I dont hang around game stores muchwhen you spend most of your waking hours playing and writing about video games, the stores arent quite as appealingbut something about this one really stood out to me.

Maybe it was the free arcade machines, or the rows full of old PS1 role-playing games, or the way the friendly owner assured me that if I couldnt find a game I wanted, I could order with him and get it within a week, guaranteed.

While browsing the shelves, I spotted the coolest thing in the store: a rack of SNES games that werent actually real SNES games.

They were ROM hacksunlicensed reproductions of SNES ROMs like Chrono Trigger: Crimson Echoes and Japan-only releases like Tales of Phantasia placed onto cartridges that can be played on certain devices.

The whole thing made for a nice contrast to the store I usually use, which is, uh, GameStop.

Something about independent game stores will always feel really special.
