Depends on where in VA you're headed, it is a big state after all.

There's a place called Starland in Annandale (Northern Virginia) that's pretty good.

The only other place is Pandora's Cube, which personally I would avoid at all costs for a number of reasons.

The Starland Phoenix mentioned is probably the best. There is another starland in centreville as well, but they don't have as big of a selection. Check out Pandora's Cube in Springfield if you are into bootleg anime.

I'm going to the Ashland area.

Down I-95 by Richmond? I think there are a few members who live down there, Tiptonium might be one of them.


If you are driving down, I think you will pass Starland and Pandora's cube on your way. They are both on the same road, like ten minutes from eachother. 95 follows 495 (capital beltway) for some distance. I think in MD the 95 junction with 495 will split. There will be an exit for 495 west, and 495/95 south towards richmond. You will obviously be taking the south exit. I think there is an exit off 95 for Backlick road in Springfield. Pandora's Cube is right off backlick road in the Springfield Plaza shopping center. There is a K-Mart there. Starland is in the shopping center that is on the corner of Braddock and Backlick.

Lynchburg has a good VG store??! . I remember stopping in the Lynchburg best buy to pick up Power Stone 2 about two years ago while I was down there.

29 south turns into no where land. I remember seeing a deer tied up in a guys yard on one trip down to southern VA.

WOW eek! someone else on here who has been to my neck of the woods (besides SN K')

there is a store called The Vault that has a large selection of old games for nearly every system (except the neo of course )

so what part of the state do you hail from?
