brunsonpark08 Posted November 13, 2009 Share Posted November 13, 2009 I found a couple of pics at a very interesting site called plaidstallions.com Anyway, they have pics of a store called "The Game Peddler". By the Atari and Intellivision systems in the last pic, I am guessing this is from 1979-1980. The pics are stated to come from a Houston mall. Does anyone know which mall or remember the store below? Thanks a bunch! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aldor Posted June 17, 2016 Share Posted June 17, 2016 That was the Willowbrook Mall store and I worked there. Everyone got fired except me under a cloud of theft. It was all crap tho cause they just wanted to replace the staff and had no real reason to do so, hence the trumped up theft accusation. The management said they had video that proved the theft but never produced it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zenjive Posted June 17, 2016 Share Posted June 17, 2016 I vaguely remember going here once to get an atari cartridge we couldn't find anywhere else. I think the spot the store was in is still a game store, Game Stop or something. On the edge of the food court. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonny from 1980 Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 Worked there in Almeda & Baybrook mall back in 1982. NOT a happy place. 2016 & I still grit my teeth thinking about it. Yes, Aldor, your situation wasn't unusual. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DM Charlie Posted February 15, 2020 Share Posted February 15, 2020 Sorry to hear it was a lousy place to work. However, the Game Peddler at Willowbrook Mall has happy memories for me. This is were my junior high self discovered "Dungeons & Dragons". So the quest began here. Thanks for posting these pictures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
