Well, I am going to take these into advisement considering I'm currently looking for Higurashi for the DS, so thanks for the suggestions

Haha, I ran a gaming center in Fort Collins called Game On. It is now completely defunct and it looks like those guys re-registered the name for business. GO is okay, it's definitely got that "we're 20-something and we're trying to run a business but also living in the back" feel. Hopefully the market for a LAN center keeps bringing them business, I remember how much it cost to keep my store updated with the latest software and hardware; it's not a forgiving business model.

Aww, what a ringing endorsement! I totally live in the back of the store.

I work at GamerZ Planet in Grand Junction, CO where we sell all the old games and new games from the Atari to the wii. We are a local owned business and have a lot of the old systems in stock for good prices like the Atari 2600 to the turbo grafix and others.

There is always buy-back games as well. There is another franchise operation called Game Xplosion too.

Well, I work for GameXplosion and I can tell you as a gamer, it is the place to go for all your gaming needs. I remember when i first stumbled upon the shop in early 2008 and was lucky enough to get a job there the following month. We are a Locally owned business and currently have two locations. One is in Broomfield off of 120th ave and Sheridan, while the other is located in aurora off of tower and hampden.

If you would like some more info please visit the website:

Then I whole heartedly recommend them.  Lots of selection of games and table top games.   Also a good selection of Anime and Anime related items.   They have been a dealer at NDK for a couple years now.

Game Trader wasn't at the con this year and won't be at the next one, either.


Does anyone know of that new used (hah!) game store in Colorado Mills?  They have games going back to the Atari.  Even some cheesy martial arts movies.  It's pretty cool.
