Meet The Owners
Michiko and Tetsuya

Big Kids At Heart
Perfect Owners For RetroRares

A Couple That Games Together...

Michiko and I met in the 80s as two kids obsessed with this new fangled past time called video games.
It was love at first sight and after decades of being together, we decided to share our love of retro gaming.
With the kids out of the house, opening a retro video game store seemed like the logical choice for us.

Knowledge is Power

Tetsuya's intimate knowledge of RPGs and action adventure games has never ceased to amaze me.
I myself am more knowledgeable about platformer and traditional fighting games.
We compliment each other in that way I think and has proved invaluable in running our store.

Teach An Old Dog New Tricks...

Many people think that after a certain point in life, you are "too old" to learn new things. My wife and I are living proof that, if anything, the opposite is true.
I myself have learned how to delicately clean consoles inside and out while she has learned how to modify them to extract the maximum performance possible.
See for yourself and book a "Service" appointment with us at our store RetroRares today. We've become quite proficient at performing exorcisms on supposedly "dead" consoles.
