Gamerz world - Huntsville, Alabama

Gamerz World is run by a good group of people, helpful and knowledgeable. It is also one of the best selections anywhere. The hours are a bit odd because absolutely nothing is going to stop the owner from picking up his daughter after school.

The aisles have gotten a bit tight, which may bother some people.

Extremely friendly staff, however I would say be extra sure of the used controllers. I purchased an Xbox One X controller for my emulator and then immediately went out of town so I didn't get a chance to test it. Got back about ten days later to play finally and realized the left trigger didn't work. I tested it through a gamepad tester and saw that the left trigger registered as constantly depressed 60% and it doesn't register any input from the user.

I took apart the controller to see if it was just an alignment issue that could be fixed but it was immediately evident that the controller had been either previously modified or the previous owner tried to and did a very bad job of it. Massive soldering issues all over the left side of the PCB. Disappointed. As I now have to drop another $50 on a controller. Don't let my review dissuade you from checking out the shop. Just double check everything first.

Edit: They made it right. Gave me a new replacement. Incredible stuff.

It's been years since I've been to this place. Gamers world deserves a 5 star review. The owner is great guy and will work with you and is a very honest hard working man. I've obtained a nintendo 64, Sega dream cast and about 50 or so games over a span of a few years from them. The game boy advanced sp is still working without any issues, my n64 and dream cast are still in prime condition also. You will not find a better deal on retro gaming.

If I could leave a 0 star review I would. I have been up there not once, not twice but three times to get my HDMI port fixed on my PlayStation 5. After the third time I heard rattling inside of my PlayStation from Kyle not putting things back correctly after “ fixing “ the issue. ( I even texted him letting him know and haven’t heard back about that. ) Now here we are again, needing the fourth repair for the hdmi port. Only good thing I can say is he didn’t charge me each and every time he tried “ fixing “ it. Spend the extra $80 and get someone who can fix it and be done with it. This has been such a huge head ache. ( still awaiting Kyle’s response ).

Always wanted to check out and finally stopped by today! Loved all the vintage games and new! Nice little shop!

I actually specifically came here for a PS4 disc drive repair. Kyle was quick to take a look at the unit & gave me a fair quote. He repaired it a few weeks later & let me know it was ready. He even returned it to me for the less than the quoted price. Unit is back home working fine now so would definitely recommend his services. Nice selection of games & systems there too.

Talk about bringing back nostalgia, I walk in the store and transport back to the 90s when I was a kid playing sixty four playstation, anything, handheld, and all the games that just bring you back to those days they've got such a big collection and the people that work there know their stuff on top of they have pretty much anything you need to get an old system running again including some more modern upgrades, for your old consoles

I showed up and got a replacement controller. Found it to be in a near perfect state just needing to be cleaned once I tried it myself. Also it is working better than 2 others I have around. Immediately I’m happy I was able to get a replacement and they offer a warranty on the used controllers. I had a controller going out in the first place and went to a different store. They had no controllers at all and then I tried out this one to be surprised. Also, I find this store to some better stock. They have about everything. I will be returning here and next time I will make sure to walk in through the Front Door.
