Retro rick bought my favorite game store, then jacked the prices up. He also sold my cousin a console that went out after 15 hours and wouldn't return it. Said that it was not broken before we got it.
Idk man I gotta side with Rick on this one. Whenever buying a retro console just has inherent risk to it, these things are old. The thing probably really was fine when they had it. Rick cannot be held accountable for what happens to it once it enters your home.
10:00 it wasn't banned. They were not really disallowed. IQue had a deal to produce them locally as it was actually not allowed to import game consoles. This way, the games could be scrutinized beforethey could be played. This has changed a lot now. It is easy to get a console, like PS5, Xbox, switch, etc.
It’s a weird story but Japan and China doesn’t have good relationships at time and China had a communist government that didn’t allowed that foreign brands made business on their territory, but also had trouble controlling their people so they need a way to maintain them entertained in other things, so the government pay the rights and licenses to Nintendo in order to use their games and some of their patents on China’s own consoles, so there exists many legal Chinese nintendo knockoff consoles including the portables
Japan and china have never and still don't have a good relationship and china is still a communist country lol there's nothing wrong with communism, it's people who run the country like dictators that make communism look bad
Fun to watch these types of videos (RR, Froggy Flips), because being in my mid 40s I have a large collection of similar items in my basement stored away and/or out for my kids to enjoy and its amazing how resale can be sometimes. I would have never thought it at the time.
When I worked at Gamestop circa 2002, you could get a used, shrink-wrapped N64, any color for $30. Also NES games were like $3 at the time. It was a recession at the time, so if anyone is paying attention...
I really like how lately there's a new Retro Rick or Retro Rick's gamepoint video every night when I get home from work. I feel like Kylo Ren in the Last Jedi. More..... MORE!!!!
Rick has some great negotiation skills that you can use in a lot of situations. Like that last deal. He gets them to throw out a number first. Then ask what the lowest they can go is. He got $150 knocked off of it without much hassle.
@@kevingunderson5726 Yeah this little retropalooza or whatever just seems like a place for vendors to advertise and for the 2 big youtubers in the room to get insane deals for further advertisement.
I´m a collector from Germany and I collected all the Game Boy Pockets over the years. They typically came in these shells over here. So I guess that´s a PAL thing. Same with the "Play it Loud" editions, these came in a plastic shell as well that could also hold some games.
really wish I had more money to get my collection going. I just started to rebuild it a few months ago and it's been an incredibly slow go. But it's getting there!
4:40 that guys has not a fucking clue what a Sony PVM is 😂 they way he explained it it’s the way my wife would explain it if some one ask her about my monitors at home
I thought it was going to be a video on the Treamcast. Wasn’t expecting this plug n play console. So you had to bring it back to a kiosk each and every time you wanted to play a new game in China?
Rick, Buddy, Skipper, Sammy... with the iCue. Will you be able to get more games for it some how? I wanna know...what you're thinking. - Toronto, Canada.
U showed why the market will crash prices go up bc people want to relive memories or play games they didn't get to as a child. People are not buying things they can't play, never heard of, or can't get games for maybe a small niche, but i think u just bought that ique at ceiling prices 😂
Dude, that Nintendo iQue is awesome! Too bad it's so expensive, otherwise I'd buy it off of ya and add it to my own nintendo collection. I LOVE rare Nintendo merch of all kinds. I'm glad you guys are able to find it all when you go picking, even at the Conventions.
i have a first gen Panasonic flat panel plasma screen, pc in and out, video, s-video and rgb inputs. msrp was over 5000 when I bought it from pc richards on slong island, ny at approx y2k. i use it daily and works great . make offer. i may have the receipt
That cutout art that lafys selling for a fortune my woman makes it for half the price LMFAO its all machine made and super easy fuck might hit up comic con this year
My best find was from 3 years ago, at a garage sale, see an N64 box, it was towards to the of the day. Thought either they want too much or the system isnt in it. I look and theres the system, two zelda ganes in box complete and 3 other complete games, i ask how much and the dad says $10, the son then says $20. I say $15. 😂
Man my poor ass can't afford retro stuff anymore. I miss the days of lots in the early eBay days where you could get loads of games for cheap, I use to give away my extra copies because it was so cheap. Sadly I'm back to the high seas and Everdrives at least I can play the games. I love retro but hate the pricing that only people who are rich or use games as a tax write-off due to them being used in "Content" their unlimited buying power has ruined it for the little guy working 40+ hours a week.
Thrifting in general has become gentrified. People with money realized that poor people had something they enjoyed, so the decision was made to buy up as much as possible and make it unaffordable to anyone below a particular income bracket.
OMG just to let everyone know that I have 12 of the iQUE console they are brand new sealed never been opened, I actually bought at a Chinese mom and pop store nuff said OMG I’m very surprised didn’t know it was an official NINTENDO console all this time I thought it was just some cheap China controllers. 🤓

