Vintage Gaming Store Continues to Grow

I stopped by the vintage game store that I help run in Reading, MA today and finally got around to taking a few pictures of the ever-expanding setup that we have built. Things are progressing nicely and our selection is growing by the day. Check out the pictures below and be sure to check us out if you are in the area.

 

And Finally, looked what walked into the store today (I am thinking about snagging this one for my personal collection)

Nintendo Virtual Boy

Not yet, but my guess is that it is only a matter of time before we see a "Robbie" come through the door. When he does, he is MINE! :)

Thats sweet! If it was "your" store I would know where to donate my original Xbox & unused games. ;-)

I am in partnership with the owner of the store, so in some respects it is "my" shop in that I get a piece of every video game item sold. If nothing else, think of it as Waterborn's LAN fund. :)

Yeah, getting a lot of comment about VB headaches. Probably why we got it in the first place.

Your store is setup like the GameXchange in St. Joseph, MO. It's like the Willy Wonka Factory of video games! But if that's true, then that would make you Willy Wonka. And that's just creepy...and pedophile-ish....but i still want a golden ticket. Have I been at work so long that I'm not starting to make sense? :)

Hehe BC, I am no Willy Wonka. The store also has a sick assortment of comics, movies, cd and toys. Great place!
