This place is a treasure grove of fine art and antiquities. Dont waste your time with gamestop, a chain that cares nothing about the entertainment console days of yore. Great place friendly staff. Great food locations nearby. If they cant find the item you seek in the store they can find it!
My sister and I travel the country for our gaming group and everywhere we go we try to find and support local game shops. Upon first impressions this store is very messy/disheveled. There are a lot of broken and/or dirty items. Now mind you, some collectors wouldn’t care about that. It’s not a great first impression when you walk in though.There are no signs indicating where you can or can not go. And when my sister stepped behind the “counter” (a shelf piled high with haphazardly stacked consoles and games with no indication that you can’t walk on the other side to look at the games on the wall) the employee very rudely said “Ask before you go behind the courter.” To be fair, that’s not an unreasonable request! And had he been polite this would be a much higher star review.When I genuinely apologized and said that we didn’t know/were from out of town (and as my sister removed herself from looking at the games on the wall) he just repeated himself even more rudely.We give the place a two star because there probably are some good finds amongst the heaps. Though we were planning to buy quite a few things from Game Quest we decided to go elsewhere and found better prices and much friendlier service at a different shop about 10 minutes away.Though we come through Amarillo a few times a year sadly we will not be coming back to this shop nor can we recommend it to our followers. I hope you all have a better experience!
Walked in and was immediately impressed by just how much stuff is for sale here. Tons of figures, plushies, shirts, vinyls, and games. Cards too I can imagine but I didnt go into that section. Great selection and really really great prices. Staff was super friendly and helpful as well, even letting us come back later to buy our games so we could check out another game store while in town. The only real problem is that theres so much stuff sometimes it tends to overflow and it can be a bit disorganised, making it hard to look for certain things. Overall though great experience and great store!
Im a pop collector and they have a large variety, but the ones that arent priced at $10 are most likely way overpriced, when I was there so many pops were in okay condition, but the ones I saw that were $100 and $77, were $60 and $35 dollars over Pop Price Guide, so if you go here and you see a pop you like, make sure youre spending a smart amount for it, I understand mark-ups to keep making money, but thats too much for a piece of plastic in a non-mint box. The collection of other things is alright, but didnt really look at much else so I cant speak for the rest of place.
Awesome store! Very eclectic product choices. From collectible card games to video games, comics, vinyl, DVDs, systems accessories, action figures. Its unbelievable the things they have in stock. Very nice and informative customer service. Definitely worth your time and money.
Awfully disappointed, I came in to get a ps4 slim and was hooked up pretty good i assumed. They gave me 3 extra games and were very nice and respectful, i made sure to ask if they tested the system before selling it and they said they did test it. I got home realized they didn’t give me a remote control charger with my controllers, I didn’t have too much of a problem with that. Turned the ps4 on, about 2-3minutes later the fan was blaring loudly and my system told me to turn off the ps4 due to overheating. I turned it off and realized that the heatsink was absolutely covered in dust, we cleaned it and then found another problem… disc drive doesn’t work, the disc won’t even go in (there is no disc inside). Won’t be coming back again sadly, i really did enjoy the costumer service. Time to take me ps4 to the shop, I understand that it’s a used ps4 so i won’t get the best quality but it’s still extremely upsetting that it was in such bad condition. At least it turns on!! 😌
Great service and are professional. They didnt mind that I had my 4 year old with me (which was awesome I usually get asked to keep her in line) I have deleted my previous review because I in no way was trying to come off as a KAREN because I have never treated any of the store owners or workers with disrespect. I am sorry to hear about your daughter. Hope everything is going to be okay. The reason I was calling was to get some info on some manuals and other items I had aquired. And was wondering if there way to get accurate information and pricing on what I have and I trust this stores employees knowledge on these types of items. And if there was a time and day that would be best to come in. Again sending prayers for you and your daughter.
Best experience Ive had entering any business ive entered in amarillo! All employees are very friendly. and rather comical indeed. I could spend hours lost in this small business simply socializing with employees aswell as customers. The energy this place has about it is what we wish could be spread through amarillo and revive the social scenes of amarillo.
Selling an ungraded shadowless blastoise (Pokémon card) for $800!! Lol. They sure don’t know how to price range their Pokémon card collection. Based on condition, I would grade it 5/10 🙌. P.S. don’t buy their Pokémon cards, especially from sellers with an IQ less than 85 👈👀Check this out…your $800 card is only worth $100 🤣Kid, you and your “breakfast club” 🤣 need to get educated on price ranging.
