CeX Is Revisiting Its 'Retro-Only' Store Concept And Returning To The World Of Imports, According To New Rumour

"Launching this holiday season or Early 2027". If you've been reading this site for a while, you'll no doubt be aware that I have a particular fondness for Computer Exchange, otherwise known as CeX. This isn't based on the modern-day iteration of the store, I should note, but the original '90s and 2000s format, which was focused almost entirely on video games and even extended to Japanese and North American imports. I got my Japanese Dreamcast from CeX close to launch, as well as systems like the Neo Geo Pocket Color and Bandai WonderSwan. Read the full article on timeextension.com
