Poketto Yeah, even though the N64 is home to some of the best games of all time... I'm not big into it either but I gotta say, the N64 has quite a few really outstanding games...
It's a bit baffling to me too since the GBA has a library and title quality on par with the SNES. I love finding cheap assorted GBA titles at the flea market. But at least he got the PSP titles, another portable where you can find real gems for cheap at the flea market.
What's this? Pat's playing the charm card on not one, but two lovely ladies? I wasn't taking notes. I swear. I really found the negotiation process interesting. In the end, Pat came away with a pretty good deal-- but he really had to work for it. I'm an awful negotiator, so I never would've been able to pull anything like that off... but watching this process-- or what The Shady Jay Show does on episodes of The Game Chasers-- gives me some idea of how the process *can* work. I'm not the most assertive person, though; I tend to accept prices at face value rather than try to whittle them down. The whole experience with the TI-99 system was unfortunate, too. Ugh. I'm a big fan of this series, Pat, and often live vicariously through your swap meet adventures. Thanks so much for continuing to put the time into it!
Sweet that you scored chrono trigger, breath of fire 2 and lufia 2 in one go. I love flea markets and swap meets, you always find some neat stuff and on occasion an awesome score.
***** Awesome! Thank you. I've never had a chance to play that game, even though I've wanted to ever since I saw the HVGN review of the Gargoyle's Quest trilogy.
You're very welcome! I actually need to play that game myself still. I just had a good hunch that if I listened to it's soundtrack, I'd find the awesome song!
Brandish is a pretty cool game. It's sort of an action RPG that was also ported to other systems like the PC Engine and PC-98. It was recently rereleased on the PSP
Brandish is an awesome game! I had to pick up mine in that same condition for nearly $55.00 at my local video game store, but so worth it! I love this game! Thanks for sharing the video.
Go to the Ashland hillbilly flea market in the Ashland, KY, which is in the tri-state, between, WV, OH, & KY. It has a ton of games, from nes, to snes, to any game system.
I love the end to the video. That always happens to me when I leave. I love that swap meet. I live over here in L.A. the pasadena swap meet is ten times bigger but not as half as good as SD one.
in the more recent episode, not sure which one, where you find those CED videodiscs, those are great. i picked up a few of those at my local Goodwill a year or so ago - Gremlins, Ghostbusters, Back To The Future, Cloak and Dagger and a couple others. You can find the player still online but people are asking a bit too much for them. I love the art on them and was thinking of getting them framed and matted to really make it pop
Man, I wish they had flea markets like that where I live in crappy old WIsconsin. Well, I'm sure Wisconsin has some but not out by me. Great episode Pat!
I havent been to a flea market in years, and it looks like Im not missing out on much. Sellers are there to pretty much get rid of the stuff cluttering their basement/attic/garage etc. If you find something worth some money you can at least have the decency of selling it at around 50% of ebay prices. People are looking for a deal, you are looking for extra cash and saved space in your house. Make the deal happen.
I love non sports trading cards! Garbage Pale kids are my favorite. :) I wish they had as many as the used to. Whenever I find the retro ones at a thrift store, I have to get them! They are awesome.
Ugh! Pat, I wish I can take ypu to our huge fleamarkets here in Altoona, PA! I bought a gamegear with Sonic 2 in it for 5 bucks, and found a huge amount of He Man, Mask, Ghostbusters, Star Wars, Transformers, Voltron figures etc etc ETC! And they were all priced at like 1 - 2 bucks. They had a COMPLETE Millennium Falcon except the box, but with ALL the pieces for just TEN bucks! I was thinking the whole time, "I wish Pat could see this!" :(
I'd dearly love a flea market around here (Columbus OH) that had all those games and stuff. But as for that TI-99 4/a...guess I'm lucky to have my Volunteers of America (local thrift) just a few minutes' walk from me. I've found a later-model Commodore 64, two TI-99 4/as (One beige, one silver and black) and one TRS-80, $4.94 each because the people who put them out, they seem to think they're just fancy computer keyboards and put them with the other boards. I usually have to grab the accessories separately ($1.91 for the power adapter and 90 cents for the TV hookup), but they're still good prices. Now if I could only find a 1541 disc drive for a similarly good price there....
