South Bay - Indepedent Video Game Stores?

Do any independent video game stores still exist in the South Bay?
I'm in the Santa Clara/San Jose area and I'm at the stage where I can start collecting video games again. I picked up Gears 3 from my local Gamestop but I miss a real video game store. Do any still exist in South Bay or did they all close up shop?

Response by poster: I've been looking at those sorts of places and I've been to a couple of them but none of them carry video games sadly.
The closest thing I found was Gamers in Control down in Salinas but a three hour round trip to buy a game is not attractive.

Your best bet might be looking for places that are not video game stores as their primary business. More along the lines of board game/comic/hobby stores, consumer electronics, video rental (as sparse as those are).
