    I read a bit about it and it sounds good. Do they have a good selection of D.C, GBA, GBC, PS1 games etc or are half of them old Fifa games? What's the average price of the games? Really tempted to check them out but want to know if it's worth heading down.

    They're fantastic although it's mostly home console cartridge based games they have at the moment but think they said they are interested in handheld games and disc based games as well and might be getting more of them in. Currently only have a few PS1, DC and gameboy games there. NES, SNES, N64 and Megadrive selection is great though.

    Whats Rage like?
    It's like a little piece of heaven, a piece of heaven where you're compelled to spend at least 80% more than you expected.
    It's a place that makes you gaze at the stock and wonder where the nearest ATM is.

    This little clip explains it better than I can...

    I've had to limit how often I go in because I need money to eat and stuff. I think I've left the shop empty-handed once, and I wasn't happy about it!

    Definitely will give it a try. So how much on average would a snes game cost?

    To add to that... a boxed NES, if anyone's seen one in there? I think I remember seeing someone saying most of the boxed consoles are 50 quid, unboxed 30?

    I know the feeling man.
    It's hard enough for me to get time to travel into the City Centre but I did on Wednesday however they had feck all. Then on Thursday and today they posted pictures on facebook of the cool stuff they got in their deliveries.

    My wallet is all the better for this but I personally am not :)

    10-15 unboxed although the more sought after ones are a little more expensive.

    Since they have gotten a lot more well known and since they started that facebook site their stock seems to go pretty fast. However just keep an eye on facebook and when a delivery comes in you can ask them if they will accept paypal for the games and hold on to them or post them to you.

    Great shop alright and a small selection of Gameboy & GBA games, I picked up Iridion II on GBA last time I was there and there was Super R.C ProAm for GB amongst others.

    3DGames or whatever it's called on Grafton Street had a decent amount of gba games when I was there during the week. I went home with Metroid (nes version made for gba) so I was happy.
