Anybody notice that there are no New york stores on this list? Does anyone know of any?
How ironic that I just went to VideoGamesNewYork on Friday. It is about a 15 minute walk from Union Square, or you can get off the R at 8th St. if you are making a trip specifically for the store.
https://www.videogamesnewyork.com/the_storeI had heard of the store and I finally decided to stop by because I had a few hours to kill waiting for a flight. I would say that since it was in NYC, the prices were actually kind of fair. Of course, as with most stores, they ranged from deals (some DS games) to absurd (most consoles), but you just need to pick out the deals.
There was a decent little TG16/PCE selection. Their pricey game was a CIB Bonk 3 for $299, but there were a lot of more reasonably priced more common games.
I bought a Pokémon Soul Silver and Henry Hatsworth for DS when I was there, nothing too exciting. However, the store is quite cramped and I thought that Hatsworth was $5, when in fact it was $15... my poor eyesight and inability to contort my body leading to the confusion. Store worker was cool in that he offered the game to me for $10.
I'll stop by again if I have more free time next time I am in NYC for work.
