Any good shops in the Las Vegas area?

Anyone from the Las Vegas area know of any good dedicated video game/comic book/anime stores in the area? My wife and I are going there for a little vacation in March.

Why would you do that? Vegas has so much more to offer.

Oh, we're definitely going to gamble, see shows, and do the typical tourist stuff. Just want to check out some cool shops if there's any in the area.

For games, you could hit up A Gamer's Paradise. It's near the Pinball Hall of Fame, which is a must-visit whenever anyone is in town. I haven't been to A Gamer's Paradise in a bit, so I can't vouch for their current pricing or selection. But, it has been pretty decent in the past.

As far as comics, Alternate Reality Comics and Cosmic Comics are the best places to go.

Gamer's Paradise is in the shopping center right next to the Pinball Hall of Fame. He's got a great selection of stuff at good prices. Word from the wise, take the bus if you're coming from The Strip. The cabbies in Vegas are the fucking worst and they'll take you all the way around the city when it's only down two streets, even with traffic it's quicker. You can get a deal on a bus pass that will last you three days for less then one way to Gamer's Paradise/Pinball Hall of Fame.

Wasn't too impressed with Gamer's Paradise. I stopped by there after Pinball Hall of Fame (which you must go to) and everything I wanted to buy was priced checked on ebay at the counter before checkout. And the guy that ran it seemed unbalanced; not a pleasant shopping experience.
