When you do find some stores, please post their addresses in the Retro Game Store Thread, for it is hungry! :twisted:

Besides a game stop every block, there are three main franchises here: the Record exchange, Cash-In Culture, and Orphaned media. There is also a small game store right next to the record exchange in Dormont, where they sell all gba games for a dollar, no matter what the title is. The place is called 'Ninja MIB'
Step 1. Clear Ninja MIB of all gba games
Step 2. walk to the store next door
Step 3. Sell for 200% profit
Step 4. 8)

Company Websites:
http://www.myexchangefranchise.com/
http://cashinculture.com/
The orphaned media site is down, but two places I know of are 343 Butler Street, (412) 408-3736, and 4115 Brownsville Road, (412) 207-2846. The Brownsville one is brand new.

This is quite helpful. I don't know how much time I'll have free today, but I'll see if I can stop by. Thanks!

I haven't seen much. The Exchange stores are decent, but nothing you can't find anywhere else. Sort of like a Gamestop if they'd keep selling older games. Gonna have to check out Ninja MIB!

I ended up with not enough time, so didn't check any of these. Maybe next time!
