Their prices are fair for the inventory they have. For collectors its a scary paradise. If your looking for newer stuff they have it at normal prices and have way better selection than most electronics dept. Another danger store...
Went in to look at buying a Nintendo switch, have no clue as to what any of these game consoles do. But the gentleman there was very pleasant and helpful. The selection of games is by far better than gamestop! I will come back here to buy games for the kiddos!
Its a nice addition to Fort Collins an has a good growing collection of games.
Absolutely amazing! Nostalgia incoming! Very friendly, helpful and knowledgeable staff. 10/10!
What a great place! It has a bunch of games and game related stuff, and has some pretty cool old ones too. Its a little small, but it manages to get a lot in. A good stop for anyone who enjoys games, board, video, DnD style, etc.
They have a great selection of old and new games but like many other places like game stop they can be pretty proud of their vintage games regardless I was impressed with them
This place is amazing. Great selection of games. All the usual ones youd expect but baby I havent seen in the wild for years (the standout for me was ngage games).Employee working while I browsed was very polite and knowledgeable. They werent pushy at all, and helps with all the questions (there was someone shopping who had a dozen or so questions and they answered everything and listened to the customer).I bought a couple items and an very happy with them, the service I got, and the overall selection. This will be a place I regularly visit when Im in town.
Good prices on used games and the staff are helpful. Theres a lot of stock so its part game store, part video game museum. They have a military discount for veterans. Best game store in Northern Colorado.
Not bad, not great. They had a relatively small selection of good games. Lots of filler stuff. Any of the good games were a bit overpriced. Condition of a lot of what they do have is not great, broken cases, damaged art/manuals. I did find a couple okay things at typical prices. One really good find is they have some posters printed on a sort of cardboard. I found a Skyrim one that is excellent. There were some other good ones like Zelda as well. These were priced decently as well. I believe $11. Another thing I liked is some of the older games like NES came with replacement cases with the original artwork on them. Nice touch.
Between the selection and the customer care this place may not have what youre looking for right now but they will go through their other stores inventory to find it.
Great staff and more selection than anywhere in town.
Great selection of old games that are hard to find elsewhere. Fair prices plus the staff are friendly and helpful.
Always a pleasure, while prices may be high it makes sense. Its almost like being spoiled to have access to all these retro games at a local store
They had what I was looking for and were very helpful and kind.
Very nice staff. Havent been in the old game scene for awhile. So pricing Im not sure if their on it or not. But nice selection.
Amazing store! Great selection of consoles, games, collectibles and more. Their selection is truly staggering. Come try this place out, youll probably find something you cant leave without getting.
Pretty cool little shop! As other commenters have pointed out its hard to leave without finding something that you didnt even realize was going to spark up a long lost memory.Reasonable prices, great selection, and a relaxed atmosphere.
They definitely take care of ya, there patients is amazingAnd customer service was on point
Lots of old games for older systems! Recommend checking this place out!
Tons of games, both old and new. Great and friendly service. Fun and safe environment.
Great customer service and staff. Games ahoy is a great place to buy or sell your used or new games and consoles
I love this place, super friendly employees and always have a good mixtures of popular, obscure, and rare games. Only ever had one issue of buying a game at the south store with no disc in it. But they jumped and fixed the issue as soon as they were aware of it
Girls here are awesome and always help me get what I came looking for thanks for being you!
Nice selection with a friendly staff who knows what they’re talking about and are not pushy in trying to make a sale. I will absolutely be visiting here again!
Was a great old school styled game store with a wide range of new and classic games and systems one of the best game stores IV been in before
Location - 5/5Product Quality/Selection - 4/5 (Plenty of Popular and Obscure Products to Choose from. Mostly decent condition)Customer Service 2/5 (Lack of Knowledge & an Unwillingness to be Helpful. The Employees at times seem to be bothered about having to do anything)Price/Deals - 1/5 (Lackluster Deals & A Commitment to Capitalize on Nostalgia with Price Hikes)Checkout Time 2/5 (At times the Employees are to Preoccupied with their Conversation to Properly/Professionally complete the Checkout Process)I would say they should focus on providing a better experience for the customer and displaying a proper level of professionalism. Also there tends to be times where there is a rather pungent odor that engulfs the store.
