The Cinnimenson store closed, actually.  But the Gamers Realm in east windsor is still open.  If I still lived in jersey, that's where I'd be playing.

Flattery will get you no where, sir. ;)

I do most of my gaming at homes or at the Monmouth RPS club in Long Branch.

I go to the lan center in Millville called Uplink. They opened about a year and some months ago, and have been doing strong. They're not limited to just PCs though. They hold Magic TG tournaments as well (I'm trying to teach people how to play the WoW tcg too but I'm the only one in town who buys cards >_<). I used to run D&D there as well but it was more like ADD because no one would shut up and let me get a word out and kept randomly leaving the game so I stopped doing that. But they have 16-18 PCs, an 84" projector with 2.1 and headphones for the 360, they have 2 separate TVs (one for Wii and one for GCN for SSB:M tournaments), and host monthly lock-ins. All in all a really awesome place to play and chill. Its on High Street in Millville if there's anyone in the area who wants to stop in. You can't miss it. Its the store whose interior is all nVidia green.  ;D

Have a street address? Last time I drove through Millville I went down High Street and didn't notice it.

The only gaming store I know of within an hour's drive of my place closed a year ago.

In the rare case I want to pick up something for myself that I don't yet have, I order from Amazon or wait for a con with a Dealer's Room. To play, when enough of them are in the area, I host gamedays for close friends at my place (some have been part of the same group for over a decade now). I've also occasionally traveled to central Jersey or White Plains for gaming.

Typically, I get my gaming fix at cons and via World of Warcraft.

(I swear, I actually typo'ed that as "World of Warcrack".)

I like All Things Fun, but the last time I was there, the entire store smelled like it had been hosed down with Febreeze. Not only am I allergic to it, I think it smells terrible. The games I bought all had to aired out for almost two weeks before I could get near them without coughing and choking. The folks who run the place are super nice.

Yes, the Cinnaminson Gamer's Realm closed up shop about two years ago. They didn't cater too much to board gamers, but seemed to have lots of RPG and miniatures stuff.

For online ordering of board games, I'd go with Games Surplus. Best prices and great service.
