Salesman talked me out of buying a Gamecube from the store and instead sold me a Wii system to play both. The Wii does not work. It wont accept discs from either system and flickers heavy on the screen. You want to represent small business game stores instead of big chains like Gamestop, try making sure your equipment works before selling it to a customer.Permanently closed. good
Its closed permanently. Dont waste your time.
Came here to get my PS3 fixed. You have to pay $12.50 for dismantling fee but it goes towards the repair. However, it turned out that they couldnt fix it and offered me a full refund. While it sucked that they couldnt fix it, I appreciated their friendliness and their professionalism throughout the process.
First time shopper in this family operated game store today and I was lucky enough to find a PS3 compatible headset for my kiddo. I had zero luck finding this item online and Im BEYOND thankful they had it in stock (last one too)! Thank you! Youve earned a new local loyal customer.
I love this store and its owners are very kind people. Its sad to hear that they are going out of business soon. Please support them while you can. Never once have I had a bad experience here.
These guys are phenomenal . Wide variety of old and new consoles REASONABLY PRICED. Look no further than game trader . Angel and David are always helpful .Need consoles repaired ? They do that!Need console insides cleaned? THEY DO THAT.Bottom line ? Best pricing in town and amazing staffing.Look no further. This is the shop.
The gentleman was professional and easy to talk to. He was also very knowledgeable about different aspects of console repair. Coupled with his honesty and ability to communicate it was an all around great experience.
Just moved to the area, found this place via Google. I went out of my way to check out this little store specifically because it is family owned and operated. I was very impressed by the store’s layout as well as the friendly customer service, and even moreso after I arrived back home as I opened the console I purchased. Down to tiny detail, I can tell the console has been meticulously cleaned, and most likely repaired/inspected internally as well. It works like a charm. You’ve made a loyal customer out of me for sure. Thanks!
I dropped off my grandsons xboxone for repairs. Replaced harddrive and was returned same day. Great service and very good prices. Will definitely use these guys again
Terrible service!! the owner took my PS4 apart to see if it was fixable he said yes. I said come back when I have the money. then when I came back to pay for my repair he told me that I had took it apart and try to fix it myself then denied my service. Honestly I think it was because I was black
This place is awesome! They repair game consoles, and sell older games as well! Service was great, and staff is friendly and very knowledgeable! Currently getting my PS2 fixed...the Super Nintendo and Nintendo 64 are next!
Loved this place!!! The gentleman was so helpful and patient when I took in my PS4 to get repaired. They have so many games from new ones, to even some classics that I couldnt even find at Bookmans. Highly recommend.
There is no better place for games. I love these people. Been going there for years. Wont trust nobody else. Ask for Kevin the manager best guy in the business
The customer service is excellent. Most of the staff members have top-notch knowledge. At times, if they dont know an answer, they will ask a colleague or even call one of the owners, Dave, on the spot if they dont know the answer. Only one guy is pretty shy, doesnt say much, I think he is a new face so maybe new. Now that my son is older and talks to staff himself, Id say they show him respect and are kind.If you have serious questions about consoles and the industry, talk to Dave. Angel, the other owner, has done some magic with repairs of consoles and accessories. If someone else says they cant fix it, make sure to check with Angel before giving up. Finally, selection is great. Rarely do they not have a game, accessory, or console we want. And it is such a pleasure to have a place on the west side of Tucson! But if you dont live here, it is worth the drive!
They were extremly helpful. They fixed my sons xbox in like record time. I would recommend them for anyone seeking info on repair cost as well as general knowledge.
Ive been there a couple times over the years. I have even taken four buses going to and from there... To have him do work for me... And every time it was great experience.. I dont know the gentlemens name, I think its the son of the owner great guy.. I will be back...Jay Ember
Loved this place!When they reopen I plan on buying a game system that plays both NES Super NEScombo system and buy games for this system!
Game Trader is awesome they have all the video games Xbox One Xbox 360 backwards compatible PS3 player and much much more go see in the day
Walked in and was invisible by staff for 10 minutes. Only until after standing and having to ask for help was I acknowledged. In the conversation the employee was completely disengaged and disinterested. Will never go back to that place
A very cool game store with an excellent selection of retro games and systems. Its a mandatory stop for me when Im in Tucson.
Great customer service and have a huge selection of games we were looking for, as well as, accessories. Will be shopping here a lot more and recommending.The only negative is Google doesnt have their current location. Luckily, they were in the same shopping center and left a sign with phone number.
