Really disappointed after my last visit. They no longer sell single magic cards and on top of that all the tables are gone so you can't go here to play games with friends anymore. I live in forest Grove so this was the closest place and Beaverton is a bit far for me. If you're just looking for old video games feel free, but that's all this place is good for now.

I'm a fan of the other Retro Game Trader location in Beaverton so I figured it would be time to visit the one in Hillsboro. I was not disappointed at all! Very spacious and clean with a lot to offer inside for all the big video game consoles, as well as cute hobby collectibles that are pretty affordable for what you get. Their games are mostly fairly priced (retro gaming is an expensive hobby so it's understandable) and they price match which is cool. The employees seem passionate about what they do, though it can be hard to get a worker's attention if they are engrossed in a conversation (in that case just ask another worker who's not busy). Overall I do think I prefer it to the other location though both are great! Will definitely be coming back!

The selection is nice and there’s lots of rare games under one roof but the massive elephant in the room is how majority of the games I have gotten from this store didn’t work unless they were extensively cleaned with 99% isopropyl since nobody else bothered to do so before it was put on the shelf. Regardless of how much you pay for a game, if it was for free or $150, it won’t work first try, which that’s the expectation when you are paying more than Ebay prices.If the owner is reading this, do yourself a favor and just invest in some 99% isopropyl and some tighter quality control, maybe then the prices will actually make sense. Nobody should be able to return a broken item just to exchange it for another broken item. Until then I can’t honestly recommend this store to anyone. Once is a mistake, twice is negligence.

Best video game store in Oregon! Awesome staff is very friendly and knowledgable! Management is above excellent! Very well organized and fun to browse. Amazingly huge selection of games from all eras. Lots of trading cards too and collectables! Great doing business here, would highly recommend supporting this store with your next purchase.

Love this place and great selection. Very nostalgic. The only downfall is that the prices have increased extensively over the years.

Very well organized and selection is extensive. You can find a lot of cool stuff here and products are usually in good condition.However, it’s basically a brick and mortar DK oldies shop when it comes to prices. Prices are well above what you’d pay at other local retro stores and eBay. I’ve seen the owners comments on here about Ebay scalpers coming in if they lower prices but there’s a difference between having competitive prices and having prices 10-20 percent above competition. That’s manipulating the market at the expense of consumers. When you’re buying games consistently to build a collection the prices add up quickly. I’ve also received pretty mediocre customer service here as well. Last weekend I came in with a friend and half of the employees were doing nothing while the people who did help seemed annoyed. The owner or manager was also talking super loudly with employees in a very condescending tone that was off putting and highly unprofessional.Tappers and VGW on Foster are much better options if you’re looking for a fairly priced retro store with much better customer service.

I absolutely love this place, all the staff treat you like a close friend or family. The owner will even play some games with you as well, the people that come to buy stuff or play games as well are cool, all around a welcoming place 10/10
