I had two great local shops but unfortunately neither of them made it through Covid, so this is a great tip. Thank you. Glad to see you got into the Etrian Odyssey series.
I hope you can get some good deals on these sites, sorry to hear about your local stores. And same! Glad to have most of the Etrian Odyssey games now, they are really unique experiences on the DS/3DS systems.
That Canadian discount 💖 Surprised they ship so cheaply to the US! That's amazing. I'll have to look into these stores the next time I'm looking for physical games
Yeah the CAD to USD rate is great rn, coupled with the free shipping they offer some really competitive prices for a bunch of stuff. They may not have super discounted recent games like you'll see occasionally from some US stores but they're great for picking up niche or harder to find items.
I bought infinite space from them when that game was crazy expensive. Occasionally I'll get stuff from Estarland. They have a physical location and online store.
Oh nice! I ordered my Persona Q/Q2 copies from them as well. Their pricing is often more reasonable than a lot of ebay listings and the exchange rate to USD is pretty good these days as well. Hope your copies arrive to you soon :)
Thanks! The day you uploaded this video. I browsed their haul, and got both Devil Survivor Overclocked & Record Breaker. It grand totaled I'd say $130ish, and free shipping. Today I received both, and even tho my package came dented. The contents were protected by that paper wrapping. Even if these aren't authentically sealed. I'm just glad to own these 2 gems CIB. Kinda wish I learned about this around January to March, where my Scales orders got delayed to May & July. However I will try to get a few things eventually if still available. Also I did some research on Video Games Plus, and found out they've suffered a data breach in 2012. Some recent comments suggest paying items through Pay pal in opposed to Credit/Debit cards just to be safe. Regardless thanks again for the suggestion, and I will try it again.
If you're referring to the lack of the y-fold seal, the shrink wrap seal is actually considered authentic for 3rd party last print runs. Atlus and a few other publishers did that for the last prints of their games for some reason. The last print run of Overclocked didn't come with a manual either I don't think though which is a pity. Also the website doesn't save your credit card information and uses shopify to checkout. So I think it's safe to use that payment method. They probably switched over to them after their data breach. But glad I put this store on your radar & that you were able to get the Devil Survivor games! They're both great.
@@orbalology I see! Thanks for clearing all that up for me. I noticed my copy of Overclocked is heavier than Record Breaker. So maybe it does have a manual. When I researched Video Games Plus. I did notice regardless of 2012's breach. A lot vouch for it being a reliable quality source for listed titles. Which is great, cus I really did see a fair amount of titles I've long been interested in owning. Thanks again for sharing these sites.
No problem! I also hope your copy comes with a manual - mine didn't but I purchased it from another store about a year ago so there may be inconsistencies with the shrink wrapped ones 🤷♀️
@@orbalology That's unfortunate. Had no idea such a thing was happening. Mine does have a manual. I know Record Breaker didn't get 1, so this noticeable weight difference kinda confirms it for me now. I really appreciate your feedback on these situations.
You’re an awesome person! Thank you for pointing this out. Your experience in this is too relatable, I’ve also received several World editions instead of the US versions advertised on other sites. I figure it’s still better than nothing, but it’s neither ideal nor satisfactory when this happens. Definitely going to check some of these sites. Thanks
Receiving those World editions unexpectedly is never fun. Glad I was able to let you know about these sites - they have some really decent prices & I like the transparency of what editions they are selling.
Metriod samsus returns is on my list.I just got the nes edition 3ds. You need to get Bloodstaind ritual of the night for switch if you like castlevania on 3ds
Nice video I couldn't really tell if this was specifically for sealed games and whether you plan to keep them sealed or open to play but appreciate you making it. I go through and watch a lot of different people making sealed game videos as I have my own collection more focused on ps3 and xbox 360 and interesting to see what other people are doing
Nice! I've really enjoyed collecting for the 3DS over the years. It's catalog is great & even the box art spines are super satisfying on the shelf too.
@@orbalology thanks for replying, I’m trying to limit my UA-cam consumption but I recently started watching your videos and enjoy them. I’m going to subscribe! 😁
Im trying to get Metroid on VGP but I’m from the us and it still says I have to pay 49.99 even it’s cad I’m unsure if it’s going to charge me 49.99 Cad or US Dollars ?
VGP will always charge in CAD, so you can either pay via paypal to convert the CAD to USD or you can use your US credit card and have your credit card company do the conversion for you. I do the latter because my card does not charge additional fees for currency conversions - so I recommend looking into your card's fee structure before choosing this option.

Oh I'll have to check them out, thanks!
Etrian Odyssey games are love! Nice pickup!
I'm really looking forward to these! Not 100% sure when I'll fit them in but hoping to try out at least IV sometime soon.
Great collection ☺️
I'm jelly of your pickups, going to head over there mysefl!
Hope you find some good deals on there! VGP has become one of my favorite online stores these last few months.
thanks for posting this video had no idea about videogamesplus decent prices when converting cad to nzd :) then usd to nzd
My pleasure! Glad I was able to put them on your radar - they have a nice selection of games for pretty good prices.
Thank you for this video, I had not heard of Video Games Plus. I just purchased Persona Q & PQ2, it was about $25 cheaper buying from them vs Ebay. 🙂
Oh nice! I ordered my Persona Q/Q2 copies from them as well. Their pricing is often more reasonable than a lot of ebay listings and the exchange rate to USD is pretty good these days as well. Hope your copies arrive to you soon :)
Samus Returns is very underrated imo

VideoGamesPlus are pretty good. I used them a lot before and had no problem with shipping internationally (I’m based in Europe).
They're great! Glad to know that they're also easy to order from in Europe as well!

I'm not a sealed collector myself. It's just nice to find a reliable store that still sells new 3DS games which is why I made this video.
Hi. I’m also collecting 3DS Wii U and Vita sealed games and unbox them on the channel ;)
ill check out videogamesplus as a canadian
Great video. 💙
Thank you 💕
Honestly 3ds games have gotten so expensive it is just wild.
They certainly have, it's a bit crazy how fast the 3DS collecting landscape has changed just in these last couple months.
Yea finding the 3ds stuff is tough. I just managed to get Andro dunos 2 for a good price
Nice!
I love collecting for the 3DS, but those games hold onto their value like the Viennese held onto Vienna in 1683.
I'm afraid some of the 3DS prices will only get worse in the coming years 🙈
@@orbalology Let it never be said, that 3DS collectors are not brave souls.
Splendid!!!
Thanks :)
3ds is the best to collect for. Lucky for me I have everything I want now because it is getting harder and harder.
