Game Repair Shop is the repair counter inside the Gamers store at 2711 King Ln, Suite 202, in north Lincoln. Bring in a PlayStation, Xbox, Nintendo Switch, controller or retro system, tell us what it’s doing, and we’ll diagnose it. The $25 drop-off fee goes toward the repair, and you get a quote before any work starts.
We’ve repaired consoles in Nebraska for years. Owner David Mitchell started fixing systems at 14, and his board-level repair videos are on our YouTube channel. Board-level work (HDMI ports, power ICs, microsoldering) is what we focus on, and it’s work many general phone-repair shops send out.

How repair works in Lincoln, Omaha and by mail
Here’s how a Lincoln drop-off works. Omaha follows the same steps with free diagnosis and same-day turnaround, and mail-ins are covered on the mail-in page.
- Drop off. Bring the console (and the cable or controller if the problem involves it). No appointment needed.
- Diagnosis ($25, credited to the repair). We open it up and find the cause, whether that’s a cracked HDMI port, a failed power IC or simply a clogged fan.
- Quote and approval. We call or text you with the price. Nothing is repaired until you say yes.
- Repair and test. We test video output, power cycling, controllers and disc reads before we call you.
- Pick up. Your repair has a 30-day limited warranty.
Lincoln in-store repairs take 3 to 5 days. There’s a $25 fee at drop-off, and it’s credited toward your repair when you go ahead. Need it back today? See our same-day Omaha service.
