I'm going to be going to Hawaii on vacation in a couple weeks, and was wondering if there are any cool game stores I should check out when I'm there? I found Toys N Joys (http://www.toysnjoys.com/), but I was wondering if there are any others? Thanks in advance!

According to the input of my map (see sig) Toys N Joys 2 locations are the ones to go to. However if you find any others let me know so I can add it to my map.

Yeah your best bet is Toys N Joys in Kaimuki. The other location is a little smaller. Lots of imports and a pretty large selection of games, mostly from the NES generation and after. They have a lot of anime products as well. Also maybe check the swap meet at Aloha Stadium on the weekend, you never know what you'll find there.

Speaking of swap meets try the drive in swap meet by Pearlridge. I've found a couple of games there, and afterward hit up the Toys N Joys next to it.

I got two games that I can think of while in Hawai'i: R-Type 1 & 2 for Game Boy Color (at a GameStop in a mall, loose), and Atomic Runner at a Salvation Army in Hilo, which is across the street from a section of park which hasn't been in much demand since a tsunami (I think the April 1, 1946 one).

If you do get to Hilo's Salvation Army, see if that C64 is still there (okay, I might be thinking of a C64 in another thrift here in Battle Creek, but it was a keyboard only model).

Which Toys N Joys would this be next to? Thanks in advance!
