It’s the end of May and that means it’s time for the The Thievius Raccoonus Sale!

What does that mean exactly?

Well, it means for today and tomorrow pre-played games are 14% off (in store and online).

So there’s no confusion we’re talking May 29th and May 30th. It’s for all pre played games for all systems. The sale also includes game guides.

On top of that we recently lowered the prices on a ton of games for the current generation consoles. You can find those in the sale section of the website.

You may be asking yourself what does Thievius Raccoonus have to do with anything and what’s with the 14%?

It’s really quite simple. Recently we started played the Sly Cooper series at home. It’s a really fun game with a whole Ocean’s 11 kinda feel. Kids love it, I love it, it’s good. The Thieves Raccoonus is the Sly family book with all the knowhow on thieving. Plus on the corny side with 14% of the games are practically a steal! (Har har har). For the 14% you can thank a D20 for that.

Happy shopping!

Some new things in the shop - honourable mention for the 2 New 3DS XL consoles, something we don’t see too often!

More updates once I finish cleaning up and listing some bigger trade ins in the next few days. Some weeks it’s slow going as I’m a one man operation but you can be certain your new finds will be worthy of being added to your collection.

Have a great day! 😎🌞

Open 9-5 today! 🥳 Here are a couple games that deserve a spot on the feed.

It’s another week at the Retro Room and I’m jazzes to show off some of the latest trade ins. We’d had a few customers bring in some Switch games last week and they’re ready to go.

The Nintendo Switch is a great console and has the largest selection of Physical games out there. It would be tough for any collector to get them all and then the question is how much shelf space do you need?

The Switch isn’t the strongest console on the market but proof that you don’t need to be a tank in power to run great games.

Swipe to see some of the latest pre-played Switch titles and check out the whole selection in store or online.

A few that I’d like to highlight are:

Pokemon Pearl and Diamond Double Pack - Because 2 Pokemon games are better than 1.

Dragon Quest XI S - For the 2D old school style.

River City Girls - Great Beat em up.

Blossom Tales - Limited Run and limited.

P4G Golden - The Persona series is quite an experience.

Have a great week!

Welcome to the Retro Room!

We’re a Retro Video Game shop located in Carleton Place, Ontario. Been open for over 3 years and we pride ourselves on great selection, fair trades, sticker-less pre played games and a friendly place to visit.

Rather than show all the cool new trades we’ve had recently (you can check our stories for those 😉) I figured it’d be nice to take pictures around the shop.

Since we started the shop we’ve more than doubled in size and quadrupled in selection. I won’t claim to have the most games in all of Ontario or Canada but we have some damn good options.



Photo 1 | This wall changes all the time. It’s full of some of the more sought after games from all different systems.

Photo 2 | I love controllers and try to keep a good variety. We have from casual to serious gamer level choices. Some of the brands include, Retro Fighters, CRKD and 8bitdo.

Photo 3 | Guides are amazing. I always say a great way to replay the game without putting 30 hours in.

Photo 4 | We have a good range of accessories for most consoles and adapters to hook them up via HDMI.

Photo 5 | One of my favorite sections is the Legend of Zelda and Pokemon cabinet.

Photo 6 | The PS1 section (one of my favourites) has recently been updated with over 130 new titles.

Photo 7 | Plushies!

Photo 8 | The Jungle Green 64! and surrounded by Skylander Trap Crystals (the Skylander figures are in store only).

Photo 9 | Amiibos are still very fun to collect and there’s a lot of them all around the shop.

Photo 10 | ROB! The hero of gaming and presenter of business cards for the shop.



Have a great weekend everyone and I hope to see you in the shop soon.
