Keep a reminder of Rhino Video Games’ independent-store roots close at hand with this business card holder. Mike Vorce began with Video Plus in 1984, added game rentals as interest grew, and opened Rhino’s first dedicated game shop in Ocala in 1989. The business expanded from Florida into neighboring states, reaching 35 stores by 2003 before its assets changed hands. For collectors, Rhino’s history captures how local shops built a specialty retail identity through buying, selling, and trading games.
Rhino Video Games was an American retailer based in Gainesville, Florida, specializing in new and used video game software. Founder Mike Vorce opened movie-rental shop Video Plus in 1984, then added video game rentals after strong customer demand in 1988. In 1989, Vorce and early employee Bruce Ruckle opened Rhino’s first store in Ocala, Florida, on Silver Springs Boulevard. The shop focused exclusively on buying, selling, trading, and renting games and systems, an early specialty format in the southeastern United States. A Gainesville location followed in 1992, near the University of Florida. Vorce sold the remaining Video Plus stores in 1995 to focus on Rhino. In 1997, the chain ended rentals and concentrated on game trading. Expansion accelerated from 2000, when Rhino opened its first store outside Florida, in Hinesville, Georgia. The company established Gainesville corporate offices in 2001 and a neighboring distribution center in 2002; by 2003 it operated 35 stores. On May 17, 2004, Blockbuster acquired Rhino’s assets. Vorce and his team continued managing daily operations. Rhino then had 54 stores in nine states and more than 400 employees. GameStop acquired the business on January 4, 2007, and the stores were renamed by January 14.
