Game Crazy is a video game retailer in the United States and is a fully owned subsidiary of Movie Gallery. The stores are often, but not always, located adjacent to Hollywood Video rental stores, also owned by Movie Gallery. As of December 31, 2006, there were 634 Game Crazy locations next to Hollywood Video stores.^[1] The store specializes in used games by offering trade-in credit to its customers, but also sells new products. Game Crazy contributed 13% to Movie Gallery's revenue for 2006, with 70% of its revenue coming from new and used software and 30% from new and used hardware products.^[1]

Competitors with a similar business model include GameStop and their subsidiary EB Games, which also specialize in new and used video games. In addition to customer trade-ins, the store sells used games once offered for rental in Hollywood Video stores.
