retailer with lower costs. Their prices are most comparable to TCGPlayer, minus delivery fees. Atomic Empire also carries a limited selection of comics and graphic novels, a nice to have for sure. They also sell plenty of gaming accessories from dice to paint to playmates to deck boxes. Unlike many game stores I've been to, Atomic Empire is pristine. High ceilings and proper ventilation provides constant fresh air. Bright lights and clean floors provides a welcoming atmosphere. It's a pleasure to take your time and browse a store that's so well maintained. Atomic Empire is excellent to game in or simply hang out at.

The bald guy treated me like a criminal looking at cards. The whole experience is very uncomfortable and the people are standoffish. Why work here if you're miserable? Not sure if it's because of race, but Ive never felt this uncomfortable at another card collectible store in this area. Only the blonde and blue-haired girl are always nice.

Our son loves the figurines, anime collectibles, video games and more. Their record collection is amazing and diverse. We have never had an issue with any of them. And Alec is always sure to remind us that if we do he will honor a refund anytime Alec and Adele and the whole crew have become friends who not only care for our family in pointing out things we may be interested in but also sharing successes and plans for the business. This shop is a bright light in town and a regular stop for us. If you haven't been make a trip and enjoy the nostalgia! Be sure to say hi to Alec!

Store is much cooler than the outside of it…read more Cool store that has throw back games and other items. They do have several games and gaming systems you can play in person. They do have some records and other items as well. I did pick up some pins/buttons up front to put on my work lanyard. Staff were friendly and very helpful. Didn't mind answering questions. If you're in that area of Wake Forest you should stop by.

Definitely an awesome spot to check out if you're ever in NC. The staff truly made the visit even better. You can tell they enjoy what they do, and their energy adds so much to the atmosphere. The store itself is also really pretty and stays clean, which makes browsing even more enjoyable.

TLDR: Excellent anime shop in Raleigh. Large selection of anime, manga, and k-pop…read more I was so excited to hear about Animazed opening in Raleigh. This shop offers a wide selection of anime merchandise, manga, k-pop, and snacks. The small, yet long shop is packed with items. Many of the items I have seen before at anime conventions and the prices are similar. Pricier than you can find online. However I like the benefit of purchasing these items at a local shop year round rather than online or at annual conventions. The store is fairly organized. They have a large amount of merchandise and organize it by anime and item type with a few mixed bins. Manga is in the middle, figurines and posters along the walls, candy in the front to the left, etc. Most of the items are price marked. Prices seemed to be missing from the pillows and blankets. Overall it is a unique shop filling a niche missing from Raleigh previously.

Every time I pop through I always leave with a handful of Xbox games for a cheap price tag. Absolutely recommend this spot. What makes it icing on the top is the fact it's a local, small business.

I've never had any problems with my games not working, but the way Jeremy runs his business, if I did I know things would get fixed promptly. I highly advise giving GamesturzRetail a chance! 5 Gaming Stars out of 5!

They had bumper cars that our 1yr could be a passenger in, so we all got to ride in the bumpers. (2 adults 2 toddlers). They also had an arcade which had some cool games and the price wasn't bad. We did a combo which came with a game card so that was cool. The toddler play area offered 2 hours of fun for the toddlers with its slides, obstacles courses, ball pit, and swings. Our kids had a blast and we were able to go down the slides with our 1yr old. Great place for them to burn energy. We only ordered drinks and mozzarella sticks so i cant speak for the whole menu , but what we ordered was good. Only thing i didn't see was any of the staff disinfecting the gokarts, arcade/vr area, bumpercars, or play area.
