Would you like to see more of Jamie?
Yes, she's gorgeous!
@@impossiblepie you think so?
@@ToyAttics yes, she's stunning! Also great video
@@impossiblepie thanks so much!
Yes! She’s awesome
I died a little inside when she repacked the N64 upside down 😂
LOL i was so nervous because i figured i was doing it wrong
I came here to say the exact same thing! It triggered me so bad seeing her do that
the last the youtube needs is another pretty face to just get views. good god
Good luck with your life bud
thanks for calling me pretty!
Yo, how does the store owner get so much basic info wrong? Jaguar was cartridge based w/ only a handful of CD games w/ the add-on at the end of it's life. Japan is NTSC just like the US, it's Europe and others that are PAL region. C'mon dude. Still appreciate the video and collectibles but jeez.
It’s ok to not know
Kinda odd. I saw it I stores and played them briefly back then but even wikipedia has basic info on pretty much every console, home pc and micro ever 😂
This girl walks in with two bazongas in his eyes, would you not make the mistake?!
Jamie seems like a fun and cool person to be around. She has an awesome personality.
Glad you think so!
thanks 🥰 that's so sweet!!! happy you enjoyed it 🫶🏼
When Jamie smiles it takes me miles, from where I feel unsure.
When Jamie smiles I realise .... She's no ordinary girl !!
i looove that movie, also the best song ever (i'm biased) hahaha
@@jamesmcdonut What are you talking about ? I wrote that song just for you today 🤣🤣🤣 Don't believe Dusty 😉
@@Thugminista777🤣🤣🤣
The way she put the N64 back in the box...
@@Moradach was great right!?
@@ToyAttics it was awesome🤣
Thought so! Haha
Absolutely need more Jamie 👏🏻👏🏻
@@kellzxlovesxyou oh yea!?

What a stunning woman! And not afraid to peek out a bit of geek.
Another great video! Absolutely LOVE your channel! Keep up the great work!
Thanks so much for saying that! More with Jamie?

yeee thank you!!! 🎉
Love this!!
thanks so much!!! it was a lot of fun 🎮
Thanks so much!
I absolutely love the story where Jamie was telling how she accidentally saved over her brothers game in Final Fantasy. I can see the expression on her face and feel her emotions, when she was recalling that moment. It was almost has if we were reliving it thru her. Outstanding video, awesome store. I cant wait to see more content on this channel.
Great video but where are Batman the Animated Series toys, hum? :) I recently created a tribute to Kevin Conroy using these classic toys with some footage from Arkham City as a backdrop on my channel, pretty cool if I may say so myself :)
@@AnxMa it’s a video game store!
that sounds cool! we'll be on the lookout for them at the next toy store we go to 🫡
@@jamesmcdonut understands the mission!!
@@jamesmcdonut Hi, thanks for the feedback.
who is she?? yes of course we want to see more. I love how expressive she is😂
@@user-yq2ew2pq9v she’s an actor in LA. Follow her on IG
🎶Digimon Digital Monsters Digimon are the champions🎶
15:53 Did that dude just say the Japanese N64 was PAL?
?
Yes, I think it’s a Japanese box but someone has put a pal console inside
Yay I love Jamie she is my aunt !!!!
@@xScout_preppy that’s great! Great aunt!
love you Scouty! 💖🫶🏼🥹 being ur aunt is the best thing ever
@@jamesmcdonut ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Definitely need more of Jamie! Love you cuzzo!
More to come!
love you cuzzo ♥️♥️♥️
More Jamie!!!
@@jarrodmcclellan2548 heck yea! More comments like this!
yay!!! thank youuuu 🤩
😅 She packs the N64 upside down 😂 We all can see she's not a collector but is funny! Hope she makes more vids and get more knowledge! 😊
I don’t think knowing how to pack an n64 is the criteria to making you a collector or not
@@ToyAtticsCalm down! I enjoy the video and hope she makes more! She's not a game collector (for now) and that is not a problem! Dont take personal!
@@RetroNaipe ok ok. Sounds good
@@ToyAttics I'm a game/toy collector and my wife dont like but respect. She dont care about Styrofoam or package details. Just dont feed the trolls!
Came for the McDonut, stayed for the toy documentary
Much appreciation!
How did it look like a movie at the end? Was it a different camera? Different color grade?
Same
Yay for Jamie!
It’s so crazy but she gives me Rhea Ripley vibes. Badass 🤘
That's a great compliment.
