Incorrect and missing cords

Purchased a Nintendo 64 and was very excited about it as I’ve wanted to relive the glory days a little bit. But the AV cable came with RCA connectors on both sides so I can’t even plug it into the console. In addition the power supply cord was from NTSC region (rectangle port) while console is from PAL region (D shaped port). Now I need to spend even more money to hopefully get it all working together.

Great app, great store, great prices

Recently got into collecting old old consoles and previous gen of games. Retro Jake’s is a game changer, great prices and great service. Plus the app works seamlessly when making a purchase. Recommend for Anyone getting in to retro gaming.

Great prices

I just ordered a ps5 and a extra controller for a really cheap price it was easy to find even though I haven’t gotten it yet it was a good price easy to access highly recommend buying stuff here

Still Got A Bug

I’m trying to check out The Adventures of Tintin for the PS3, but the checkout page appears blank. You guys have a lot of great stuff though. Love your YouTube vids.

No stock

There is almost nothing in stock

U have to go threw string to even use the ads they so they can shove there ads in your face. Just

Go to sky oldies or game flip there apps aren’t as complicated and they work

Messager in the app

I would love to message the owner just to see if I could get a soul silver I trust him by just watching his YouTube videos but I really don’t want to be ripped off I want a fair price. And a way to communicate with someone from the store on the app would be really cool.

Needs more Photos

I like the TikTok’s this guys posts but as for the buying from the website I am hesitant. The video games don’t let you know if it’s cib or loose copies and there’s no photos to verify if it’s cib or disk/cart only. There’s no photos of the physical item they’re selling just a google image which is fine for most stuff but for items that are hundreds of dollars it would be nice to have a photo of what you’re buying

Response from developer

We're sorry you had a bad experience. We're doing our best to keep up with the orders, and we're constantly striving to improve.

It a scam still waiting for my order I have emailed the guy no response ima contact my bank

Sucks

Empty app

Can’t find anything on your app tbh

Wayyyy too many notifications

every 3 hours sends notifications of the most pointless messages same code JAKE15. way too over priced on literally everything

Trouble handling success?

I love the YouTube content, and thought I would try out this seemingly reputable dealer as the store seems quite popular. Just called to check on an order placed last week as (2) separate emails went unanswered. Young lady stated she is currently 200 online orders behind and not to expect any tracking or shipment info for at least 3-4 more days. Wouldn’t be that big of a deal if the communication were better, however the only communication is the cryptic bot messages saying Jake doesn’t have admin access, but still plugging the 15% discount. Hope to hear something concrete soon.

Way to many notifications

I like the app but it’s constantly blowing up my phone

Amazing customer service

All the team is amazing and Jake is hot

Response from developer

Thanks, I'll let Jake know.

Good But…

The app itself is great but the fact that the inventory in the app isn’t anywhere as extensive as the inventory I see in the shorts on YouTube is sad. I’ve seen so many things that I would love to buy but can’t since I live nowhere near the store. Hopefully one day the inventory will be as extensive.

My honest opinion

I’m new to retro game sellers so take what I’m saying with a pinch of salt but I love the app it has almost everything I want. The only thing I wish it had was a personal request(commission) option in the app where you would spend more to get what you wanted if it isn’t available but other than that whoever designed the app deserves a raise

Response from developer

Thanks for the review, and for the kind words. I'll ask Jake about that raise :D

Predatory

This app sends too many notifications! It’s non stop and way too much as much as I love Jacob this app has to go! It takes his good name and makes it just clickbait trash!

Response from developer

Sorry about that, we've found a bug in the notification settings, and we're working on a fix. In the meantime, browse our shop at retrojakesonline.com for no-notification shopping.

Great

Seams to work very well for me.

Nice

The app sends a message like every hr lol

Response from developer

Don't forget to use JAKE15