Retro gaming at its best
Excellent selection of games both old and new. Also have board games, card games, movies, toys, and asian candies and drinks! A true Nerd paradise!!!
Always great service. The people have without fail been amazing every time Ive been in. Incredible selection in store, and fair trade in value.
Staff is always super helpful, & you can tell they love their jobs. Lots of choices with video games, board & tabletop games, & movies. One of our favorite places to shop!
Friendly staff and great selection! Had some questionable policies in the past but they seem to have cleaned up and became a quality store. Check them out for sure when game shopping. They even have a bunch of games in 日本語!
Fun to browse for classic games and systems. They also had a new accessory I needed.
This place its self is great the staff on the other hand is absolutely horrible. The general manager she called herself whose name is Courtney Lynn was rude and nasty. They told me it was a law that my 3 year old had to wear a mask. First of all its not a law and second children under the age of 10 are not required to wear a mask. They told me to pull mine over my nose or I had to leave. Sorry I have a breathing condition and at least I have a mask on. When I asked to speak to the owner she told me yo get out and would not allow me to speak to anyone. She was rude to me in front of my children anf lost the business a lot of money. We had intended on going in and spending a lot of money for my sons new game room. Now I will no longer shop here as long as that girl works there. The owner should be aware of the way his employees are treating people but they would not even allow me to speak with him. What a poor way to handle business.
The people that work at Games Ahoy are always very friendly and very helpful!
Employees are always kind and helpful.
Decent staff, fair prices on used games, plenty of new and retro video games and consoles, its a true nerd heaven. Why the three stars then? My issue comes to their Magic selection. The North Store has all of their expensive stuff in a certain binder and use TCGPlayer to price their cards, which concerning the big online sellers like TCG or Starcity or Card Kingdom I actually prefer TCG because their prices are usually the lowest. Problem is this store in particular doesnt sell most of the things in that binder for market price, usually above. I wont specify when I came in but one card I purchased that had a market price of 44 dollars was sold to me for 65, a 23 dollar card sold for 35, etc. Its not the total end of the world, I still like coming here whenever I shop for anything gaming wise and I realize the owners/managers can sell whatever they have for whatever price, but I was essentially charged 30 or 40 more than I really should have been for my purchase. Its something that just sours my experience with this store in particular, if I really wanted to spend that much money Id go to Grand SlamOne thing I will give props on however is the mask policy, it seems like most places I go a great majority of people ignore the face covering requirements but at both stores its truly a no shirt no shoes no service kind of experience, and in todays world I really do appreciate that
Great and wonderful place for gaming needs. Helpful and nice staff.
My brother try to ask the girl out but didnt get a number but they have cool games plus they have these really cool gummies that I enjoyed
Large selection of games at a great price. Staff is very friendly!!
Way over hyped and overpriced
Great place for new an old school retro games
The green haired lady was great she helped me with my game exchamge
They have a great selection of retro and modern games and the people working there are helpful, kind and knowledgeable.
Best place to find all your gaming needs. I visit alot.
Really nice staff. Awesome selection on super nintendo and pretty good selection on Nintendo 64.
Great service and a lot of games at good prices. Worth checking out PS2 games. Good game store for sure.
Friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful staff. If they havent had what I was looking for, theyve taken the time to call their other stores to see if they can find it. You can sit there and talk about most things video game with any one of them, their knowledge has always surprise me
Great store with a great set-up, super easy to find what youre looking for. The staff is friendly and very knowledgeable. I found their prices to be very reasonable as well. I think what really solidifies this store as a go-to is their selection. I struggled to find so many classics and they had them all in the store. Perfect place for gifts and reliving gamings glory days.
Very impressive store, selection, and staff. They offer more than you might expect in cash or store credit for your more interesting retro or current gen titles.
Usually have what I or my kids need/want.. Cool place. Way better then Game stop...
