Fantastic people working here. All genuine gamers.
I went looking for Zelda: Wind Waker and found it here. The price was a bit steep, but I've been looking in so many places for this game, I didn't care. Many used and retro games and consoles for sale. My favorite part about this place was the service. The people were all super friendly. Got into a conversation about why the Zelda titles are "The Legend of Zelda" and not "The Legend of Link". Fun banter about how the games are really about Zelda, but then why aren't the Mario games called "Super Princess Toadstool". Just really fun people.
Like I said though, the prices are quite high, so make sure you've checked EVERYWHERE else before buying here. They'll have it, but your wallet will feel quite lighter on your way out. -

Much like other non-chain video game stores, the prices at Game City are quite steep. Don't expect any sales like you would find at Futureshop or Best Buy.
But if you're like me, and like to update your old-school gaming collection, then Game City is your store. I was looking for copies of Goldeneye 64 and Banjo-Kazooie, and they had both. I mean, yeah, both were about $50 each (which is crazy considering games of today are $60-$70), but these games are REALLY hard to find and I've seen them go for even more. Okay, they did have an N64 with an Expansion Pak for $110, which was quite ridiculous to be honest. They even had an Intellivision (which is from the early 80's I believe) in perfect shape. Lord knows how much that would have cost.
I wish I could list all the of classics I found at Game City, but I would probably break Yelp.
But yeah, when it comes to more recent games, don't waste your time here. Just go to EB or BestBuy, and you'll probably get a better deal. If you're looking for the old-school and obscure, go right in! They also give cash or in-store credit for games and DVDs, which is great. -

Game City is a used-game store and has a huge selection of old games and carry some of the hardest to find titles.
They carry old gaming systems like sega genisis and super nintendo as well as old school games. It's a great store for anyone that is into collecting or even wants to play these games again.
The prices aren't low. They are unusually high for a used game store but some of the classics are worth it.
