Remember back to your childhood when you would race home to play Space Invaders or Mario? The evolution of the game has come along way since then with the likes of Grand Theft Auto 5's budget in the rumored range of $265 million!

The Book Bin has walked with you though most of those games, buying, selling and trading... PLUS we enjoy those same games ourselves!

Saturday, January 25th marks our first Retro Day Day where people of all walks of life can come down and socialize with people of common interest. Buying, selling and trading will be happening during the day as well as systems will be set up for people to try "going back in time" and relive a bit of youth.

Mike Young of The Book Bin says, " I'm still a kid at heart and can't wait to get people together to talk and play a few games! We will be busy with demos and just obtained a huge selection of retro games  from Winnipeg to be able to join in the fun."

Retro Game Day is totally free! Come down and spend time with fellow people and maybe even try a competition!

The Book Bin is located on 260 Third Ave, Timmins and remember parking is free on the weekends. Besides the street parking, there is parking behind and beside the Timmins Transit and ONR bus terminal.