Good stuff! Jamie is super entertaining 🤣
Thanks
Love the vendor concept wish there was one like that in nyc
Isn’t it great?
yeah that was really cool!
Those style consignment shops are definitely growing in popularity. Quite a few in the Virginia / West Virginia area
@@brianrowland8043 would love to know names and where because I drove through there once a month
@@ToyAttics Odd Balls Collectibles & Claire’s Antiques in Richmond VA is probably my favorite.
Bella’s Books in VA Beach is up and coming though it’s not consignment style.
Atomic Comics in Hampton is pretty dope though they are mostly magic and Pokémon. Perfect for @jamesmcdonut
I'll have to check this store out. Support your local shops!
Yes! Are you in LA?
that's right 👏🏼 👏🏼
@@ToyAttics Oceanside!
@@BlackCanvasAudiopretty 🤤
That was an awesome shop! That’s what I do is go hunting for old Toys and Video Games and film it. And she’s pretty cool too. I subscribed too
Thanks! Subbed you back!
@@ToyAttics awesome thank you!
You’re welcome! Hopefully you like our other videos!
I dig the video and I dig Jamie. She has a Cool vibe and she is hot obv. Also disregard the keyboard Warrior review critics that think their opinion matters. Keep up the good work and content!
Thanks! I appreciate that!
more video games and sneakers vlog ;) watching from Philippines. New Subbed
Sneakers vlog?
Flip flops vlog
Jamie awesome! I need that master chief statue.
Yea you do!
hell ya 🙌🏼
1994 unboxing?
Store is nice and clean. Always a plus 😊
Yes it is
No joke, I reckon four of your vids dropped at exactly the same time today - legit didn't know which one to watch first, lol...
From this channel or all my channels?
@@ToyAttics This, Toy Fed, Vala & Pixel Dan - just got the TF podcast to go haha
@@80sKid. awesome!
@80sKid. sounds like you have a busy morning ahead of you
@@jamesmcdonut I'm in Australia so it was a busy night. Also, a late one, lol. Nice job hosting!
@ToyAttics if you are going to get them to represent your channel, it's best to find someone who really knows what they are talking about. Otherwise, the content appears half dull. Words like "OK, Cool, Really?, Awsome!" Only show how clueless and disinterested the host of the channel is when it comes to any type of gaming. The store owner shown in the video deserved more than generic npc replies.
You’re an idiot
i was interested though 🧐 sorry you didn't like it!
@ToyAttics says the guy who asked his audience for feedback. If you are not ready to evaluate and accept all feedback, don't ask questions in the first place.
@@PapagulagYeah I kind of have to agree with you on this. I see what they are trying to do here, and I’m honestly not impressed. Big swing and miss for me!
You guys can think whatever you want.
All that hospitality by the owner and all you bought was a $10 pin???
I was looking for specifics
Abel cool AF
Yoooo! My boi hi af!!! Hahaha 😂
?
@@ToyAttics The store owner looked hi af imo lol
He was sick that day.
Love this Store
@@GamersAlleyOfficial thank you!
it was so cool
@@jamesmcdonut we gotta get you to @gamersalleyofficial for a video!
@@ToyAtticsi am so down 🙆🏼♀️
oh she’s fun! I like her
oooo tank you 😘😘😘
I like her too
@@ToyAtticsyay
Duh…you could probably get some pretty sweet deals too if she tags along.
@@gaminggambino8185 ha maybe so
Show your t.ts
No need for this
There’s Toy Tokyo and I’m pretty sure Video Games New York (is still) in Cooper Union in Manhattan, and of course The Nintendo Store in Rockefeller Center. Great Stuff!
Toy Tokyo?
Easy sub right here
Thanks so much
you saved over his HOURS AND HOURS of final fantasy that is such a blonde moment
It’s actually just being a kid
Jamie, will you marry me? Possibly? Maybe? Per chance?
i'm already married 💍 but thank you for the proposal 😉
Oh 😔💔 you miss 100% of the shots you don’t take
7:10 OOOF, I can't believe that the store allows their vendors to sell bootlegs/reproductions. YIKES 😬
What was bootleg?
@@ToyAttics All of the Pokemon games were reproduction.
@@TooFurious4 how can you tell?
@@ToyAttics The colors on the labels/stickers are off. They can never get that quite right. Also, Pokemon Green for GBC was never released in the US. That is a fan translation. These reproductions can be bought from China/AliExpress for $5 each. The vendor is probably flipping them for double or triple the price.