I love Gametraders. I want to look at some of the systems that I brought to them. Without any charge tell me what is wrong with it. Tell me how much it cost. When they do fix it, and they charge me. For the work they have done the prices Is beyond reasonable? You can either sell your old games. Old sisters and eating Blu-rays And get store credit. No matter what. It is getting or entertainment. They will always walk you through every little step and make sure that you are 100% satisfied. When it comes to gaming We always listen. So what you need and want? And the recommendations for video games for senior citizens adults teenagers. And yes even small children When it comes to fixing video game systems. Recommending video games or any accessories 100% know what theyre talking about. I highly recommend for everybody to pay game trailer a visit 100% customer service and 100% reasonable prices. And I considered a very good friends. I 100% recommend moon calendar for everyone come in today and pay them a visit. I guarantee you wont be disappointed.
Amazing hard working owner look forward to years of his store staying open
The people here are friendly, knowledgeable and are always willing to help you. System repairs have always been solid work as well. Never had any issues here.
I dropped off my Xbox one x for a repair. The staff were friendly gamers. The store was filled with retro games and the prices seemed more fair than at GameStop. If the repair goes well, Ill start driving out of my way for my gaming needs to support this local business.
Love coming here to buy or sell my stuff or have my consols fixed. Dave and Angel are extremely knowledgeable and always willing to help out how they can. Tony and Denson are also really great guys and always able to answer any questions i have. Wont go anywhere else.
Dont go here theyre by safeway now and the old white man owner ir whatever is very rude to colors
Cool little place, lots of options for games, including options for both older and newer consoles
Nice selection of a good price and friendly knowledgeable service.
I was having issues with my beloved ps4, it would constantly put itself into rest mode randomly. Anyway after a quick diagnosis and estimate I decided to leave it for a, “spa” day (cleaning etc). After getting it back I spent all night gaming with no issues!!! The techs at Gametraders AWESOME.
Nice and fun place to browse and buy some of the retro items for that good ol nostalgia
Friendly staff, very good prices (some even lower than pricecharting) huge variety of games, retro and new. I got a gamecube player with the cd, and a pokemon leaf green complete in box, for a very good price.
Darius is an amazing employee and really knows his stuff and was very helpful and should be promoted. This was my first experience and it was very enjoyable and found stuff for great prices and stays true to the customer is always right moto . I will be back in very soon. Keep up the good work.
Sold me a Dreamcast who’s laser went out within hours. Guy was rude af and price for trade in, unused PS Vita, was chump af, they turned around and sold it for more than double. Go to Bookman’s who have more selection, better prices and treat you better. This place is a little hole in the wall anyway who’s prices usually exceed Bookman’s. I stopped even going here.
I absolutely love this game store. I dont go anywhere else.
Great local game store. Employees are friendly, enthusiastic, and knowledgeable. Its always a pleasure to look around and enjoy the game-related banter. The selection is top notch, as are the buying prices and selling prices for used merchandise. Gamestop will buy a new release game back for $21 and resell it for $54.99 (62% Markup). These guys pay more and charge less which is why they get my business.
Great customer service, selection of games, and prices on repair services.
Great friendly service! A great spot for any old game system!
These guys are just awesome anything gaming i come to these guys thanks again for fixing all my kids nintendo ds games!!!!
The staff is very helpful and have good knowledge of their business. Great prices will have me coming back.
This place is amazing they have all the old school games and systems. They also clean and fix all systems and controls
Great place and deals always take my gear to get repair!
Game Trader is a great local video game store. The staff know what theyre doing, and they always have all the latest games. I would really recommend this place over other game stores.
Very nice and helped me with questions on PS4s and Xbox controllers.
One of the last local game stores in Tucson, Gametrader is a home away from home. The warm, welcoming atmosphere is enough to make you WANT to buy something and, believe it or not, everyone that works there is a gamer, so they know what theyre talking about. The only people I could ever see complaining about this place are impoverished slopes who dont have an income and expect their games to be paid for in nickles and dimes.
Good place to window shop, never know what youll find. Friendly staff will always try to help or even strike up a conversation.
Super nice guys helped us out. Good prices too
Not 100% sure that I understand the rules. I ate all the fruit but it wouldnt let me move on to the next fruit. Bad Ice Cream 3 unblocked on hudgames
They no longer have the Polish hot dogs or chocolate and swirl yogurts. Formally a great deal, now just another cheap eat!!!!!!
Bad experience, went in there to see if they could fix my controller, was having audio issues with it.Went to pick it up same damn issue. took it to some guy on craigslist fixed it right away works perfectly again
Good deals and a 30 day return policy. Better then gamestop.
Great selection of games from consoles from now to Clean facility. The boys working were very knowledgeable and social.
This store is INCREDIBLE. Amazing display of games with fantastic Employee Service.
