I was just wondering if anyone knew some good games store around the twin cities st.paul or minneapolis. Now there are 3 different gamestops all within 5min from me so im lookin for something different, some place with retro games all the way back to nes or even atari. I've found a few place that sell retro games but they had like 30nes games and like 8snes games, which really wasn't a great selection had zero games i actually wanted of the 30-40 games they had. Anyone around minneapolis or in minneasota know any good retro games stores with a good selection?

I was in Minneapolis less than a year ago and I remember there being a retro-game kiosk in the Mall of America.

It's called Game Central. There's also one at Southdale. I've been there a few times. The prices aren't likely as good as you'll find online, but the people that work there are cool.
There's also Games N Go in Brooklyn Park and Rosedale Center. I haven't been there though. I don't have a car, and going to Rosedale on the bus from my place in downtown Minneapolis is at least an hour trip. There's no way I'd take the bus to Brooklyn Park by choice.
If you just want to play games, Chatterbox (has a couple of different locations) is a pretty cool place. SS Billiards in Hopkins has a few retro video games, but is more notable for having the best pinball selection in the area.
