The Gamesmen has come a long way since its days selling Atari 2600 and Commodore 64 games out of market stalls across Sydney. As the popularity of video games grew, so too did the humble retailer, setting up a permanent shop in the Penshurst, NSW location it still trades from to this day. Even with the unfortunate passing of founder Angelo Cusumano in 1995, The Gamesmen has remained dedicated to providing Aussies with an extensive range of gaming products at competitive prices, all backed by top-quality customer service.

What does The Gamesmen sell?

No matter what kind of gamer you are, The Gamesmen is sure to have something for you. From new-release PS4, Xbox One and Nintendo Switch titles to original N64 consoles and classic Atari Lynx games, the retailer has one of the most diverse games libraries available in Australia.

Other than games and gaming hardware, The Gamesmen also sells a variety of game-themed merchandise. Between the Pac-Man keyrings, the Plants vs Zombies plushies and the Pokemon wallets, there's plenty of paraphernalia to add to your collection.