Saw Motley Crue and so many bands of the 80's and 90's. But really good Swap Meet and I would hit up the Spring Valley Swap Meet as well. Miss SD. Awesome SNES pick-ups
Pat, you should add a quick total at the end of the video reflecting total spent for day and total avg eBay price with total savings. Great video! ... Totally! (just wanted to add that word one more time)
I know this might seem a bit out of place but Pat, please consider reviewing The Rocketeer on NES! I feel like there's quite a Bit you could say about it and Vol.24 of NP has a walkthrough of it :)
I got to say, this looked really fun, especially when going to a flea market. Although it can be a turn-off as well when there aren't any good deals and/or sellers tend to be stubborn with their prices. Yea, I totally understand, 200 dollars was too much. It's good to approach things with caution. I go to a used books store called McKay, and they have some pretty neat stuff there. I bought judge dredd comics, a resident evil 2 music soundtrack, some ps2 games like devil may cry, under the skin, primal and others. Sadly, I haven't bought any nes/snes games, since I don't own a nes or snes console. But, I will try to own one. Anyways, I wish you the best of luck and happy hunting Pat!
would be cool to have people phone in and ask questions and pat and ian answer them on the podcast. would be cool i think it would raise the amount of volume of view, make the pod cast more interesting and would be fun to hear some nerdy banter.
Still my favorite series =p I love the fleamarkets I have both stories of me getting awesome deals but also screwed over. In my area it's an hour and a half ish by car to go to a large market. I had a friend there and he was a reseller but he wasn't overpriced. He always had fairly decent deals and worked with people. He also taken in trade on stuff and what's more he lets you bring stuff back. I traded an Atari Jaguar off of him for 23 bucks. That didn't work and he did trade it out for me but I was so bummed. He did a lot of dealing so once in a while things got through bad not on purpose though. Might not have been a great system but I wanted one for my collection. The shame is he isn't there no more. Someone traded in some stolen stuff and he didn't know it was and he got in big trouble over it. I miss having him around I even got a new ps3 off of him back when they were expensive. Not meaning anything against the other work you do just this series is my favorite because I love swap meets so much. Always hoping to see more Swap meets.
I'm not sure why, but this has been one of my favorite youtube series. In all, it's 240p glory.
Pat doesn't know how to appreciate the GBA, probably the best handheld ever...
Poketto Yeah, even though the N64 is home to some of the best games of all time... I'm not big into it either but I gotta say, the N64 has quite a few really outstanding games...
Pat has Lonely Goomba to handle those
Karen Elizabeth I guess pat isn't big into handhelds... While the lonely goomba only plays handhelds...
Ruko Michiharu And we're still waiting for Ian's Happy Handhelds show!
Someday... someday...
It's a bit baffling to me too since the GBA has a library and title quality on par with the SNES. I love finding cheap assorted GBA titles at the flea market.
But at least he got the PSP titles, another portable where you can find real gems for cheap at the flea market.

Steam is better Can we see a less play of the game you collected?
Peter Skerritt That was a very insightful post. Also very well-written.
That girl was mad uncomfortable when Pat hit on her lmfaooo
"I'm not really saving that much."
Saves almost what he paid :P
7:51 - Speaking of something you can get in and out of quickly...
Hey Pat you could've picked up that gal...missed opportunity
+SampsoNThEFee In the spirit of the episode: Yuuup!!!
Pat that girl was mad cute. you shoulda been in an out of her lol 😂😂😂😂
11:42 "Get outta the road, you damn hippie!"
I was watching random Pat videos in my feed today, can anyone imagine getting that lot of SNES games for $200 in 2023?
even more in 2024 lol
This is my favorite episode by far. Nice to see Pat so animated.
Pat is the master of picking up girls at the flea market, its really an art in a way
No
0:28 that is hilarious, don't know why it cracks me up that much. Keep the flea market goodness coming, Pat & Franck!
