    Any gaming stores that sell old vintage hardware, Sega Genesis/Sega CD/Sega Saturn/Dreamcast... All I need now is some games, I don't want to download anything, I want actual copies....

    Gamestop sucks, they don't sell retro gaming stuff.. There's gotta be a store dedicated to retro gaming and a targeted demographic that's into this, right???

    There is one in Cypress, not sure about other locations, but they definitely have a lot of old hardware and games there.

    There's a store call game world inside greenspoint mall. They have everything from what you are asking for. Price is ebayish. Unless you hit up the Maya's game located inside traders village. Lots of NES and sega games galore at a reasonable price.

    *True story @maya's game. Me and my friends picked up a gold nintendo world championship game cartridge and thought WTH is this and putted back only to find out it's worth 15k later when yahoo wrote an article about the value of it on ebay. Every since then we would go back to see if it's still there. We regret not searching for the value of it on our mobile phone. Now anything that is odd looking I'll definitely have my phone out and ready

    They are few and far between. We used to have Rhino Video Games where I live but they were bought out by Gamestop. There is a huge place in Midwest City, OK that sells them, but that would be a long way to travel for some used games.