They purchased a controller from me via eaby. They broke the controller and used ebay return policy to return it broken. These people are extremely dishonest.To your reply: This is amazing how you changed your history 4 times on ebay and not you are saying it was broken while it was being ship. AS I SAID EXTREMELY DISHONEST PEOPLE at games Ahoy. I hope Karma catches up with you.
Really good selection for lots of different consoles and the employees are always super friendly
Great game store with a large variety of classic games and consoles, up to current gen systems. Also have a good selection of collectible/pop-culture items and even some Japanese imports.
So grateful! They had exactly what we were looking for... and so much more! Great service great prices! Highly recommend :-)
Friendly and knowledgeable staff. The store is very organized and clean. Pricing is are fair and most often are lower than competitors. Great selections for all systems.
Great place to get old used games and systems. New used prices can be laughable. But employees here do what they can help find what youre looking for and to give you information in the gaming world. Also a place to sell any games that you game that are still in good condition.
If I cant make it down to Game Force in Longmont, this place is next on my list. Always great service so far and they have a decent selection on games. They do however try to maximize their profit and price some games extraordinarily high which is fair considering the rarity of some games. I only gave 4 stars because I havent been coming in long enough yet.
Super friendly staff, wide selection and great return / exchange policy on used stuff!
Competitive prices, and a HUGE selection! Like shopping online, but you get to go home with it right then. Better for older games than newer, but they still have a broad modern selection. They also have a copy of mother 2 in the box at both locations!
Love them. Theyre local and way better than game stop. Theres real nerds here and thats exactly as it should be. They sell some weird candy and geeky trinkets too and usually have an old school arcade system set up to play. Super friendly staff, good prices and while Ive never sold them a game Ive heard they give a healthy amount of money for used games. Check them out if you havent already. :)
As a fan of old video games, this store is a blessing. The fact that young players can purchase vintage consoles, working games, and original accessories at an affordable price is incredible. Best of all, you can also pre-order and purchase titles for current day platforms just like at any other store, while also feeling good about supporting a local store and not a national chain. The customer service is always friendly and knowledgeable.
They have EVERYTHING an if the dont theyll help you find it
Good selection and great prices. One of the best collection of n64 games I have seen for sale in Northern Colorado, although those can get pricy as one might imagine. Great customer service and great variety of PS2 games (what Im there for) as well. All around great little shop, I highly recommend stopping by for a visit if you are into gaming.
Very helpful and friendly staff with a good selection of new and used games and consoles.
So, Im editing a previously negative review into a positive one, as the stores owner reached out to me and made a previous situation right. Through a miscommunication in my friend group two people bought the same game for the same person, and I found myself needing to return a game I purchased here.I initially had some issues with the stores return policy, and I had to jump through some hoops to make my return, but thankfully I worked it out with the stores owner, and everything is back in order.I would like to thank the owner for their generosity and the employee Mike for providing me excellent service throughout all this. Thank you both.I can happily say that Im back to being a happy customer and I recommend this store for the wide selection of older games, the friendly staff, and the understanding owner.I would still advise caution when dealing with the stores finicky return policy though!
Super cool selection of video games from the past to present.
Always honest answers to my questions here. I always buy from here if I can. Its the least I can do for the confidence I have for the staffs ample experience with all things gaming! Its where I tell my kids to to when they want to research their next purchase. Sure they can can go to a national chain store, but those guys always have an agenda to sell, not always to serve their customers.
If you are looking for a great place to find Old/Rare games, this is it. Everything in the store is reasonably priced because they know what things are worth. You wont see things overpriced for something bad or underpriced for something extremely great. Trading games in is also an excellent process, getting reasonable prices for your stuff while also being given a guarantee that youre purchases work. I drive about 1.5 hours from my house to go here and it is worth the trip every time.
The place is great, if their location doesnt have something theyll call the sister one or give recommendations for where you might find it. They want you to get what you want.
Best retro game store in all of north Colorado. Selection is amazing and the staff is always the best here.
Great retro game store. A wide variety of games, systems and related. Always happy to support local.
