[QUOTE="Herschel, post: 4839299, member: 78357"] It's hard for me to name a "favorite" here in the Twin Cities. "The Source Games & Comics" is the biggest, and I used to live across the street. Nice selection and good staff. "The Monster Den" is South Minneapolis is different from The Source. It and "Dreamers" in Saint Louis Park are owned by the same guy, Jason, who treated skirmishers very, very well. The Den has much of its space dedicated to gaming, including console games, and isn't as heavy on product. Dreamers is a smaller space. "Village Games" in Anoka is fun and moved from it's cool, old Post Office location to an also cool building by the river. Carl and Dan are good guys. Dan makes great terrain. The have a good selection of board games too. "Outpost 2000" has two locations, one not far from where I live now and the older location in Brooklyn Park. Jeff, Colleen and crew are very friendly too. "Unicorn Games" in Oakdale is also a friendly store in a small-to-medium space. I'm forgetting the owner's name at the moment (Jeff?), but he's a very nice guy and has always treated gamers well. "Misty Mountain Games North" in Burnsville has HUGE amounts of gaming space. The parent store is in Madison, WI and I was treated very well on my two trips in there. Speaking of Madison, Pegasus Games on Odana Road was my stomping grounds while I lived there. The State Street store is closed now, I think. Gone, but not forgotten: When I was at UW Milwaukee, Napolean Games in Shorewood was home. It was a short walk from campus and had tons of cool stuff from miniature war gaming stuff and killer chess sets to RPGS. Just a great store. My first FLGS was "The Next Generation" in La Crosse, WI. It, and my RA sophmore year at UW La Crosse, opened my eyes to the amazing world of gaming beyond the curiosities and interst I had in my childhood. [/QUOTE]
