Uptown Gaming & Collectibles

★★★★★

“Great little shop. The girl working was friendly and polite (I feel like this isn’t always the norm). Pokemon selection of singles was a lot bigger than I expected. Other metro stores don’t seem to have as much available or they price them unfairly. I didn’t trade anything in on my visit this time, but I imagine they’d offer a fair comp since they’re pricing based on TCGplayer. I got some nice art cards for the price and there was a ton of bulk and lower priced dollar EX etc cards available too. Lots of video games available as well. Will be nice when the retail market for pokemon settles down so it’s available here too closer to MSRP (or at all).”

“I always have an amazing experience when I visit Uptown Gaming! I just brought in my childhood GameCube to get a major deep clean and new wires for it, it looks spotless, thank you so much!! It was pretty bad from storage and years of love as a kid, I’m very impressed they even got the 15 year old marker graffiti off the shell. I wasn’t even sure if it still worked, it made my day to know that it still ran, Thank you again Uptown !!”

“This is a great little shop! I do mean little... about the size of the average living room. Its owner is a gamer and a collector. They've got a great selection of games and consoles. I'm not into card games, but they've got them, too. It also looks like they repair gaming consoles too. The staff is great to talk to and very knowledgeable. It's definitely worth a stop when you're in town like I was or several stops if you live in town. I'll definitely be back.”