How much is clay fighter ? I had it 😢
4:00 this look like the monitors they had on the announcer tables in WWF. You would always see wrestlers pulling them off before destroying the table
Retro rick bought my favorite game store, then jacked the prices up. He also sold my cousin a console that went out after 15 hours and wouldn't return it. Said that it was not broken before we got it.
Damn dude
Not cool.
@Chronotri he's done a few others wrong too. But I don't know them personally, so it could just be lies.
Would love to hear more

Rare Gameboy in case, my brain immediately recognizes the Chrono Trigger cartridge right under it in the case.
Awesome video as always. I saw my wife and kid in the background. Got some stuff from your stall, appreciate it. I got them…. FOR MY SON! and myself.
Prices are absolutely stupid, this is why fakes are becoming a massive thing. I can get the exact same stuff for 90% less
Or just put the rom on a flash cart. The bubble will pop eventually though.

I feel like it's been a long time since we saw your game room!

China still has a communist government.
To be fair Japan and China have never had a good relationship
@0westdude 💯. Usually happens when someone tried to invade you for century's
Sounds like USSR and the Tetris game
Japan and china have never and still don't have a good relationship and china is still a communist country lol there's nothing wrong with communism, it's people who run the country like dictators that make communism look bad
Remember when Rick DIDN'T interrupt his videos with sponsorships??? Yeah, me too... :(

Seeing all these prices reminds me why I got out of retro game collecting and decided to stick to emulation.
Me too, but it's nice to see the stuff vicariously.
Dude it's so wholesome to see how excited ADHD sketcher got when you commented her. Goes to show how much pople value your opinion!
she values anyone that props her up on a pedstal, she does not care about him.
Hilarious the price she was asking for a few pieces of paper
Retro Rick is in a meat canyon video! ( new Melvins macabre video)
Bro you're in Meat Canyon's new video called "Nostalgia" lol
It's cool to see bootlegs growing value. I've seen bootleg vinyl records worth quite a bit, if they were printed where the music was banned
i dont think it's cool to see records grow in value. if you want to make money get into the stock market.

