Portland video game hunting - cd game exchange

Amidst the normal shopping , managed to make our way to tis shop tat offered both music paraphernalia as well as video games. Called "cd game exchange", it was located along  N Mississippi road

For the games, the shop carried a spread..but nothing really fantastic lest a number of boxed NES games, like zelda, mega man 2 . Prices were correspondingly high like 40 for boxed mega man 2, so i din enquire further .

Settled for some cheap ps2 games for total of 7.50... rest of the stuff not really worth it. Haha

Seattle video game hunting - pink gorilla

For tis seattle trip ..did some video game hunting.. managed to locate this shop called pink gorilla

Situated along S King Street which was in the midst of chinatown, its not exactly where u will expect a video game shopfront. Nonetheless this little shop provides quite an offering in terms of range - there were atari , NES, SNES, sega genesis,  sega saturn, sega cd , ps1 2 3 , xbox, gamecube , DS , GBA ... not many fantastic titles but at least prices were reasonable ... eg $2 for NES sports titles, $6 for average range non sports titles .. can say ard ebay pricing

Staff were frenly , n could hold a chat with customers on video game related topics ..  also able to provide help when requested

In the end purchased a number of cib atari games , including 1 sealed cib , for total of $32 .. not bad man
