1Up Video Games

Amazing service with a HUGE assortment of retro games, cards, figures, etc. that are always reasonably priced. They have a free arcade in the front of the store, and my wife and I always play games for a bit before we shop.

Please support physical media stores like this because they are not only the best places to buy retro games, they are great hubs for all generations to explore and appreciate all forms of games.

Been going to this store for a couple years now and have a lovely and pleasant experience every time. The owner has always been super nice and it's clear he has a lot of video games knowledge whenever we chat about games. Always very welcoming to anyone and a good atmosphere in general

Had a pleasant conversation with the owner, who clearly knows what's in the store and has a passion for the business and what he sells. The store itself is clean, well-lit, and well-organized.

I intend to visit 1Up again the next time I'm in Minnesota to buy some games and to ask the owner whether he enjoyed Earthbound.

By far my favorite games store. Fun games right in front, staff are nice and friendly every time. Prices are definitely reasonable in my opinion. I did have some stuff to sell that they didn't want, but that's understandable considering inventory and they'd have to test everything. I'll be coming back for future gaming needs. Thank you!

Scott the owner is a great man and always makes sure his customers have a great experience. I personally go for the pokemon cards and they have a great selection for a small business at a great price. Comparing prices to the target next door and definitely would trust my money going with 1Up.

Awesome, friendly, and fair owner. He has clearly worked hard to develop this shop as not only a retail store, but also an entertainment destination. The variety of free video games available for play is incredible!

Cool, free arcade games in the front! Lots of variety for PSP, Xbox, Wii, GameCube, NES, and gameboy games. They sell some gameboys and charging equipment too, with lots of other goodies throughout the store. Really kind, generous owner. Love it and will definitely be coming back. Thank you for being awesome!!

Amazing store! If you’re looking for old games of any console THIS is the place to go! The arcade area is very cool and they have a wide variety of Pokemon and magic cards!!

This store is awesome! Very clean and organized. Owner is a great guy, stop in and support a small business!!

Best game place I have ever visited , I have been taking my son here for three years (& we’ve been to so many others that we’re not as good as this place) always a fair price , always knowledgeable , always friendly.

This place is great. Has a mini arcade & great collection of collectibles/games/cards and more.

Have stopped in multiple times through a couple years and the staff is always friendly and prices reasonable. Way better than other "Zero" star confused stores in the area.

Hey I was wondering if you guys sell 3ds or ds games as well as the consles I've been looking for a new 3ds model but every where I go there way to expensive in the meantime I'm giving you guys a 5 star rating please answer me back when u can thanks!

Bought a couple thing here before with really good experience. Bought one a manufacture error, the online card has bent on top, order is all wrong and there’s no foil card. They did replaced it and I opened one with 2 foil cards. Really nice people, will definitely recommend and shop here again. Even if your not in the market to buy anything, I still recommend you to stop by and check it out.

My buddy Rob Smith and I were in the area after a Snarf Snarf show. We popped in and were blown away by this gem, it was pure uplifting gold. Staff treated us like royalty and it was so cool to see all the retro games and consoles. This store was ranked the best new gamer store of all time!

Great unique place! Staff was very polite and helpful and my children had such a great time (so did my husband and I)! We will definitely return and I absolutely recommend coming for some cool games most of us haven’t seen in decades- and some of us had no idea existed

Who doesn't love pinball? It's almost like an old arcade place without the drama. I definitely would be interested in picking up some Nintendo games . Maybe I could stop in for a game of table tennis. I hope there's a shop that serves good tacos in the area or at least good BLT sandwich

Greatest new game store of all times!
A truely great environment with even a better customer service.
Would love to of gone and seen the Rob Smith signing as I saw in a prior review!
Keep up the great business!

This is a great store to go to for all your retro or current video games, card game, mini figure needs. The owner is great! I have been going there now for a few years and wouldn’t go to any other game store.
