Games Ahoy Loveland North

North Loveland's Games Ahoy keeps its high-end Magic in a dedicated binder priced off TCGplayer, with One Piece sealed and out-of-print Pokemon sourced to order.

The West 64th Street store serves north Loveland and Johnstown-side traffic that would otherwise drive down to Eisenhower. Same chain, same mix — retro consoles and current-gen games against a wall, trading cards in the cases — but the card operation here has a specific character worth knowing.

High-value Magic singles live in a dedicated binder rather than loose in a case, priced off TCGplayer. That's efficient if you know what you're looking for; at least one reviewer found the markup above market and said so publicly. One Piece sealed boxes are carried at premium pricing, which drew the same critique. Out-of-print Pokemon gets sourced from the secondary market and resold in store, a practice the owner has confirmed openly in review replies rather than obscuring. Read all of that as a shop that will get you the card and won't pretend it's a bargain.

What customers consistently praise is the people. Matt gets named repeatedly for the welcome, and there's a military and veteran discount mentioned by more than one reviewer. Staff will call the Fort Collins, Loveland South, and Longmont stores to locate stock, and the owner replies to Google reviews within weeks — including the critical ones.

The rest of the shelves cover Japanese-language game imports, a large retro console wall, board games, and the plush, figures, and import snacks the chain stocks across all four locations. Trade-ins run cash or store credit with the same ninety-day working guarantee on preowned items.

Hours match the sister store: 11AM to 8PM Monday through Saturday, noon to 7PM Sunday. With a 4.6 average across more than 570 Google reviews, this is the busiest card and game counter on the north side of town.
