Retro Island Gaming - Islip Terrace, New York

I discovered Retro Island Gaming while searching for a specific game I couldn’t find at a reasonable price. Not only did they have it brand new, but it was also much cheaper than anywhere else! Their deals are fantastic, and the shipping was incredibly fast. I received my order in less than a week, even during a holiday week. To top it off, they even threw in a few Pokémon cards at no extra charge, which was such a nice touch. I only wish I lived closer so I could visit their store in person! These guys are true gamers, not price gougers, and I’ll definitely be buying from them again! Thank you!

What a great selection of games. I ordered games online and they were shipped out the next day. Cases, Games, Manuals are all in great condition! I also really like the personal touch they did on my order itinerary. Even when there was a mix up with one of my orders, they were very quick to resolve the issue. Going above and beyond! I will be shopping with these guys quiet often and be recommending them to everyone!

Just visited this new store today, and I'm impressed. The owner was super chill and knowledgeable. They take pride in making sure all the games are in good condition and fully working. Found some pretty rare and nice Sega Saturn games to add to my already huge library. Overall great experience and will be coming back.

I walked in with a bunch of old video games and a couple Pokemon cards. Was offered very fair value for them in a trade. The workers and environment were great and welcoming. No complaints here. If you’re interested in just about any retro video games, Pokemon cards, and other stuff, highly recommend stopping by.

This store is an absolutely fantastic experience to discover. All 3 owners are extremely wonderful and helpful, and there’s just about every option available when it comes to retro gaming. They have consoles, games, imported snacks and drinks, graded Pokemon cards, Nintendo power magazines, and more. 10/10 recommend you give them a shot!

Ordered from here recently, shipping was quick and the package arrived safely which is no surprise considering it was not only bubble wrapped on the inside but also had paper cushioning! gotta say my favorite part was the thank you note and some free pokemon cards! Totally unexpected and I wish I lived near here so I could stop by in person!!

They had all the answers to my questions - I’m new to Pokémon games, and they had great suggestions for everything I was looking for. I’ve never been a card collector either, but their enthusiasm was contagious…suffice to say I think I’ll be purchasing more cards in the future 😅 I also purchased a new 3DS which was super clean and runs like new. Definitely a high quality standard here

Retro Island Gaming is probably top 5 on the list as far retro stores go on the island. The one major thing that holds it back from being 5 stars in my opinion is their prices. They tend to up charge on things that are a little more higher in demand, which makes sense but if you really look around for a day or 2 you can find what you're looking for for cheaper. Thats really the only downside to this place though, the staff is very friendly, the quality of stuff they have is amazing as they really take care of what comes in to the store, they have a lot of rarer games and hard to find items than most places, and they will work on you with pricing sometimes. They also have an amazing website you can check out if you need info on their stock, it's very helpful. Definitely stop in if you're around the area, they might have something a lot of others wont.

If retro island adjusts their pricing then this store is a VERY easy 5 stars,
