 		Jouette doesn't fit : it needs 3 spaces before the "ETTE" and only 1 (maybe 2) are available.

 		If it helps, most street names in Stockholm end either 'vägen' or 'gatan'

 		Yeah, I was thinking that maybe I ought to leave out the California (CA) bit. But 199 is a C, so Jouette wouldn't work anyway.

 		For Stockholm I have though for a something ending in -torg (like östermalmstorg). And Gatan doesn't fit except if it is abbreviated. And even then, nothing in the yellow pages (Eniro) in the game catagory fits... Sad

EDIT: Found it :
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
LEKSAKBORGEN, STOCKHOLM
It is ironically on östermalmstorg....


The same in Paris . No toy store, video game, retailer have a name that fit...

yeah, I should think more before I post sometimes Razz



EDIT:

okay, think I solved another one. but take out the CA as standing for California after Berkeley.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
for 199-224: Colette, Rue Saint Honore, Paris


on a roll! (though Colette may not be as much of a game-centered store)

 		It looks like there may only be 7 stores, not 9... unless 4 have really short names.

Possible we've made a mistake somewhere, or that 9 might actually be a 7..
