Hollywood Video and Game Crazy (although I've never stepped foot in the latter), because of the fact that I liked the former for their big new releases section, even if you saw numerous copies of the same title on one shelf column! I did like the cartoon characters they showed on the wall border above the display shelves in the new-releases section. There was Taz, Alvin, Princess Jasmine, Sonic, etc. There were so many of those characters on those borders!
I also miss Service Merchandise. I loved looking in the SM catalogs at home and wanting to go the one in Lima, OH (now a Hobby Lobby), but only went there a few times, the last time when it was going out of business about 12 or 13 years ago.
Value City is another store I miss, because I spent most of my child hood was spent shopping there (especially the floor tiling looked like pizza dough and sauce to me), my family typically buying clothing and shoes, and if we were lucky, toys, which were also bought at nearby Circus World, another store I dearly miss the most. I've bought a number of toys there at said Circus World, as well as video games that became part of my childhood Sega Genesis game collection.