Went in there and noticed it was clean which is a big plus. After further inspection of the merchandise, they had reproduction covers. This generally isn’t a deal breaker if it’s priced accordingly, however they were priced above Pricecharting’s complete pricing. This doesn’t fly in my book as a collector. Not to mention Metroid: Other M was $40. Pricecharting has it for $6 complete. I’m all for making money, but I feel sorry for the poor sap that buys it for at least 4 times retail pricing. I’m not saying Pricecharting is the “end all, be all”, but it should be checked along with other forms of pricing. The only saving grace this store has is it’s clean, organized well and the staff at the time were friendly, although they seemed oblivious to the definition of incomplete vs complete and pricing accordingly. This is fixable in my opinion, however, it should have been fixed a long time ago. 2 stars.PlusClean and organizedFriendlyConsOverpricedUninformed or just blatantly doesn’t care about collector market which is a shame considering they are in that market.Don’t recommend. Go to Phoenix
Very knowledgeable great service friendly staff awesome game selection.
Great store, David was very polite and knowledgeable, will go back!
This place is what the other competition should aspire to be. Great service. Never pushy and always knowledgeable.
Nothing but love, best game store ever. They repair old and new game consoles. Very great staff, really know thier stuff
They don’t answer the phone!
Great service, fast turn around.
Good selection and very helpful staff, Great repair department.
This place is really cool. Amazing staff. They most likely have the game youre looking for. Only problem is that some games (compared to GameStop) are very expensive. But on the bright side, some games (compared to GameStop.) Are very cheap! So.. Yeah...BTW, Your really cool Dave!
Loved it. Great people, great prices, and exceptional service
Great people, great prices. Glad to support a local business.
They did a great job fixing my water damaged 3DS and owner is a really cool dude.
We love this game store.
Went in to return a console wasnt working for what I wanted it for only played games when it wanted to. They didnt want to give me my money back and now Im stuck with a console that works half the time. Also you wont get your money back then only give you a gift card that you can only use at the store so youll never see your money again when you spend it here
Very helpful, great offers picked up things for better price than game stop
DO NOT GO! This so called local-business is scummy, they wasted over 20 minutes of my time and offerd me 4 DOLLARS FOR SUPER MARIO 64 AND ROGUE SQUADRON! ON TOP OF THAT THEY LOOKER OVER 40 PS3 GAMES AND SAID WE,LL TAKE THEM THEN MADE ME WAIT AND SAID NO. I think the guy was a bit slow too, this place is just trash. Went to gamestop and they gave me 130 DOLLARS!
Their tenacity for one, but they do what they do without frills or drama. Solid console game store.Wish there were a boardgame store this close!
Great games and good prices but wish they had more Xbox one games but the workers were really nice and helpfull. I wish they had a rewards program and had coupons
Awesome place very knowledgeable
There always so much more nice than game stop and actually like talking to you
Staff is knowledgeable and honest. I prefer to shop local and this is the best location in Tucson.
Great place great ppl
Ok store not enough ds games.
These are the go-to guys for those of us who just cant stomach GameStop any longer. The employees are very knowledgable about video games and can be trusted to help you find what youre looking for, without any dramatic attempt to add a ton of items or presale offers to your transaction. I highly recommend this place for the independent gamer who appreciates good service. Game Trader is run by gamers, for gamers, and it shows. *****
Super Ninja, Jedi Masters work here! Fixed my xbox360 right up. Phenomenal customer service!
Awesome place for trades and sales
This is my very 1st website review for any company. I had my Xbox One shipped by a friend and he forgot my power cord....this was a pain to replace! Walmart did not have one and when I went to GameStop the lady at the store told me the power supply was $70.00. I just needed the cord and not the main power hub...she didnt bother to dig in further or seek out any other creative solutions. Then I stumbled upon Game Trader via online. I called their number and spoke to Nick. After explaining my situation to him, he recommended I stopped by with my Xbox and see if one of his universal cords worked. Well, it did! Regardless of whether it worked or not, the fact that he sought out this creative solution was good enough! He didnt just tell me he didnt have the cord and goodluck. He went above and beyond to make appropriate recommendations for my unique situation which ended up with a successful resolution. Thank you again Nick! You are awesome man!!
Great local game store. They have the classics!
Nice staff and fast services.
Friendly staff willing to chat and give advise about games. Nice selection of older consoles and games - NES, SNES, Genesis, N64, Gamecube.
Didnt have what we needed but pointed us else where very helpful
Amazing place for retro games
Really great game store. Glad we stopped on our way through
The can fix controllers, for way less than buying new or used.
Convenient location. Friendly staff
Great store, great service
I tray sell my games but they give so low low price
Way better than game stop
Best place for videos
Nice staff quick repairs
Sorry to see them go
This place is a joke. Horrible inventory of classic games.
OVER PRICED! If you like over paying, then this is the place for you
Finally I found a place for my inner gamer
Fun place to shop and trade