He had exactly what I needed for ps3. Surprisingly awesome quality and guaranteed everything. The controllers from hyperkin seem nice, the l2 and r2 buttons arnt as responsive and nice as the rest of the controller. Ill try the second one later. Unfortunately the CODghost game doesnt work but he gave a warranty on it. Thanks David for all the help!
I didnt know this place existed until last week and now its by favorite place in Amarillo. If you are into gaming at all then this place is worth youre time to check out. They had exactly what I was looking for at a great price. The owner and staff are extremely nice and knowledgeableand were more than happy to help me out. Ill definitely go back!
This place is cool, for lack of a more accurate word. Facing the building, the right outer wall is decked out in some of the most insanely neat 1980s-90s gaming art I have ever seen. If anything, stop by just to photograph this wall! Inside the shop itself is a very gamey atmosphere. They sell games and consoles for all systems. They have toys, books, novelties, cards, and much more. They have a room dedicated to card playing and lockers to store your stuff. The customer service was amazing and it is very fun inside.
Local home for all nerds. I love this place there so many friendly faces and they took me in when I had nowhere to go. local nerds (said with love) adopted me as one of their own and taught me how to play dungeons & Dragons. I now have a regular game going every week and I look forward to spending time with my friends.
Great place to get fandom based stuff.The owner is a great guy, who is always happy to help you find whatever you may need for anything from collectables, to gaming, to RPG tools.Extremely fair prices for the products you are getting. Just an overall great place to shop or play a little Magic.
I normally would recommend this place to everyoneBut seeing the way the owner he treated the most recent review makes me think otherwise if someone is having an issue it’s better to resolve the issue not with name calling ..... if there was an issue making a voicemail or writing a poss letting everyone know why you aren’t doing business that day would be appreciated I myself tried to get a hold of you guys for days and couldn’t get through either but I can see how the customer service is I don’t understand why name calling has to be involved
Amazing place. Great atmosphere. If your in to video games, board games, collecting figures or any kind of fan novelty this is the place for you. They have classic game consoles, classic games, & all the accessories to go with them. Anything from Star Wars, Star Trek, Disney, WWF/WWE, Harry Potter etc. Collection/Novelty items. Definatly a great place to visit for tourists or any body local as well.
If you ar person who loves games: Board Games, Magic, Yu-gi-Oh, Force Of Will, Pokemon, Retro or Current Video Games. This place has it all for you. They also have some great selection of vintage toys, vinyls, and movies. Staff is great and always a smile when you are greeted.
This comic book/game store is useful. Its great for several reasons. It also lacks for several reasons as well.Unfortunantly, if you are trying to find a tabletop RPG game or group, do not go here! They do not have official league games. Groups and games that are started are unorganized and have no coordination. The first time a friend and me approached a group, we were shunned away. The organizer was an hour late without even letting a friend of mine or myself know.However, other products such as Magic and Pokemon as well as relics from electronic entertainment and the past of gaming can be discovered and is worth a look. Tournaments are a regular.While it is hard to find for newcomers and finding a place to park can be tedious at times, its worth visiting. Inside of the shop can seem abit dusty, but mostly clean and a small spot to geek out. It is one of the better spots in town.
Not just game but it is games, from classic consoles and accessories to selling packs and and singles of trading card games, a decent selection of board games, and other random collectibles, dont skip this store when you go down 6th street its a great change up from all the antique stores on the Route.
Now this was a trip down memory lane! Heard of this place from a friend, and I only wished to pop in and see what was what, and I was beyond amazed! What was supposed to be a short jaunt turned into an incredible nostalgia voyage. Thank y’all so much, and I will certainly be back for more!
Love this place, it always has such a great vibe, it’s an overall great environment to be in, was just in there today, Brian is an absolute sweetheart. Thanks for always helpin me out ❤️I’m loving the heck out of everything I purchased today, can’t thank y’all enough for the great customer service that y’all always provide 😊

2022-06-19Having movie night after 11 pm disreguarding the noise ordinance which is supposed to stop after 10 pm. No consideration for the housing living behind the bldg. Also disreguarding the fact that you cannot block the alley by parking vehicles.

2022-07-01Its a cool place where you can sit down and play magic, will a force, yugioh, or pokemon with your friends or random other people in town. The owner. Kevin can be a little rude but its a minor detail to a otherwise very family friendly place.

2022-02-26Ive been going to Game Quest for quite a while, and it is by far the best place in town to buy Pokemon singles. Kevin is VERY knowledgeable about anything trading card related. There is also a huge selection of hard to find collectibles. Just an all around great place!
