About
The record keepers since 1981.
Twin Galaxies began in 1981 in the small town of Ottumwa, Iowa, and quickly became the recognized authority on video game world records. What started as a single scoreboard in an arcade grew into the International Scoreboard: the official ledger of high scores and player achievement for the entire video game world.
For more than four decades, players have chased the top of that board. Twin Galaxies verified the runs, recorded the names, and settled the question every competitor cares about most: who is actually the best?
No Vid, No Did.
Our standard has never wavered. A claim is not a record until it is proven. Every score earned, every achievement recognized, every run backed by evidence. That commitment to integrity is why the Twin Galaxies name still carries weight, and why "No Vid, No Did." became a credo of competitive gaming.
Wear the record.
This store is the official home for Twin Galaxies gear: apparel, drinkware, flags, and flair built for players who understand that a high score is not luck. It is a receipt. From the 1982 designs that once hung in arcades to today's verified world records, every piece here carries the same history.
Ottumwa called itself the Video Game Capital of the World. We have spent over forty years proving it.
