Press Start To Play

Very knowledgeable staff and the store itself has an insane collection of some of the rarer and better preserved games I have see. If you are looking for video games, card games or board games this would be my first stop. They also offer the best trade in values I have ever seen.

For just dropping in to say hello, it’s a pretty rad little spot! Plus the shop dog Rue was a fun little treat!

If you are in Northern Idaho and you love video games, Press Start to Play is a must visit.
I travel around quite a bit and I am always looking for unique games to pick up for my collection. Each time I have stopped by this place, I have walked out with something cool. The staff obviously loves gaming and are very knowledgable and willing to chat. Their prices are also very fair, especially when compared to their competition in nearby Spokane. On my most recent trip to the Northern expanses of Idaho, I hit every game store from Spokane to CDA and the only place I bought anything was Press Start To Play. These guys have a knack of finding stuff that I just don’t see that often and while their selection isn’t as big as some of the other guys, the quality of what they do have is much better.
The only reason I don’t give these guys five stars is because I wish they had a selection and store as big as their devotion to awesome customer service and quality games. Like I tell them every time I visit, if they ever wanted to start a store in Boise, they would do well and they would get all of my business.

A quality, local shop. I walked in and was immediately greeted, by a friendly clerk. After offering a fair value for my trade-​in, retro video games, I looked around and was impressed by the variety of finds. They had more unique gaming items than most bigger shops. Lots of folks playing card games at their group tables and a good energy. If you’re a collector or avid fan of old school video game consoles and accessories, this is the place to be. Reasonable prices and great games. I’ll be back.

Great prices, great selection! I love supporting local businesses, and absolutely love going here! The staff is helpful and friendly, and every visit is a pleasure.
