    It looks an extremely well stocked shop Dale, noticed a few tasty items, SMS Power Strike II and Steel Battalion stood out to me
    You need a job on the Swindon tourist board 👍✌️

    I have a rule for visiting new shops here in the US. The first thing I do is look to see how much they are charging for Pac-Man for the Atari 2600. There are as many copies of that game than there are working consoles. If they're charging more than a few dollars for the game then I know what to expect in the rest of the store. I'm happy to say that my local shops are reasonably priced. But I went into a shop on vacation/holiday and noticed that some of the prices seemed high. Sure enough, they were asking $10 for Pac-Man, so I turned around and left.

      Good way of doing it! Always worth tryna haggle prices too, especially if buying a few items! Cheers for watching

    Awesome shop, fairly sure I've seen someone else showcase it, maybe Alex?
    Definitely a place I would like to visit but it's a fair track for me.

      Yeah Alex is local to this one mate! Worth a road trip at some point!

    Oh wow i remember seeing this on Seans video, id love to visit this shop he looks to have some amazing items!
    Great vid Dale and far better than the wondering around filming racks of games type vids that others do!

    Always good to see you and the family Dale and thanks for doing another great video. Regarding the Lara statues it’s not a case of sitting on them it’s more of a case they are in storage and buried behind 30 years of buying other stuff 🤦🏼 it’s just one of those jobs that I keep meaning to do but with running the shop and sorting the masses of new stock arriving it keeps ending up on the back burner 😂
    One day…………
    Hope to see you soon

      Cheers Pete! Haha, sure Natasha will get her hands on one one day 🤞 😄 shop has gotten better and better over the years, both love visiting and seeing what's new! Thanks for watching mate

    Cracking little shop, wish we had something like that in Glasgow 😭

    Nice review Dale. We did end up in the centre of Swindon once by mistake.
    We went around the Magic Roundabout, that was an adventure.
    In the end it turned out we weren't supposed to be in the centre of Swindon anyway 🤷

    • @DaleyRetro

      Cheers Claire, highly recommend it for a day out, plenty of nice places to eat and shop near the retro games hq!

    • @RetroClaire

      Yes, it's not too far really either. My Mum is in Weston so it could be worth planning in one time.
      The Magic Roundabout is a bit scary though 😄