Love the hard work to add graphics and noises when the prices come up, lots of extra work
I like the song at the end that played while showing Pat's buys. The song is from the NES game, Demon's Crest - Palace of Decadence.
I love the "Reseller Alert" parts!
That Pokemon/Warcraft girl was pretty cute Pat. I have no doubt you exchanged digits afterwards :)
I figured it out!....Frank is Marc maron incognito!
Pat's biological clock be tickin
Anyone know the music at 11:50? It sounds familiar but I can't put my finger on it.
Some smooth moves with the ladies there Pat
Is it just me, or did the guy say "Twenty bucks" for the pong console not 40
radioactivechimp Woops, typo!
Just slap a UA-cam annotation over it
Karen Elizabeth Done!
Pat the NES Punk sadly only pc users can see annotations. Chromecast firetv android etc etc all cant see them
shadoom Yeah, though, that's the best that can be done. Re-uploading the fixed video itself could cause some undesired confusion, too...
9:02 I had that same model of tan and brown Fisher Price cassette player as a kid!
Sweet that you scored chrono trigger, breath of fire 2 and lufia 2 in one go. I love flea markets and swap meets, you always find some neat stuff and on occasion an awesome score.
What music is playing during the "what did Pat get" segment at the end?
I'd like to know too plz
It's from Demon's Crest... which is fitting since he got the game!
ua-cam.com/video/VN5u60S3l6I/v-deo.html
***** Awesome! Thank you. I've never had a chance to play that game, even though I've wanted to ever since I saw the HVGN review of the Gargoyle's Quest trilogy.
You're very welcome! I actually need to play that game myself still. I just had a good hunch that if I listened to it's soundtrack, I'd find the awesome song!
Hope you keep making these, watched the whole series so good
what is the music at the end
Smooth moves on that girl, Pat! lol
Cool music at the end
I can't wait until it starts warming up around here and the outdoor flea markets start up again. Should be another month or two.
I see you picking up those chicks Pat
Pat, what is the song at the end of this video called?
4:28 a few years back I passed on a demon Crest copy more than likely it's the same one pat .lol
I always look forward to these Pat, thank you.
GBA is one of my favorite systems to collect and play. A lot of good games
These videos make my day for some reason. I just love the feel of them
Brandish is a pretty cool game. It's sort of an action RPG that was also ported to other systems like the PC Engine and PC-98. It was recently rereleased on the PSP
I was just thinking about Jem for some ungodly reason recently - that was such a great show as a kid. I rented the VHSes a ton.
Brandish is an awesome game! I had to pick up mine in that same condition for nearly $55.00 at my local video game store, but so worth it!
I love this game! Thanks for sharing the video.
When I heard Chrono Trigger, I had the biggest grin. My favorite game of all time.
Go to the Ashland hillbilly flea market in the Ashland, KY, which is in the tri-state, between, WV, OH, & KY. It has a ton of games, from nes, to snes, to any game system.
men, i wish there were flea markets in my country, old game prices are crazy in chile
Love the end music Pat good job
I love the end to the video. That always happens to me when I leave. I love that swap meet. I live over here in L.A. the pasadena swap meet is ten times bigger but not as half as good as SD one.
I have a ti-92 at home, it's basically a calculator laptop hybrid from the 90's, such a sick graphics calc
There was a Macintosh Portable at 8:28
I really wish you did more of these.
in the more recent episode, not sure which one, where you find those CED videodiscs, those are great. i picked up a few of those at my local Goodwill a year or so ago - Gremlins, Ghostbusters, Back To The Future, Cloak and Dagger and a couple others.

4:00 I swear he said twenty bucks not forty. When I turned on captions it said twenty as well!
I love non sports trading cards! Garbage Pale kids are my favorite. :) I wish they had as many as the used to. Whenever I find the retro ones at a thrift store, I have to get them! They are awesome.
Pat channeled is inner Dean Ambrose with that guy trying to sell that DDR set.
Awesome video Pat. Thanks for keeping them coming!
Pat has such game.
Par did u get her number?
