Title: Road trip!
Post by: shaggy on May 31, 2015, 06:24:20 PM
So in July my family and I are going on a road trip.  We are leaving WI, going to Atlanta, than to Orlando, back to Atlanta, on to Tennessee, to Indianapolis, and back to WI.  Any video game stores along the way anyone know of? :)  Or anyone near those places who want to give me some NES games? :laugh:

There are Disc Replays in Indiana from Terre Haute to Indianapolis.  Bloomington, IN has Game Worlds that are decent in selection available.  Both game stores are worth checking out.  There are a few mom and pops but you have to hunt for them.

Disc Replay and Game World is what I think Duke told me about.  Maybe if there is time I can find the mom and pop ones.

Are you gonna pass near Erie, PA? If so, free lodging, a few doubles from our collection, and a decent retro store or two are what we can offer. :)

Yea, I know. If I wasn't going with the family I would stop and meet you guys.  My wife has everything already planned out so I doubt I'll even get a break to go to a store but we will see.

I actually live pretty close to Atlanta, but unfortunately I can't point you towards any good game stores that I know of.  I doubt you will, but if you happen to pass through Athens GA, there is actually a pretty cool game store just off the UGA campus.

Checked where Atlanta is compared to Athens and not along the way. :(

 From Atlanta we are going to Orlando.

On the way back to Atlanta a Canadian cut me off.  I swear it was either techwizard or crabby.

You sure it wasn't EngineerMike or Fleach? They both seem to have short fuses lately.

Unless you were cut off by a Cessna 172 it wasn't me, I don't drive ;)

Man, Florida has tons of thrifts and flea markets.  Unfortunately, I couldn't go to any.  😔
