Game On Video Games & Sports Memorabilia

Dewey Ave shop blending retro video games with sports cards, autographs, and Western NY's only authorized Beckett grading submission and JSA dealer counter.

Game On sits on Dewey Avenue and splits its identity neatly down the middle: retro and modern video games on one side, sports and non-sport trading cards on the other. That mix pulls in a wider crowd than a card-only shop, and it makes the store a fun stop even for collectors browsing between hits.

The card side is the draw for hobbyists. Singles, packs, and boxes share space with autographs, memorabilia, and collecting supplies, and the showcase holds graded slabs and standout pieces. What really distinguishes Game On is its credentials: it's Western New York's only authorized Beckett grading submission center and a JSA-authorized dealer, so submitting cards for grading or authenticating signatures can be handled in-house.

That service angle makes the shop a practical resource for sports-card collectors across the Rochester area who'd otherwise mail submissions away. The staff handle walk-in collections, buy-sell-trade deals, and grading questions with the kind of specifics that come from actually running the process.

Hours run Tuesday through Saturday, opening at 10AM most days and closing by 7PM, with shorter Saturday hours and Sunday and Monday closed, so plan visits midweek or early Saturday. For trading cards Rochester collectors want graded, authenticated, or simply browsed alongside a wall of video games, Game On covers a niche few local shops do.