lilo and sitch on GBA was one of those games that shocked me with how pleasantly decent it is.
That ique 64 was a great find very cool nice buy Ricko 😅
I have a N64 iQue still sealed. Awesome find.
That ADHD girl was soooo happy you shouted her out Rick! Doin Gods work 🙏😎👊 Cool vid!
It was cool but did you see how much it cost!?
She was taxing for that homemade arts and crafts
We definitely need a room tour Rick
I really like how lately there's a new Retro Rick or Retro Rick's gamepoint video every night when I get home from work. I feel like Kylo Ren in the Last Jedi. More..... MORE!!!!
Dude!!! You’re literally in the latest Meat Canyon episode 😂😂
love seeing all these old toys
Rick has some great negotiation skills that you can use in a lot of situations. Like that last deal. He gets them to throw out a number first. Then ask what the lowest they can go is. He got $150 knocked off of it without much hassle.
The cameraman helps I’d guess…
@@kevingunderson5726 Yeah this little retropalooza or whatever just seems like a place for vendors to advertise and for the 2 big youtubers in the room to get insane deals for further advertisement.
$850 for a PC Engine GT with the upgraded screen? Dam that's expensive.
I´m a collector from Germany and I collected all the Game Boy Pockets over the years. They typically came in these shells over here. So I guess that´s a PAL thing. Same with the "Play it Loud" editions, these came in a plastic shell as well that could also hold some games.
I just ordered Street Fighter Alpha 1-3 for PS1 off EBay for my Japanese PS2. Also I had that Lilo and Stitch game, it’s badass!
Never knew about that lilo stitch GBA hidden gem that's awesome....
really wish I had more money to get my collection going. I just started to rebuild it a few months ago and it's been an incredibly slow go. But it's getting there!
The Sculptor's Cut.... one I will definitely never have. The sticker's doth make it sicker though!
Addy's purple GC beanie is super rad ✌️
I had an original Turbo Express when they came out pretty bad ghosting problem with the display how was the updated model?
I was expecting him to say he found the Clay Fighter game randomly on the sidewalk
Iykyk lol
Another great video rick
Cool episode!
Welcome to the iQue family! :)
4:40 that guys has not a fucking clue what a Sony PVM is 😂 they way he explained it it’s the way my wife would explain it if some one ask her about my monitors at home
Where is your store
I thought it was going to be a video on the Treamcast. Wasn’t expecting this plug n play console. So you had to bring it back to a kiosk each and every time you wanted to play a new game in China?
Part of me would have to let them know about that sculpters cut but the other part of me would take it for the $20
Rick, Buddy, Skipper, Sammy... with the iCue. Will you be able to get more games for it some how? I wanna know...what you're thinking. - Toronto, Canada.
$650 Is Insane for that, even the $800 was reasonable
U showed why the market will crash prices go up bc people want to relive memories or play games they didn't get to as a child. People are not buying things they can't play, never heard of, or can't get games for maybe a small niche, but i think u just bought that ique at ceiling prices 😂
These prices are insane!
I would have paid the 800 for the ICue. Been wanting one to tinker with
Retro Rick making moves
I need Jack bros to complete virtual boy collection!!!
2:14 my name is add like adderall😂🤭
That "iQue" thing looks JUST LIKE the original Xbox "The Duke" controller. lol
I have a sculptors cut myself, Ill sell it off one of these days.
Congrats you officially made it, meat canyon used your likeness in a video, props brother
funny how the biggest exporter of videogame knockoffs won't allow them into the country.
Sponsors need to relax with the scripts tho
i was just shown an ad for despicable me 4💀💀💀💀💀 they're still making sequel after sequel bro
125 for some layered paper? I ain’t hating get paid. Lol
Meat Canyon just made a cartoon about you and Phoenix Resale.
nice pick up rick

I remember watching a idiot that owns dk oldies smash a iQue sp because he thought it was fake 😂😂
Sent you a little something to the PO Box Rick. Hope it finds you well.
That cutout art that lafys selling for a fortune my woman makes it for half the price LMFAO its all machine made and super easy fuck might hit up comic con this year
Love me some CF:SC
Is it still ban?
More like 720 for that plug in play 😅
“Addy as in *addition*….okay
So what happened to the $10 collection of n64 stuff?
AVGN paved the way for your channel …AVGN is better than this guy …waaaay better
Retro swap and rad junk are the places I go weekly for my GameCube games.
There is nothing controversial about any of these consoles, “thanks” for the clickbait.
Did you actually watch the video and your thick or what?
those prices are stupid
Add sketches had a GameCube beanie????
salute from Kuwait
Ouch...650 for that...glad you like it though
tell me about these cinder blocks, will you?
I love Clay Fighter games. Any fighting fan say it's one of the worst fighting games can suck it! They are just bad at the game.
6:51 he has not a fucking clue what jack bros for the virtual boy is wow!!! Don’t you hate this “UA-camrs” thinking they know shit but they so green
Wait, china got an N64 controller designed for humans instead of that 3 handled monstrosity?
My best find was from 3 years ago, at a garage sale, see an N64 box, it was towards to the of the day. Thought either they want too much or the system isnt in it. I look and theres the system, two zelda ganes in box complete and 3 other complete games, i ask how much and the dad says $10, the son then says $20. I say $15. 😂
adhd sketcher and her name is addy... story adds up
the i que was a score
Anybody see the new MeatCanyon video??
You should take it to gamestop as a joke and see what they offer for it.
I honestly don’t get where some of y’all’s dumb comments that Rick doesn’t want to pay for anything. Dude always comes with fair offers

Stop cursing its a sin!!!!!!!...............
Good job rick keep it up
There is nothing controversial about the iQue.
#Nintendo #Nintendo64 🎮😊
I ha e the Lilo and Stitch GBA game.
Off topic.. but ffs.. what is going on with ricks hair?? 🤣🤣 hat maybe ?
retro rick

You mean you DON'T want the ultra rare, limited edition IRL NFTs?! Insanity! 😅
OMG just to let everyone know that I have 12 of the iQUE console they are brand new sealed never been opened, I actually bought at a Chinese mom and pop store nuff said OMG I’m very surprised didn’t know it was an official NINTENDO console all this time I thought it was just some cheap China controllers. 🤓
