This small hunting trip is great because it is a single trip to the Ave. and you can see 2 very good and relatively less known shops that sell retro games.
First stop is the University District shop of Pink Gorilla
The shop is bigger than the International District one but has a lesser feel of Japanese shop, maybe because it has a less amount of Jap games and consoles. Today they had a big room full of bargain and I picked up many manuals for a buck each.

 |
| Al's Music Video & Games 4547 University Way Northeast, Seattle - (206) 547-3870 |
Second stop a block north is a used movie / music / video games store, It is an old dusty shop where you would not expect to find much retro systems and games, but you would be wrong. It's a gold mine for retro fans, don't expect to find screaming deals as the owner knows the value of this old junk and price games accordingly, but if you are looking for a specific game, chances are they have it. Stop by also to see their very rare stuff in the various windows, many of them not for sale.

ReplyDeleteNope. I instead for a Japanese Famicom, looks much cooler to me.
