Title: Any good stores around this area? Post by: Samada on May 30, 2007, 04:37:15 PM I hope this is the right board, if not, please move it.
I am going to be driving with my parents to Kansas City from Albuquerque tomorrow, which is like a 13 hour drive. I was wondering if anyone knew of any good stores or pawn shops that have some old games (NES, SNES, etc.). I believe we are driving a little through Oklahoma too. So, anyone live in between Albuquerque or Kansas City and know of any good stores? Thanks. Title: Re: Any good stores around this area?

If your able to, try and stop by any of them.
Sorry, that's the best I can do. I live in Texas and have only been thru Kansas City twice, both during the nite. Title: Re: Any good stores around this area?

There don't really seem to be any nonchain gaming stores in the Port A, Aransas Pass, Corpus Christi area. But to be honest i haven't been able to really drive around and hunt or look thru phonebooks for numbers. I am going to take the search online idea and see what i can pull up now :) Title: Re: Any good stores around this area? Post by: Samada on June 06, 2007, 01:08:31 AM Well, I got back the other day and I didn't find anything. I saw a bunch of garage sales (a lot of them where at some wealthy houses). Sadly, no games. Oh well, hopefully you find some stuff Izret.

One of the guys i use to work with claimed to have a 2600 with about 100 games that he has had since he was a kid. Said he loved the games and still played them. It would be cool to luck out and find something good :) Title: Re: Any good stores around this area? Post by: Samada on June 06, 2007, 06:19:37 PM I got my 2x Atari 2600's with about 26 games for $10 at a huge flea market/circus/drive-in movie theatre in Florida a few years back. He even through in a duffle bag for me to carry it home on the plane.
Did I mention it included E.T. >.< |