11:43 "get out of the road, ya damn hippy". "run em over" lol
Damn.. you were really laying the moves on those ladies. Nice work. Next step is to follow up and seal the deal next time you see them.
That's awesome about Jem! If I remember correctly it came on after GI Joe & I caught a few myself! 😉
It's really cool that your dad does stuff with you Pat.
Love these so much. I'll be going to Englishtown all summer so maybe i'll record some of my adventures for you!
Pat dropping the swag with the ladies :-P
Ugh! Pat, I wish I can take ypu to our huge fleamarkets here in Altoona, PA! I bought a gamegear with Sonic 2 in it for 5 bucks, and found a huge amount of He Man, Mask, Ghostbusters, Star Wars, Transformers, Voltron figures etc etc ETC! And they were all priced at like 1 - 2 bucks. They had a COMPLETE Millennium Falcon except the box, but with ALL the pieces for just TEN bucks! I was thinking the whole time, "I wish Pat could see this!" :(
OH and not the new M Falcon either, it was the ORIGINAL from what...1979 I think it said?
Mrs. Yellow_Ledbetter I grew up in Bedford:p
Whenever Franks intro is played, what's that supposed to be from? Some random Famicom game?
I'd dearly love a flea market around here (Columbus OH) that had all those games and stuff. But as for that TI-99 4/a...guess I'm lucky to have my Volunteers of America (local thrift) just a few minutes' walk from me.

I usually have to grab the accessories separately ($1.91 for the power adapter and 90 cents for the TV hookup), but they're still good prices.
Now if I could only find a 1541 disc drive for a similarly good price there....
how much were the star wars on laserdisc?
Can anyone tell me where this song is from?? In the end where hes doing price comparison??
I can't believe you just passed up that original Macintosh Portable at 8:26
I miss flea markets. The ones up north are all closed for the winter.
8:03 a Dratini and a Zubat!
Pat, can you please tell me how you record your Flea Market Madness videos? I've wondered for so long.
i have so much to learn on haggling, this is awesome. subbed!
Wish Vancouver actually had a good flea market! Keep editing these pat, love em!
Wow, can't believe you had to work so hard for a deal on those SNES games. The retro market is getting insane!
Lol pat real smooth with that girl
Is this in the San Diego area??
Pat should take Ian with him, id love to hear Ian's commentary on prices and sellers.
Saw Motley Crue and so many bands of the 80's and 90's. But really good Swap Meet and I would hit up the Spring Valley Swap Meet as well. Miss SD. Awesome SNES pick-ups
Silly question, but what game is that from in the segment where Frank is introduced?
how much were they asking for the laser discs?
New Flea Market Madness, very cool!
Pat the NES Lothario!
Pat, you should add a quick total at the end of the video reflecting total spent for day and total avg eBay price with total savings. Great video! ... Totally! (just wanted to add that word one more time)
What song is playing when pat is showing what he got?
lol "I don't fucking care where you got them" ya kill me Pat
That girl wearing the green shirt is sooooo hot!
Pat, why didn't you make a move!? XD
I know this might seem a bit out of place but Pat, please consider reviewing The Rocketeer on NES! I feel like there's quite a Bit you could say about it and Vol.24 of NP has a walkthrough of it :)

What was the dope track for the end pricing. That was brilliant sounding.
I'd take that snes deal in a heart beat . Chrono trigger has been going for over 100 by itself
did you get that girl's number?
I love flea market madness. Take me with you on the next one!
does everything you buy go into a collection or do you trade/sell some of it? You must have so many double and triple of everything!!
Still my favorite series =p I love the fleamarkets I have both stories of me getting awesome deals but also screwed over. In my area it's an hour and a half ish by car to go to a large market.

Great episode. How much you asking on that dope Spirit shirt Frank?
Your flea market videos are really fun :)
Jelly on the sun and the opportunity to visit a flea market... northern germany is stuck in a monthlong fuck up weather.
Did you ask how much for the SW laser discs?
Oh that Jem audio casette is awesome!
The RCA studio II, the Pat The NES Punk meme.
I wonder if it has any homebrew?
Pat, when do you upload these?
