Our Story
 

The Local Go-to Shop for Video Games, Gaming Accessories, and Collectibles for more than 25 Years

Aiming to exceed expectations of what a video game store can be; our goal is to provide the best possible customer service experience in addition to offering an extensive selection of gaming products to suit every individual.

Equipped with our shared passion and knowledge, we have continuously expanded our product selection over the years while still offering a wide selection of the classics we all love. In addition to our various brick and mortar locations including our sister store, Cool Stuff, we strive to provide a superior online shopping experience to ensure that we will be able to continue to serve our customers for generations to come.

A Humble Beginning & A Growing Future

Founder and original owner Tami Leary started only on a small lot of Nintendo games in a Virginia Beach flea market. Quick to turn a customer into a friend, and even quicker to lend a helping hand - Tami found success by devoting her passion for games and retail to her store. More than 25 years later we remain inspired by Tami's ethics and drive to stand out from the competition. To this day we place special importance on gaming culture and for the people who desire an alternative to the impersonal experience bigger stores have become synonymous with.

Since 1994 Video Game Heaven has grown and evolved from its flea market roots - transforming itself into more than just a game store. Thanks to the support of our customers and passionate staff,  you can continue to expect bigger and better things from us down the road.

Who is Mango the Cat?

Mango, our official mascot, is an orange tabby cat that you're bound to see on decals, pins, apparel, and art in our stores and website. Mango is based on the original owner's cat by the same name. During the earlier years of the company, Mango could sometimes be seen in the store accompanying our staff and customers.

Although Mango is no longer with us, we keep his memory alive by capturing his personality as our mascot. You'll likely see him engaged or exploring something in the gaming world! Visit our stores or online shop to browse all the ways you can add Mango to your own home.
