What Will I Find at Leeds Gaming Market?
Hello and welcome to a very special video as this time we’re off to our first gaming market of 2025, Leeds Gaming Market!
It was an early start with my good friend @ps2manygames to make the long trip to Leeds but we knew it would be worth it!
That’s because there’s no better place to find the uncommon, rare and holy grail items for your collection than gaming markets, and you never know what you’ll find at gaming markets until you get there, but when I find that must have item, I’ll know!
I will be on the look out for PS2 and PS3 Platinum games for my biggest ever challenge for 2025 The PlayStation Platinum Trilogy, check it out here:
ua-cam.com/play/PLRR1qfBXnOHbJunJL8G6GLPA5uoaFOQQF.html&si=L18eFkoKQqd9Smt0
But that’s not all I’ll also be on hr hunt for NES games for my other challenge for 2025, The NES Top 40 at 40, check that out here:
ua-cam.com/play/PLRR1qfBXnOHYfgCu3uUXjqxtKtLHo3QSC.html&si=_R1oJ8xO-qj1JWC4
Leeds Gaming Market had an amazing selection of games for on Atari to Xbox, with so many amazing sellers including good friend of the channel @EdHunts whom we grab a blind bag from as well as an amazing price of retro for the collection, check his video from Leeds here:

The collectors editions are pricey but they are very above and beyond most collectors editions you get elsewhere. The days of going into CEX and buying 5 games for a tenner are coming to an end, so many people buy digitally therefore companys are doing small print runs in general so there is not going to be loads of second hand physical games in the wild for current gen consoles. If you want to avoid disappointment, physical collectors have to get on board buying new in some cases

      @DanTheGamesMan at first absolutely, and it'd make them feel like more of a sellout for arresting him but then when he tries to take over it'd have been more impactful than it was with The Nahualli (had to look up his name) and his redemption as a Saint in a potential sequel could have been a huge selling point. In the opening arrest mission I just randomly thought "this would have been a cool introduction for Johnny but maybe this guy will be equally good" and then as the game went on I couldn't get past how much that one change would have the game feel like more of a roller-coaster for long time fans

      There would have been a Kenner 'Judge Dredd'' 1995 toy line as well - however the film released as a 15/R rating. As a result Kenner cancelled the line. I can imagine they would have been incredible.

    Hey @DanTheGamesMan. Cracking start and looking forward to the series. Have a question if you don't mind? I'm just putting together my own game room and I'm due to start putting out my game soon. I'm a little concerned about the amount of sunlight in the room and possible fading, particularly my boxed consoles. Do you have any suggestions? I was looking at some UV film on Amazon, just not sure if it would cut the mustard? TIA

    Man yeah I must have about 30 funkos in my garage, they just aren't that cool anymore IMO. I have gone back to proper 1/7 statues on display personally. They are obviously more expensive and I have way less of them but I actually think it makes the space look far less cluttered and just in general better to look at

    • @DanTheGamesMan
      @DanTheGamesMan 8 днів тому

      Yeah I think it works better with more focal pieces like large statues, but then again I rotate my display periodically also. Yeah I think the time of Funkos has long passed…

      ​@DanTheGamesMan I always struggle with whether to take things out of the box or not, I have all the Zelda Amiibo unboxed because I want to use them, but also i know I devalued them all by doing that haha. So I only buy things I intend to keep long term but mostly all my figures is on display unboxed, mainly because for me I could just print off the box art for free if thats what I wanted to display lol but I understand why you hunt those see through boxes Amiibos are sort of annoying actually as you cant really put them back in. All my statues boxes are stored away and can be put back in if needed

    • @DanTheGamesMan
      @DanTheGamesMan 8 днів тому

      @ yeah amiibos are a tough one as they look really good boxed, but I think even better loose but then of course they lose a lot of value. It’s strange as I know I’ll never sell any of my bits but I just hate opening them knowing I’ll devalue them, does that sound weird?

    • @TheRealSlimsagey7
      @TheRealSlimsagey7 8 днів тому

      ​​​@@DanTheGamesManNa of course not, I think everyone should collect however they want. Personally I like being able to see my figures without all the carboard and plastic obscuring it but I sacrificed their value unsealing them. I guess for me I have no intention of selling my Street Fighter and Dark Stalkers figures for example, so devaluing them doesnt matter too much to me and I can enjoy them more outside of the box. I did however open the boxes with laser precision to ensure no tears or rips occurred and stored them in air tight containers lol I can put them back in if I ever need to, they wont be brand new but still retain most of the value I guess But again I dont think there is a wrong way of doing it, everyone should weigh the pros and cons and do whats best for them The amiibos are a lost cause, they will just be forever unboxed value now haha but they are part of my Zelda shrine so no intention at all of selling them.

    • @DanTheGamesMan
      @DanTheGamesMan 8 днів тому

      @ yeah exactly everyone collects differently and that’s why I love seeing other people’s collections. I do hate boxes where you can’t see the figure at all mind you, they suck and this will actively put me off buying the figure due to this reason.
