Lost Ark Video Games

I'm a Japanese working in the US. This arcade is awesome. Thank you for your love of Japanese games. After 35years, FINAL FIGHT's skill has not declined.

Lost Ark is genuinely the best video game store I’ve ever been to. From games, to anime, to manga, to plushies, to collectibles - Lost Ark really has it all. The vibes in the store are immaculate- a cozy, cute atmosphere with great synth music always playing. The games and selection are great, but what makes Lost Ark special is the people. Everyone from top to bottom is kind, welcoming, and great. I’ve never had an instance where I didn’t immediately feel like a part of the community they’ve worked so hard to build. Daniel and Kenzi have cultivated an incredible team (but more like a family) and always go the extra mile for the people who visit Lost Ark. If you’re local, or not, and love video games, there’s no reason to go anywhere but here.

Absolutely Awesome store!!! They have an incredible selection of NES, SNES, SEGA and GAMEBOY games. They also have a vast variety of other items related to other game stuff! Very knowledgeable, helpful and friendly staff!!! I will be going in every time that I am in Greensboro!!!!!

Fantastic selection of games, consoles, video game-related merch, and more. There were a ton of handhelds and I was able to pick up a Game Boy Pocket in silver that I've always wanted as a kid. Staff are extremely friendly and welcoming. Cheers!

This is such a fun store, whether you're looking for a specific retro game or just want to kill some time in the arcade, this little store is the epitome of what makes Greensboro unique. This place isn't owned by corporate overlords, and is a safe and inviting place for women which can be a rare find for game stores. Kenzi (one of the owners) is really helpful and nice to chat with. I really hope Greensboro does a good job of keeping this place in business because this spot is really what we need in the city and in the gaming community.

Lost Ark was one of the first local businesses I found when I moved to Greensboro years ago- and its been one of my favorite places for years now. The staff are so kind and friendly, the store always has accessible prices, + the arcade is a blast (and there's an arcade cat). This business has always been supportive of local artists, and participates in community events. The values of the staff and store are so warm, inclusive, and bright. Plainly, any negative reviews insulting the staff is uninformed, biased, or rude conjecture.

Unfortunately cannot recommend Lost Ark due to the staff. I overheard the manager and another employee making disgruntled comments and jokes about customers from the front of the store. I could not distinguish if they were referring to my partner, who was chatting with the owner for a while about the arcade and seemed to be having a nice conversation. However, regardless if they decided to be rude about a previous shopper or a patron literally still in the store, it felt catty and uncalled for. To say all this within earshot of current shoppers is careless. To say your biggest pet peeve is when customers say they "come here all the time" when maybe you don’t see them often, is incredibly childish: as if that isn’t a common phrase for making small talk at a place you enjoy visiting. The whole act inadvertently made our visit feel unwelcome. After browsing through their responses to negative reviews, it’s easy to see professionalism is not something they value or practice. I’m sure I will get my own witty comeback to excuse their poor behavior! Spend your money elsewhere, at bare minimum where you will not be belittled while supporting their business.
