Nerdtopia

"This place is just a small mom and pop hole in the wall style business that’s one of the better kept secrets in my town. I can’t really review it well I think as I’m almost completely blind so I can’t really account for how things look. I discovered this place when I was looking to get rid of some retro games. I’m getting older and I have started to move more over to emulation causing me to get rid of most of my older games to sort of clean house. The experience was ok for the most part. It wasn’t bad or anything but it can be a bit odd. I had to stop at the establishment a few times because I was looking to offload quite a few retro games and the first few times I was informed that I had to wait for the owner to come in to do the transaction. It took a few trips but I had managed to catch him. He seems pleasant to work with and the woman that was accompanying him is a complete and utter blast. Yea. She’s that great. They were pretty kind to my mother and I appreciate that they had no issue helping her when I was resting my fatigued frame on a couch that they have in the other room. It has that nice mom and pop feel and promotes an air of inclusion. They didn’t appear to have any issues with a transwoman that had walked in after me to look around. With me being an extremely well passing trans person myself it was nice to know that I was in good company. I bought a few things and took my leave. Unfortunately I don’t see myself returning to the location. I don’t really purchase too many games these days. I was mainly there to offload some really old games so that the newer generations would have the chance to enjoy them as many of the games I sold are becoming rare. I achieved that goal and with no more titles to sell I would say that its a case of mission accomplished. As a Sierra vista native I can say that I’m proud to have them in my town and I wish them prosperity for the future."

"This store was very nice, staff were very friendly, prices were perfect, even had a game room where all different types of consoles and systems. Definitely would come here if not again!"

"A full 5 stars for the best retro gaming establishment in town! I wouldn't recommend any other place in Sierra Vista. They have such a vast selection, everything catches your eye and stands out! Makes it super to hard to walk out the door without buying something! I will ALWAYS be using Nerdtopia for my gaming experience because they value your time more than the other places in town. Love this place!"

"Absolutely wonderful store! They have the old stand up arcades you can play for free, for as long as you’d like, which is really cool in my opinion. I couldn’t believe they have the old school Star Wars arcade game. They also have The Simpsons and several of the older games as well. They have all kinds of retro gaming inventory as well as having all the new systems that you can try out and play, including the Oculus. The staff is very knowledgeable and very friendly. I noticed several customers hung around and talked with the employees for quite a while after making their purchase. The atmosphere is very inviting and chill and the employees make you feel welcome. Overall great store, great selection and great employees. Will definitely be returning to hang out and play some video games."

"Wonderful place that brings you back to the past! Wonderful selection of games and consoles. Arcade cabinets to Xbox 360 to PlayStation and more! Great place to stop and shop! They 3D print and allow you to rent out the shop for lounging and partying. Small but an amazing place!"
