Power 9 Games anchors the North Las Vegas tabletop scene on Craig Road with deep Magic and Pokemon singles, nightly tournaments, and a packed open-play floor.
Since opening in 2014, Power 9 Games has grown into the steady heartbeat of the North Las Vegas card shop community, tucked into a Craig Road strip a few minutes off the I-15. Step inside and the layout tells you everything: rows of folding tables fill the back for organized play, while the front counter and wall pegs hold sealed product and a working singles inventory built for actual deck-builders, not just window shoppers.
Magic: The Gathering is the house specialty, and the staff keep binders of Standard, Pioneer, and Commander staples within reach, but the shop casts a wider net than most. Pokemon players pick through singles and sealed Elite Trainer Boxes, Yu-Gi-Oh regulars trade across the counter, and the board-game and miniatures shelves give families and war-gamers a reason to linger. If you are hunting Pokemon cards in North Las Vegas without driving across town, this is the closest dedicated game store to the Aliante and Craig corridor.
The calendar is what regulars actually show up for. Weeknights mean Commander pods and Friday Night Magic, weekends bring sanctioned tournaments and casual pickup games, and the long daily hours — open until 10pm most nights and past 10:30 on Fridays and Saturdays — make it easy to swing by after work for a few rounds. The crowd skews friendly and welcoming to newcomers, a reputation the owners have leaned into for over a decade.
Practical notes for a first visit: parking is free in the shared lot, the play space is air-conditioned (no small thing in a Vegas summer), and the shop runs buylist and trade-in offers if you are looking to move a collection. Sundays close a touch earlier at 9:30pm, so plan a later-afternoon stop if you want table time. For a traditional brick-and-mortar trading cards North Las Vegas experience, Power 9 remains the local default.
