What Makes Shopping at The Old School Game Vault So Great?

Dear reader, since you are on this page, allow us to make a few assumptions about you. You are a connoisseur.

Your childhood was awesome because you spent it with Mario, Zelda and games without 15-minute cinematics. You are tired of the escalating graphics and shaders arms race and long for a simpler time when games were about gameplay and fun.

You are a gamer of exquisite taste and aren’t easily swayed by marketing hyperbole. Your prowess with a Nintendo or Atari controller is legendary.  You drive the gaming conversation in your circle, often interjecting to point out where a popular game mechanic originated back in the day.  You want the best retro gaming experience money can buy.  Well, you’re in luck because we have exactly what you need.

Let’s talk a little bit about why you should buy used video games online from The Old School Game Vault.

1. Authenticity

There’s nothing worse than spending your hard-earned dollars buying a copy of a video game you once loved, sitting down on a Friday evening to play it and discovering that you were sold a completely different game. Or worse, the game you bought is simply a cheap knock-off of the real thing.

At OSGV, we are extremely meticulous about every single item we add to our library – whether it’s a copy of your favorite Castlevania game or a controller or memory card for your retro game console. Everything is absolutely authentic, and we are available at a moment’s notice to offer support for your purchase.
