4Jays Video Games

Don’t be deterred by its rag-​tag appearance. Though small, this store has a LOT of vintage gaming equipment software. Everything from Atari 2600 to Xbox One. Their libraries of games are impressive. If you are into retro gaming, it might take you a while to look through it all. I know it did for me.

I’ve visited your store on 1÷21÷16 at 3:30 p.m.and I was so surprised the prices and service I’ve received it come a long drive from Cotati in Sonoma County and is definitely worth the drive I’ve heard you have in business for 17 years. I hope you stay strong with your business and hope the best in near future Sincerity yours: Jasondea3​7​@​gmail.​com

I come to Antioch once a year and when I do I always stop here at 4jays. If you are an old school gamer like myself this is the place. I talked to the ol’man and he knows a technician that can fix intellivision consoles. They have just about everything here. My last visit I completed my NES black box game collection. The only game I didn’t have was volleyball and the prices are very reasonable. Every year I come here and I never leave empty handed.

Awesome video store! Great products and great customer service! Ryan is rad and always a pleasure! He makes shopping for retro videos games so easy! Reasonable prices too!

Best retro videogame store! If you are looking for anything from the Atari 2600 to the newer stuff stop by. Good family owned place and massive respect for their collection of retro goodies. I visit every three months or so to contribute to what I believe is a NorCal institution.

4Jays is a great store.
The staff is knowledgable of their stock and will help you as best as they can.
You never need to explain the item you need. If you say «dualshock» they’ll say «which color?» if you ask for Donkey Kong 64, they’ll say «Would you like an N64 expansion pak with that?» They have consoles and games from every generation.
The lady who answers the phone is very nice and will actually get up and look at the stock if you need an item. The man however doesn’t seem to bother. I asked for RE2 on PS1 and he just said «no, we dont have it» without even thinking. I called back the next day and asked for the same game, and the lady who answered got up and rummaged through the display to see if it was in stock. It was! Contrary to what the guy said.
Basically, this is an above average classic video game store. Although, the store exterior isnt very inviting. It’s connected to a mechanic shop and it looks like a part of the mechanics. Hell, if it wasnt for the sign I’d just assume the dusty, barred windowed store was the office of the mechanics.
I guess my only complaint is… The guy working there isn’t exactly friendly and its uninviting exterior. Otherwise I’d give it a ⁴⁄₅

For game stores I think 4jays has the best prices.
The people who work there seem like family and friends and I like that. They are usually nice to me and let me do my thing and dont bother me. I like that. Last time I was there I saw an older lady refurbing a Nes and that made me maddd jealous lol I wish my mom could do that.
anyways …
WHATS GOOD — prices, good selection and nice hands on shopping displays and organization.
WHATS NOT SO GOOD– I’ve had issues with a couple games. I bought a shenmue for a crazy nice price of 20 dollars but disc one isnt working. and a copy of immortal for nes which hasnt worked
overall I love this shop and you should most definitely give it a try. Just maybe test stuff out before making any major purchases…

I agree the service may not be as good as Phoenix Games however the service was still good. The Prices are even better! I give this ⁵⁄₅ because in the end for me great service is nice but the low prices are what won me over! I will be returning! They have everything from atari-​ps3.

My brother and I absolutely love this store and their selection is great. It’s really two bad the people that work here are… not very friendly?

Went there after many recommendations and the special episode of game center cx showed their store I decided to give them a visit. At first I thought I was in an abandoned area of town. When I went inside they have a big collection of games at a fair price. Most of the stuff I was looking for wasn’t in stock since it was hard to find but they took my name and number down with the items I wanted with a smile. They were super friendly. I managed to get a copy of E.T. On the Atari 2600 and Shaq Fu on the SNES for 2.99 and 1.95 respectively. The staff were super friendly and engaged into conversation with me with no hesitation. They just earned a new customer in me. Though I live in the east bay I am will to drive out there to show my support after a fantastic first impression.

I drove a long way to get to 4Jays and then braved the sketchy streets of Antioch to get to a little tiny store with bars on the window that pretty much looked closed. When I walked in, I think somebody said hi to me, but it may have just been the sound of the door creaking shut behind me. I guess the prices were ok, but everything looked VERY used and not in the best of shape. There was a decent selection of vintage Atari carts and hardware which is probably the store’s strength. Other than that, it was a grab bag of common carts and discs and some loose systems.
I was the only person in the store, but neither of the two girls behind the counter bothered to talk to me or ask me if I needed any help. Anybody who’s ever worked retail knows that you’ve got to engage a customer and make them feel welcome if you ever want to sell anything! If I want this quality and selection of games, Games & Electronics in Fremont is a lot closer and the people are way more friendly.
Maybe I should open my own videogame store? I’ve got a way better selection!

Found this store thanks to a show called gamecenter cx, store has lots of variety in terms of retro games. its a nice visit if you want to see some of your childhood games. Though it will be hard to find the specific game you want, there are lots that you will see that you wouldnt even think about getting. It is a nice trip back to memory lane. The prices are really low too so if you are a big retro game collector in sega, or nintendo games, maybe even older like atari you should definitely visit

I went to check out the store because I like the older game systems like N64. While I walked around the store, the two employees simply sat behind the counter. The boy was playing a game and the older man seemed to be watching tv. They never acknowledged me even when I was at the counter. Basically there was no such thing as customer service.
The store itself was dirty and unorganized.
The pricing was reasonable but I decided not spend any money since they didn’t even care that I was interested in making a purchase.

Me and my boy Tim were hungover as fuck one morning and decided to check 4 jays out. This place pretty much has every single console system you can think of for sale. 3DO? check, Jaguar? check, Neo Geo? check. I’ve been wanting to buy a SNES since I threw mine in the trash a long time ago (FUCK!) so I wanted to see if they had any for sale. Not only did they have one but they also have some weird over seas version of the SNES as well.
Our little trip was cut short because I had a major case of the morning after shits that you get from a night of binge drinking. The denver omelette from matchmakers didn’t help either.
