I remember when it first opened, kind people. Nice and easy to talk to. Amazing service when I wasn't sure if what I was going to purchase was going to be ideal they allowed me to come back if it wasn't a good choice, however my brother loved the video game I bought for him.

Been coming here for years ; Staff is honestly hit or miss, the layout is pretty good as of the time writing this, while I do know they’re trying to make a profit, the price estimates are insane for when you have something worth a lot more, but then they turn around and say they can only do half of that or even less then half. Game buying wise, pricing makes sense here in there, but having some games in plastic wrapping and calling it “mint” and pricing it $50 more then what it actually goes for is insane. If you’re coming here for casual games, great place to buy them. But more expensive titles? Probably not.

My fiance and I went here to sell some of his old games. We went to our local GameStop first but they couldn't take them since his games are now considered retro. They recommended we check out 1UP Video Games to see what they would offer us. We got a great deal thanks to Lorenzo! They had a huge selection of games and consoles. Definitely worth checking them out!

Amazing video game store! Tobey is the man there. All of the guys are respectful and attentive. I’m happy I was able to get my hands on a PS2 after so many years. Thank you for bringing back memories. I highly recommend this place!

I went to the store for the first time to get some PS4 games, and I have got to say the staff is friendly and helpful. They offer a huge amount of games at amazing prices and should be the store to stop by for some games.

Only went for a short while but here’s my encounters.
1 - cartridge base games I’ve bought were brasso’d to high hell with residue and made cleaning a pain
2 - had to be very cautious of games I bought. Had to buy out of the owners stash because games for Nintendo 64 in the general case were reproduction or fakes for the major first part titles
3 - staff was hit or miss. Didn’t feel valued most times and anytime you looked at games in the case when they forgot to lock it would get mad and the store was to sanitary , I bought a game once that had dead roaches in the plastic protector bag for the nes game
4 - the nail in the coffin was I went in the other day because they had games in the owners case that were expensive but was going to buy because I needed them for my collection and was going to spend upward of a grand or more and then to be told sorry if you don’t have cash I can’t sell , sorry new policy by owner. So that miffed me to no avail and was the nail in doing business and to add they were smug about it . Plus it’s suspicious why you only sell certain thing for cash but everything is acceptable . But they shown they don’t need my business and won’t be conducting going forward.
