Super cool store!! Great prices on PlayStation games. I had browsed eBay and was looking for old favorites and was shocked to find how much some games go for, so I started looking for disc only listings on eBay. Gameshop still had better prices and had manuals and cases. Cool friendly people working there.

Will have to go back to spend some more time in the shop. Looked like they sold CRTs and TV/VCR combos too. Rad!!

This store took me by surprise. I live an hour away but was in the area and decided to swing inside. This store is simply incredible. There are tons of aisles filled with figures, cards, import games, all sorts of retro games, and tons of vhs and crt TVs. The selection is top notch for every system and whether you collect games, figures, or cards I can guarantee they have stuff you’re looking for. The owner(s) are super nice and after mentioning it was my first time in there we chatted for a little bit. Very humble and nice people in there. I want this place to get the attention it deserves so definitely go check it out. Thanks for the good deal on Pokémon pinball! - Phill

Gameshop Downstairs has some of the most friendly and helpful staff I've seen in the retro video game and comic shop scene in San Jose.

In addition to great staff, the store has a very good selection of foreign retro games, mainly from Japan.
Long story short, since I'm continually looking for Nintendo Famicom accessories and games, I will recommend!

A hidden gem for retro games! It's part of an electronics shop, which you enter first before going downstairs. They've got a huge selection and their prices are very competitive. The staff are all friendly, too. Not all of them are hobbyists but they can tell you all about their stock. The shelves are lined with everything from games to VHSs to toys to cards to gaming accessories. Their selection of console games is nearly 3x their handheld selection. It includes imports as well. Most of the notable Nintendo handheld games are by the front counter and are usually limited. It's hard not to walk out with something here!

Very old school feel to this comic , card and video game location. Loved it and so did my sons. Excellent customer service especially with my lil guys. We have been here many time before in the past but hadn’t stopped by in a minute and they have expanded the underground shop and it turned out very well and my boys loved it. Will be stopping by to spend more money soon. Many thanks to the young man running the shop/show! Appreciate you.

Turns out there's a downstairs where you can buy retro games and comics and everything else you need for your gaming needs. Good place to buy used games at a cheaper price or a good place to sell stuff! There's also an arcade machine here with a fun discount available if you win certain number of points. There's lots of consoles you can buy here so you can get everything you need in a single go

GameStop downstairs is a great store for great retro game pick ups! They also have great customer service and they have the best retro stuff for sale!!! I recommend this store if you’re looking for old school games and Nintendo accessories. I travel almost two hours to go to this store and it’s worth it every time! Anthony is also great with customer service and really helped me out! They are very reasonable and will help out customers. Thanks again!

Great place to go, large selection of games, nice employees and even comics. My only complaint would be it's a little dirty but that's because its downstairs.

This place brings back memories of what it was like back in the day. When video games were a very big hit with so many titles to choose from. I bought a game boy color and some games from them. And the staff was dope and very chill. I love the diversity and the set up in this place,it is very cool. I recommend this place to anyone who is into gaming and comics or even anime.

Insane hidden gem of a location. Going into the downstairs portion of this store took me back in time to my childhood in the 90s. The games, consoles, collector cards, comics, and toys from the last 30+ years made for a pleasant first visit. I will be back.

This is a really cool place with a variety of stuff, including harder to find games and cards. I come here once in a while for their disc resurfacing service and to trade in games that I come across (and usually leave with something I didn't plan on buying). One thing to note is that their trade in value for store credit is pretty insane, so it's worth bringing in games/cards. Their prices are very fair and sometimes dip lower than eBay, but usually stay around market value rather than overcharging like I'm used to seeing. Definitely check it out if you get the chance.

Head downstairs to the left when entering the tech shop.

It felt surreal and nostalgic to be able to visit.

They have lots of game (and theme-d) items and comics as well.

Prices are fair and any collector should visit.

Will return in the future.

Coolest used video game shop I've seen hands down. It is in the basement to the pawn shop upstairs, which has the same owner to this place. Just walk in and go down the stairs. The selection and prices are pretty unbelievable. Picked up an Xbox 360 game for $10. Some older 360 games were $5. They also had a great movie section and collectibles and stuff like that. Nice people behind the counter.

Excellent customer service! Great selection! Saw some uncommon games. Wished I didn't have to park at meters because I wanted to browse in the store longer than the timer allowed.
