The Game Exchange - Simi Valley, California

P. S.

Great play area for parties with lots of different games to choose from. I also loved their selection of retro video games that had really great prices. Friendly staff as well. Highly recommended!

The best local game store I’ve been to in a long time! Wonderful staff (huge shoutouts to my man Jacob) and a very solid selection of games and consoles at pretty fair prices. Would 100% recommend to both hardcore and newer collectors!

DO NOT BE SCARED TO ASK IF THERE IS ANYTHING IN THE BACK. Unlike most video game stores where the glassy eyed employee will look at you blankly and say "Everything is on the shelf/in the case" (I see that stack of games back there!! What are they broken? Sold? On hold for someone? Acknowledge them!) this store has ample stock in the back that they will happily bring out if you ask them to. I'm not talking duplicates either, I mean real quality titles that they just don't have space for on the floor.

The owner here is a great guy, several times I have been in there and he is always talking to the customers in the store, giving great customer service and taking an interest in what they have to say. It is a welcome change from your standard game store where at most they look up briefly to utter a few forced grunts before going back to playing on their phones.

In my opinion they used to have a stock problem but in the last 2-3 months they seem to have fixed that, they have had a good selection of NES titles the last two times I have been there and the owner says he is working on getting more.

He also services and cleans up new and retro consoles from what I gather. So I think he is worth checking out.

Joe the owner was really helpful, friendly and knowledgeable. They have a great selection of games for every system which is nice to go in and be able to browse some classics, that are a blast to play. I love going here and walk out with some piece of nostalgia every time. I have got playstation 2 Nintendo 64, and Nintendo DS games, as well as cords cables and memory cards i needed for my systems. They're rental policy is awesome and if you buy a game and don't like it you can take it back with in 3 days. This place is a blessing. Glad you guys are in business.

Aside from holding classic to modern games, The Game Exchange holds a super helpful and friendly staff that most likely will not give you a hard time. Their private parties allows users to play supplied video games for hours and it is definitely great fun. Their repairs are also on the cheaper side, as I heard.

Thanks for the joys sticks for my xbox controller. They were all worn out, now it's as good as new! And they had great customer service and were very knowledgeable when it came to extra parts for controllers.

Awesome place for games. They have a full size arcade of Time Crisis, the classic arcade shooter from our childhood. They also have way more choices than GameStop and have a much bigger selection of systems going all the way back to Nintendo and systems of that era. Definitely worth stop by to check it out and play a game of Time Crisis!

I can't in good conscious recommend this place to anyone.

They bought 5 of my 3DS games for $45, which was far below even cash value of GameStop. I can't believe I lost 5 games for store credit.

And they also are selling Nintendo Selects games for more than $25 when their price brand new is $20

This place is honestly robbery. Please do not shop here.
