Toys R Us was really special for me as a kid. Especially when my local one ran yugioh tournaments.

We still have Toys R Us and Party City here, and they seem to be doing fine. Blockbuster isn't really needed anymore. Old school Radio Shack would be pretty cool though.
Hello fellow Canadian

Friendlies still exist I saw one just a month or two ago
I live 5 minutes from a friendlys and 15 minutes from another. They're still out there

Circuit City. I grew up on CompUSA but CC had better prices, if I remember right from my childhood. Then CU died, then CC died, then FE died, now all we have is shitty BB.
My CC I got to go 'in the back' to watch then replace a psu that died and I correctly diagnosed, back in like... 03? Two techs for the store, super chill, talked me through the process. I've been building and repairing my own systems ever since. They told me to let them know when I was 16, they'd put in a good word for me after we chatted for about an hour. By the time I could legally work, the writing was on the wall, and CC died before I turned 17.
I wonder where those guys are at now. I thought I knew what I was doing, but they were so kind in explaining everything, answering every question, giving me confirmation about all sorts of stuff. I really hope they are doing well. They couldn't have been mid-20s at the time.
Micro center is the last real computer store. I miss egghead

I miss Fry's. It was nice if you were building your own PC to go in and get parts immediately. Amazon with their unfair no-taxes that crippled big box stores and mom and pop's, and Netflix for videos by mail (remember getting DVD's in the mail?) and then streaming began wiping out most of these, except Friendly's.

That's not even a question, the spirit of radioshack with 2025 technology, that would be awesome !
I just want to be able to run down the street to buy a pack of overpriced unmarked capacitors anytime I need.

Old Radio Shack, not that thing from 2015 that was functionally a brick and mortar cellphone stand.
Sadly the new one is all I have memories of

Movie store. Movie night was magical.

I know party city was closing out their inventory earlier this year.
Toys r us... I know it doesn't exist here anymore. Hasn't for a while. Where did you see one?
There is one at the American dream mall in New Jersey. They are also starting to pop-up in some Macy’s as their own section.

RadioShack, with the drawers of capacitors and resistors.
I could see them have an entire section for RC cars and drones today.

We have a few around me still. One in my town and one in the neighboring town. A bit pricey but I try to get what I can there since a best buy just opened up near them.

If they’re like they were in their heyday (innovative computer tech), RadioShack for sure.
