Rent to Own Gaming Systems – No Credit Needed
Look, we get it. Dropping $500+ on a PlayStation 5 or Xbox Series X isn't realistic for everyone. And honestly? It shouldn't have to be.
At RENTown, we specialize in rent to own gaming systems that let you take home the console you want today—starting at just $23.99/week. No massive upfront cost. No credit checks that ding your score. Just flexible payments that fit your life.
Whether you're hunting for a gaming systems store near me in Boise, Nampa, Pocatello, or any of our 10 locations across Idaho, Oregon, and Washington, we've got you covered. Walk in, pick your console, and start gaming the same day.
Desktop Gaming Systems & Laptop Gaming Systems
Console gaming isn't the only game in town. (See what I did there?)
We also carry desktop gaming systems and laptop gaming systems for PC gamers who want the horsepower to run everything from Elden Ring to Cyberpunk 2077 without the lag. Our gaming desktops start at $13.99/week, and our gaming laptops? Same deal—rent to own, no commitment, and if something breaks, we fix or replace it. Free.
Why buy a $1,200 gaming rig outright when you can rent it, test it, and own it over time? And if a newer model drops? Trade up through our Benefits² Club. Easy.
Video Gaming Rentals: Consoles, Accessories & Bundles
Here's what we stock for video gaming rentals:
PlayStation 5 – $33.99/week (the one everyone's been trying to get their hands on)
Xbox Series X – $39.99/week (Game Pass ready, if that's your thing)
Nintendo Switch OLED – $23.99/week (perfect for families or portable play)
Steam Deck – $34.99/week (PC gaming on the go? Yeah, we've got that too)
Gaming headsets, controllers, and accessories – because you can't game without decent audio
And yeah, we do bundles. Rent a console + TV together and save some cash. We're not trying to nickel-and-dime you here.
Why Rent to Own Gaming Systems at RENTown?
Because life happens. And sometimes you need a gaming setup now, not six months from now after you've saved up.
Here's what makes us different:
Flexible payments – Weekly or monthly, whatever works for you
120-day same-as-cash option – Pay it off early, no interest
Free service & repairs – Something breaks? We handle it. No extra fees.
Trade-in options – Upgrade to the latest console when it drops (Benefits² Club members get priority)
No credit needed – Seriously. We're not running your credit.
We've been doing this since we were a tiny TV repair shop in Ontario, Oregon. Now we're in our second generation of ownership, and we still operate the same way: Treat the customer the way you'd want to be treated.
That means no hidden fees, no runaround, and no "gotcha" fine print. You want a gaming system? We'll get you one.

Gaming Desktops, Laptops & Accessories
Not everyone's a console gamer. We know that.
If you're looking for a desktop gaming system with a dedicated GPU, RGB lighting, and enough RAM to run Starfield without your PC catching fire, we've got options. Same goes for laptop gaming systems—portable, powerful, and rent-to-own.
We carry brands like HP, Acer, and other top-tier manufacturers. And if you need a gaming monitor, mechanical keyboard, or a headset that doesn't sound like you're talking through a tin can? We've got those too.
Video Gaming Rentals: The Bottom Line
You don't need perfect credit. You don't need $1,000 sitting in your bank account. You just need to want to game.
That's what video gaming rentals are for. Rent the system you want, pay weekly or monthly, and own it over time. Or don't—return it if your situation changes. We're flexible like that.
Come see us at any of our many locations, or browse our inventory online. We'll get you gaming today.
Frequently Asked Questions About Gaming System Rentals
Can I rent to own a gaming system with bad credit?
Yes. We don't run credit checks at RENTown. Your credit score doesn't matter here—whether it's 500 or 800, you're approved. We've been helping people get the gaming systems they want for years, and we're not about to let a credit report stand in the way. Just bring a valid ID, proof of income, and a few references. That's it.
What's the cheapest gaming console to rent?
Our Nintendo Switch OLED starts at $23.99/week, making it our most affordable gaming console rental. But "cheapest" doesn't mean cheap quality—it's still the full OLED model with the upgraded screen and better speakers. If you're looking for something even more budget-friendly, ask about our refurbished options or current promotions. We run deals pretty regularly.
Do you rent gaming PCs or just consoles?
Both. We carry desktop gaming systems and laptop gaming systems alongside our console inventory. Our gaming desktops start at $13.99/week and come with dedicated graphics cards, plenty of RAM, and enough power to handle modern games. Gaming laptops start at the same price point. If you're a PC gamer, we've got you covered.
Can I return my gaming system if I don't like it?
Absolutely. Life changes, and we get that. If the system isn't working for you—or if your situation changes—you can return it. No long-term commitment, no penalties. That's the whole point of renting. You're not locked in like you would be if you bought it outright. Just bring it back to any of our locations.
How long does it take to own the gaming system?
It depends on your payment plan. We offer a 120-day same-as-cash option, which means if you pay it off within 120 days, you own it with no interest. If you go with our standard rent-to-own plan, ownership typically happens within 12-18 months depending on your payment schedule. And you can always pay it off early—there's no penalty for that.
What happens if my gaming console breaks?
We fix or replace it. Free. That's part of our service guarantee. If your PlayStation stops reading discs, or your Xbox won't turn on, or your Switch has a screen issue—bring it in. We'll handle it. You're not paying for repairs, and you're not stuck with a broken console. This is one of the biggest reasons people rent instead of buy.
Do you have gaming accessories like headsets and controllers?
Yes. We stock gaming headsets, extra controllers, charging stations, and other accessories. Some locations also carry gaming chairs, monitor stands, and RGB lighting setups. If you're building out a full gaming setup, we can help with that. Just ask what's in stock at your local RENTown.
Can I upgrade to a newer console later?
Yes, through our Benefits² Club. Members get trade-in options, which means when the next-gen console drops (or when you just want something different), you can trade up. You're not stuck with the same system forever. It's one of the perks of renting—you get flexibility that buying doesn't offer.
Which locations carry gaming systems?
All of our locations carry gaming systems, which include: Boise, Nampa, Pocatello, Idaho Falls, Twin Falls, Caldwell, Mountain Home, Lewiston (ID), Ontario (OR), and Pasco (WA). Inventory varies by location, so if you're looking for a specific console or gaming PC, call ahead or check online to make sure it's in stock.
Is rent to own more expensive than buying outright?
Over time, yes—you'll pay more than the retail price. But here's the thing: you're not just paying for the console. You're paying for flexibility, no credit checks, free repairs, and the ability to return it if life happens. Plus, you get to take it home today instead of waiting months to save up. For a lot of people, that trade-off is worth it.
Do you offer bundle deals for gaming systems and TVs?
We do. Rent a gaming console and a TV together, and we'll knock some money off the total weekly price. It's a popular option—especially for people setting up a new apartment or upgrading their living room. Ask about current bundle promotions when you visit.
Can I rent a Steam Deck or other handheld gaming systems?
Yes. We carry the Steam Deck (256GB LCD model) for $34.99/week. It's perfect if you want PC gaming on the go, or if you're curious about the Steam Deck but don't want to drop $400+ upfront to try it. If other handhelds come out (like the rumored new models), we'll likely stock those too.
