Really? The post says it was updated July 17th. I'll update it as soon as I get back to my laptop. I have been keeping it alphabetized, though.
Oops my mistake, I was looking at the top, not the edit date by your signature. Silly me, apologies.

Another couple good ones to add
I found a great Retro Store in Las Vegas near the Airport. I wish I had time to visit both locations, picked up an interesting NES cart. Meanwhile here is the info:

Las Vegas Retro Stores

A Gamers Paradise:
1550 E. Tropicana Ave Ste #4
Las Vegas, NV 89110
(702) 432-4700

A Gamers Paradise:
1000 N. Nellis Blvd Ste #C
Las Vegas, NV 89110
(702) 438-2143


I'm surprised there are no stores listed from Nevada, especially from sin city Las Vegas. Seems like hard luck gamblers would be selling their games at pawn shops and game stores to support the habit. :lol:

I found this store right next to the Pinball Hall of Fame Museum

Click and scroll to see a SNES Arcade Cabinet. :shock:

See the "Vic20" keyboard? No, its an Intellivision Keyboard! Piles of NES carts, unfortunately no Famicom adaptors to be found inside any. Lots of neat stuff in the top shelf including a complete ROB NES set. 8)

The NES carts are reasonable, I paid a buck for a Gyromyte non import adaptor cart. Nothing in the Trophy case has a price, the store just recently opened. In fact, they were still posting up signs, hanging a large mylar sign on the window glass when I visited. The owner was not in at the time so the store clerk had to call him for quotes on the rare stuff, I imagine they won't be cheap. Maybe the store has unusual finds because they have do not have a Web site?

Anyone going to this, the Pinball Hall of fame Museum is right next door. :D
