Get Schooled
Phoenix Games enjoys communicating and educating our customers with helpful and knowledgeable advice. The Gamer School section of our website was designed and created to provide our customers with some basic information regarding purchases or collecting.
You’ll find a variety of information, articles, and videos discussing the gaming industry. For example, did you know that Playstation 2 systems have various readers that can go out, yet, still be able to play games? Or how to tell the difference between a Pokemon clone and a real one? Wondering why your old Nintendo Zapper doesn’t work on your fancy new flat screen TV? You’ll find the answers to these and many other questions here.
Or maybe you have a question or suggestion, some helpful advice? Get in touch and let us know. We update the Gamer School section periodically, so check back to find more information.
Phoenix Games – we always knew you’d go back to school.
