I've heard of most of those in video games and stuff. Reality is I don't even know where you would find any of them but blue berries and cranberries, maybe goji berries are relatively common since I hear them mentioned often. However, I can't really see any point to this aside from silly pedantry since I doubt many people have even heard of any of those options aside from blueberries cranberries (which are not known for tasting good) and maybe goji berries.

If you want fresh/frozen, you're probably going to have to go out of your way to find anything other than blueberries and cranberries. A lot of the berries are rather regional and not commercialized. Goji berries got considered a "super food" by health nuts and are easily found dried. Depending on where you live you can find some of them at local farmers markets. Other than that, you'd have to rely on specialty stores or grow your own. Gooseberries/currants are somewhat hard to find in the US due to previous bans on the plants (still banned in some states), but are more common in Europe. Cranberries are delicious, but they're rather sour and most people apparently hate sour things.

Huckleberries, if they count. I think they're related to blueberries though I admit my knowledge of plants is very limited. They grow a lot around where I'm at.

Yep. Huckleberries count. I didn't have enough room on the poll, and they got bumped off to the comments since they have no commercial presence and are rather regional. Both huckleberries and blueberries are in the heather family.
