That seriously MADE our weekend! Thank you, John! You are the best, and we’re so appreciative of your friendship! We’re going to live stream it very soon!
Thanks for coming out to Greenville! I'm amazed how much this little convention has grown in the 2 years I've been in the area. We've got a couple other cons with SC ComicCon and Retro ToyCon that are growing just as fast!
keep the edits TIGHT. I wish we had time to hang out more that weekend! We were both doing random stuff in other directions. I'll see you again at future conventions.
This was my first time going to a game convention and it was so fun seeing all the stuff being displayed/sold there. The coolest one was definitely the Sega Saturn prototype (Sega Pluto)
What a great convention, I only got to see you and Metal Jesus at your panel but fair to say I was too busy digging through games to pay attention to who was there. I went home with 11 games total including long time hunts for me, Turtles in Time on the SNES and Mischief Makers on the N64. I also see you picking up Dungeon Magic as I type this, what an underrated Taito RPG! So much praise!
I was there last weekend, missed seeing you and Jason. Did meet Clint and Pat thought, super nice guys. Also, someone selling a copy of Stadium Games for $37k.
It was nice meeting you at SEGE, John. I was the big guy in the Pac Man shirt who took a selfie with you and Metal Jesus like a 45-year-old fanboy… cuz I am! Great video as always, my dude.
When that Movie Gallery sticker came up my mind was flooded with memories. There was a Wing King trailer in the same parking lot and every Friday my mom and I would rent a movie, a game and grab some wings and fries.
Great to meet you at the show brother! This video is great. Just shows how much fun you can have at game conventions without spending a ton of cash. Although I still ended up spending a buttload. Couldn’t help myself when them games were just whispering for me to buy em haha!
Retro Gaming Pandemic are some of the coolest guys I've got to know in the past year over at TORG and CORGS. What ever success they get is well deserved.
Hey, that was my little guy wearing the Yo-Kai watch in front of you at the Whatnot table! It was awesome meeting you this weekend, and we absolutely love the Nostalgia-O's book!
It was a blast having dinner with you and the rest of the guys at Grill Marks John! Also hi, I was the one guy you didn't know, but I'm glad everyone seemed to like their food since I picked out the place.
love these convention videos - wish i could join ya sometime - looks so fun :) - I enjoy all the things you see and people you run into etc - really fun stuff :)
It was my first con and it was awesome meeting you, metaljesus, game chasers. I was wearing playstation symbols hat and game chasers shirt. Said I love your channel and took photo with u and Jason, said your both taller in person lol
I need to know some of these vendors. I really like their stuff. I want that Sailor Moon and Madara print. I also like that NES cartridge that changes screens
awesome convention! got some great pickups and i got to meet riggs, riff , phoenix resale, retro gaming pandemic, metal jesus rocks , cheap finds gold mines too 😎 much thanks to #sege2022
Ha ha--yes! That RGP cart looks amazing--those guys are great! I mean, I like to take the GB to the bath, but having one with soap--now that's a game changer. lol Zelda temp tats? Sign me up! And those LttP map pieces are cool looking! Digging the arcade setups--just the con in general, wow, it's grown so much even since last year! The PE guys are such fun to chat with. Don't show the plushies--Lady Laci will pack the DK barrel with them! SEGE is to blame for the Rosalina pillowcase Lady Laci got--it's in our "embarrassing" collection vid. Whoa--that changing NES label piece is great! Eric & Jared's reaction was priceless--love it! The Mario cosplayers were incredible!
I hate that I missed you in my hometown John but I had the Covids and figured you weren't interested in sharing that with me. Hopefully I'll catch you next year.
Wow...the VHS-tape for "The Money Pit"...that's got to be really hard to find complete with box/slide these days (very rare I think?!). Miracle Warriors...I had the game in the 80s (complete in box with the map)...but never finished it. Would like to finish this game one of these days :)
7:51 okay that is too cool! wonder if they have an online shop? (same with those hand-drawn zelda maps would definitely cop one for my office corner!) so much cool stuff I wish we had a gaming con like that closer to us!
SUBSCRIBE if you want your own custom NES game!
I'll be doing more soon for subscribers and convention attendees.
Yeah I need this also lol
Where can I buy that book John!?
That seriously MADE our weekend! Thank you, John! You are the best, and we’re so appreciative of your friendship! We’re going to live stream it very soon!

1:30 Retro Rick meeting Metal Jesus.... *HISTORIC MOMENT IN GAMING‼️*
I noticed. Randomly captured on film.
@@JohnRiggs you should make that moment into an NFT and sell it for $1 million in a few years! 😂
Thanks for coming out to Greenville! I'm amazed how much this little convention has grown in the 2 years I've been in the area. We've got a couple other cons with SC ComicCon and Retro ToyCon that are growing just as fast!

What a great convention, I only got to see you and Metal Jesus at your panel but fair to say I was too busy digging through games to pay attention to who was there.

Old Town, Maine...that's where I live! Never heard of Wadleigh's, but pretty awesome to have a video store in your trailer park.
Great video, John Riggs! Sharing your collector's tips/tricks along the way is much appreciated! SEGE looked like a lot of fun!
I like those random cameo of youtubers in these videos. liked this one and metal jesus one.

16.8.22
Name a cooler UA-camr than John Riggs. I'll wait.
Steve Austin? He's not cool, he's stone cold.
I've been wanting to go to some of these cons. I've been holding off because, pandemic. I'm going to this one next year and the SFGE.
Awesome show. Looks like it was a lot of fun. Nice pick-ups.
Ha ha--yes! That RGP cart looks amazing--those guys are great!
I mean, I like to take the GB to the bath, but having one with soap--now that's a game changer. lol

I'm not sure what happens to liquid soap after a while. Would it still be usable? who knows.
That was such a fun interaction with Martha, and the Pandemic reaction was priceless!
Agreed
Caleb "whatnot" resale

Aww, terrible timing. Maybe next time.
We had a Betamax back in the day and my Dad bought one and the remote was corded, also I was 8 at the time.
"$2 each. This entire bin of games is $2 each!"
Looks in bin...
Every game is Fallout 76.
Where on Earth can I get a copy of Nostalgia O’s?
Awesome event, ehh I would like to visit such :/👍😎
The Mario gang should have won the cosplay contest
Looks like an awesome time John! One of these days I'll have to go to this convention.
We welcome you with open arms! Definitely come visit!
Wow...the VHS-tape for "The Money Pit"...that's got to be really hard to find complete with box/slide these days (very rare I think?!).
Miracle Warriors...I had the game in the 80s (complete in box with the map)...but never finished it.