One of my favorite places ever. I go here and look around when Im happy or sad or if I just have some free time before my classes. There are magic cards, comic books, figures, extra rare items, and games for every system. There are games in box that are usually resealed to look and feel nice. The games without cases are in binders and 40% off which is amazing. The staff is very knowledgeable and so nice. And best of all its local!
Awesome store with a LOT of vintage and new games! Staff is very friendly and helpful.
These folks rock! Called late one night during quarantine and got a call back in the morning. Shop and support local yall.
I called ahead to check if they had what I wanted, they did have it in stock! So I put it on hold and drove the hour. I walk in, had some items for trade, I was asked to wait roughly 10 minutes so the two guys behind the counter could finish their game ofsmash, which kind of immediately turned me off as a new customer, not a good first impression. So after waiting, they inform me that the item was put on hold for someone else and I would not be able to purchase the item, even after driving an hour, and the guy claimed to remember the convo. Anyways, I ended up driving(Again) to the other store in town and they should have what I need.Huge waste of time, no care for their customers or their time, I will not set foot in store again.
I get taken to a lot of game stores by a friend, but this one is probably one of the best stocked, friendliest ones that Ive been to
Great selection and friendly service
Lisa was super helpful and super hot. Will by more from here and so should everyone else.
Very snazzy. Lots of old cool gaming thingys
I always love stopping by this place. So much nostalgia. They also sell new games.
An amazing shop with dedicated and knowledgeable gamers to help with any question. They have tons of games for every system and lots of merchandise to go with it. The rare stuff does have collector pricing, but Thats nothing to scoff at, as its still better than auctions for the most part. Definitely worth a visit.
Cool beans
Great new games, amazing selection of used games, and a friendly great group of knowledgeable gamers to help me find what I want.
Very knowledgeable and friendly staff! I traded in a fair amount of games and few consoles and got a way better price than any other store I had looked at! You can get cash or in-store credit as well, which I really appreciated!
The best video game and DVD store know to man! Ive traded there before and i got instore credit. The staff are extremely nice they are very welcoming. Very nice environment very clean well kept. If I could I would rate this store 10/10. --P
We had a great dealing with the guys at Games Ahoy! Super genuine guys and really seemed to want to get you the best deal! Highly recommend them!
A great gaming and collectors store. The staff was knowledgable and helpful. It has really good bargains as well as some more expensive pieces.
Excellent especially if you need old or hard to find games and accessories.
It was a fresh breath of air to see game stores that sale retro gaming consoles, games Nd accessories. The staff was nice and knowledgeable.
This little game shop is great! They have games and accessories for every console from Atari to PS4. The prices are fair and the service is very friendly. They buy, sale, and trade so dont forget to bring in some old games to get credit toward your purchase!
Cool stuff at good prices but if you want to sell something like figures, they wont tell you that they only take them if theyre worth 50 or more until you get there. Apparently, the concept of saying that over the phone perplexes their employees. I asked repeatedly what the price range of products they buy is and got the same useless answer repeatedly from different employees. Not the brightest staff at this location.
Very well organized, large selection,kind and knowledgeable staff. Prices are competitive to private sellers. Will be a regular customer.
Very good game selection, the place is just as good as the south location.
Best game store around! Beats out Lame Stop at every corner. Staff is super friendly and always super helpful, the only problem is they always have something I want! They have everything from NES to PS4 and XBox 1, even magic cards and a good selection of quality game guides.
Friendly, lots of games, reasonable prices. Great atmosphere honestly.
Really like this store. Awesome selection, and I almost always find something interesting often for a reasonable price. Not five star because of their wacky return policy. You have two days to get credit and 90 days for a working guarantee where they ostenibly help you get the game to work. I had an issue with a disc that wouldnt boot, returned it the next day for credit. Had no problem eventually spending the credit, but still a negative when general Amazon seller return policy is 30 day refund.
I like the place cause everytime I walk in here i get a hello. Friendly smiling faces on both male and female employees. I went in to buy animal crossing, and was amazed by the knowledge of games from the young lady that helped me.
