Super Side Quest

Tucked away in Southend-on-Sea, Super Side Quest is Essex's own slice of Japan, a retro gaming and anime store built for collectors, nostalgia-chasers, and anyone who grew up with a controller in hand. From cult classic consoles to rare Japanese imports you won't find on the high street, this is where gaming history lives on. Playable consoles and arcades sit right there in-store, so you can relive your favourite eras before you even reach the till.

• Rare Japanese Imports: Genuine collectibles sourced straight from Japan, from figures to hard-to-find titles you won't see anywhere else in Essex.
• Retro Game Cartridges & Consoles: A carefully curated selection spanning generations of gaming, from the classics to the cult favourites.
• Anime Collectibles: Figures, merch, and memorabilia for fans who want a piece of their favourite series on the shelf.
• Playable Arcades & Consoles: Test your skills in-store on working retro setups, because the whole point is playing, not just browsing.