@@TooFurious4 maybe the price reflects that and they know
Jamie is great, but she played Digimon and Pokémon? Kinda wild ngl, it’s like East Coast v. West Coast, Tupac v. Biggie, Cats v. Dogs, LA v. SF - gotta pick a side, this ain’t a chocolate & vanilla swirly ice cream.
@@michaelcardoza5717 I happen to love both Biggie and Tupac. Also, LA v SF!? 🤣 that’s not a good analogy. Gotta go NYC
Giants and Dodger fans would disagree @@ToyAttics
@@ToyAtticsNot that I'm either
@@michaelcardoza5717 yea that’s true. Go Braves though
I CAN LIKE BOTH OK
Dude you ask people for feedback and you rip into folks in extremely low brow and hostile way? Good way to make people not touch your content with 30 foot pole bud. Not a good look.
@@GarudaDrgn00 show me where I did the to feedback and not to someone being rude.
Really took it personal with Papagulag there eh? Guy was hitting the mark some points to be hones I'm gonna gonna on a limb and say it's your woman or family but yikes went in full cobra kai there cheif.
@@GarudaDrgn00 no clue who that is but ok
None of these have my beloved NeoGeo stuff. 😅
Sorry! Maybe the next one!
@GruneD ahh sorry 😢 we'll look for thems
@@jamesmcdonut there’s one in Huntington Beach you guys need to look for it. I could invite you guys to see my collection but no cameras allowed. 😅
@@GruneDHuntington Beach it is!!!! Sound like you have an awesome collection, too - unfortunately we are all cameras 🤣😅
It's extremely rare to see Neo Geo AES stuff in stores. Not a lot of people have them due to how insanely expensive the games are. The average Neo Geo AES game goes for $200 to $400 and there are some that go for THOUSANDS of dollars. There are only about three or so games in the entire Neo Geo AES library that go for less than $100 and even then those "cheap" games are pushing $80. On top of this, scammers like to try to make fake Neo Geo AES cartridges, which causes a lot of Neo Geo buyers to demand the cartridges being opened so they can inspect the insides to make sure it's not a fake. A lot of stores don't want to deal with that. I know ONE store that sells Neo Geo AES games, but they don't keep them in the store for display. They only sell them to customers they know and only bring them out for them. As for Neo Geo CD, the games for that are A LOT cheaper, but they seem like they are harder to find out in the open. As for Neo Geo MVS, I've only encountered the cartridges online only. Even though I've seen a few places with Neo Geo MVS arcade cabinets in their stores, but they aren't for sale.
100% correct that famouns people shop here... ONLY. The prices in this store are by far the worst mark up you'll ever see. Most likely because the owner gives out massive handouts to famous people when they actually do come to this shop. I've been here about 10 times and I've seen the owner just flat out paying for people's purchases when they end up being famous people. Sometimes the cabinets that are from other vendors here have OK prices but anything being sold directly from LA videogames is marked up 40-55% They also have the same mark up when they vend at convetions. This is hands down the worst game shop in LA next to Game Hogs.
What do you base your comps on?
@@ToyAttics the unmarked videgame cabinets in the store are all owned locally by la video games. Their prices are always terrible.
@@samnoone8354 I know which ones are there I want to know what your basing your comps on
Definitely get her to do more. She's cool. Her being trapped in the cave in the game must've been traumatizing because she mentioned it twice! 😅
Haha! I think it was!
😂😂 i was very disappointed my pokemon trainer journey ended in a cave 🥲
Gyattttt
Her brain 🧠🤏
I think you meant your brain
@@ToyAttics My brain?
Yes
@@ToyAttics why?
Why do you say that?
❤😂😂🎉🎉🎉😢😢😢😮😮😮😅
Why cry
1:12 that seatbelt extender was fancy. What car is that?
@@NismoPWNS BMW
dammmmm
?
On next week’s episode. Jamie and her two black bulls go to a breeding party while this dude looks on with watery eyes ✊🏿 ✊🏿
What is this shit?
@@ToyAttics Go play with your toys while the men get down to bidness. DeShawn and Marqueis say hello
I think you’re an idiot
@@ToyAttics good luck with your channel, dawg. Woof.
Jamie played with her self
Tell me you know nothing about video games without telling me you know nothing about video games…
@@andrewkerns6777 waiting for you to do that
