Thanks for coming out to Game On Expo guys! I'm sorry that that thief stole Chrono Trigger, and that is definitely not cool. We'll see you back at Game On Expo in March! Thanks again for the support!
I love how Riff wanted to make sure that Gabo was good with his big purchase and that it wasn’t going to be a financial burden on him. That’s the type of friend you would go to bat for.
That's one thing that concerns me about running a booth at a con. It can be hard to manage security if you don't have multiple people managing your booth. Hope they find the guy who stole it.
At some con in Belgium or The Netherlands some seller had his entire profit stolen must be devastating. I think I got robbed once for a 20-30 dollar game but still not 100% sure and another guy who grabbed cib instead of box+game after paying.. also not a game with huge value and I probably payed 1-2$ for it anyway but still not fun to happen
The thing is it’s not hard for sellers to invest some money into a ring camera or other battery operated cameras that will record during the whole con. It’s worth the price if you set up a lot and have high value items.
@618thrift I get that, but what's a camera gonna do if ya can't identify the guy or catch in act. I know it can be posted online to find them but not always 100% works. What I don't get if the person was looking at the $1000 game why wasent someone constantly eying them, I know those rare ones are always locked up. I dunno
There was a different booth at GameOn that had a tote of games on the floor to the side. There were copies of Kid Klown, Zombie Nation, bunch of other $100+ games. Just sitting on the floor where the people running the booth couldn't see. I'm surprised more stuff wasn't reported stolen
This was the first gaming convention my fiancé, Gaby, and I ever attended. We were fortunate to meet the PGS crew and Retro Rick. You guys were all just as cool and friendly in person as we could’ve hoped. Definitely one of the biggest highlights from the expo for us 🤙🏽👏🏽
$300 for one shirt! It's an awesome shirt but I don't think I could ever bring myself to spend that much on one shirt. I'm glad someone like you has it though for the sake of preservation. Good buy!
Dudes, I can’t say it enough, the cutaway convos are just so KILLER!! I love literally everything you guys put out, but these newest videos feel just so great and I think a big factor is the cutaways. Well done, y’all!
That was a good crazy taxi voice @ricky , riff & rick and the rest of pixel, keep doing what you do, love the content, love the comedy, love the finds.
Thanks for taking a brief moment to chat with me at the convention Riff, it was great to meet you and as I told you there, you make the best content, keep it up!
Wow, the title had me thinking one of the boys swooped in and snagged Chrono Trigger before Riff could get it. But an actual theft....that's awful. But I believe in karma. It will come back around.
Great video guys! It was great to meet everyone, thanks for chatting with me and my husband on the floor. We're definitely planning on making it out to SoCal Gaming Expo!
Retro Rick on his own channel, hard working family man, features his dad, son and beautiful wife on his videos regularly, owns his dream store and is endearingly sweet about it while giving selling/collecting tips and sings songs about Jesus as a regular job. Retro Rick on everyone else's channel, chaotic game goblin who constantly burns everyone verbally and terrorizes them for fun. 😂
One of the vendors at RetroWorld did that and when they turned their back on the unlocked case, some loser schmuck reached over and pulled something out.
Seriously looks like Y'all had so much fun at this event just goofing around. Need more of goofing around and makes me want to do the same at more events here in the UK!
I love that someone made new shells for Gus a few years ago. I was able to make a replica of the yellow Japanese Game Gear right down to the correct color buttons. Then I added USBC and a Mcwill screen. FYI, I sware that GG booth guy looks like David from Disturbed.
Great vid! Happy Gabbo got his Flintstones NES game. Sucks about that Chrono Trigger being kleped though. Is the blurred dude in the orange on the thumbnail screen the suspect?!?!?
We don't have this scene in Australia, population difference obviously means less in circulation over here. We don't really have flea markets or second hand shops on the level of goodwill in any capacity. :( I lost all my old game systems, games and memorabilia in a house fire in 2008. Thanks to your crew and Retro, at least I can enjoy vicariously. Legends 😎. My 2.5yo Son and I enjoy the content so much!
Probably the same guy who stole Sculptures Cut? One of the drifters that just spends his early mornings wandering around Chris store b/c that makes sense lol
I mean, u can still get channels with a regular set of rabbit ears. It's digital though, so I'm wondering if there's like a small mod to the motherboard that would make it work? I use rabbit ears with my smart TV and get more channels than direct TV subscribers, lol
You guys have some of the best content on UA-cam, keep up the good work. I’m looking forward to the next video. Also I can’t believe somebody would steal something that valuable and not get caught, it must have taken a while for those guys to find something that valuable and complete in box. And now their hard earned money has gone to waste because of someone like that.
For a second there I thought there was ajoke about Gabbo trading in the Chrono Trigger... big RIP. Absolute scumbags would steal something like that... scum.
That sucks to hear about Chrono Trigger. I’ve had something stolen too while vending at a convention, but it was nowhere near that expensive. Hopefully it’ll turn up
Man I wish I lived in bigger cities like you guys. Must be nice to have gaming store options for days. Plus, conventions. In my town, all we have is Gamestop. =(
If that TV Tuner works, he could touch rf/coax cable to the antenna. You could scale any console down with an rf modulator. Playing PS5 games on a Gamegear would be pretty cool.
Count me all in on Gabbo's SNES hole collection. We're totally down to see that hole get filled. So sad to be reminded of how trash people can be sometimes with that stolen CT...
I was selling at the swap meet and also got some games and a game & watch stolen. Sucks but I enjoyed interacting with all the peeps that came by. There is always a bad apple in the bunch.
King of Dragons is the first game i bought for my collection, 2004 ( i lost my original snes/collection in a move in 1998), i paid probably 15 bucks for it then. 100 bucks now, goodness :) great find.
I don't have the box I don't think but I still have my Sega Game Gear TV Tuner Pack I used to use back in the day as my TV in my room ;) I have the Game Gear carry case which has a spot for it and the Game Gear and accessories.
Crime requires motivation, justification, and opportunity. The motivation is obvious; games are fun. The justification is that they're too expensive and it's a mostly physically harmless crime. More visible staff or security at cons would go a looooong way towards mitigating opportunity/perceived opportunity. And it has the benefit of making cons more inviting to women and families.
Thanks for coming out to Game On Expo guys! I'm sorry that that thief stole Chrono Trigger, and that is definitely not cool. We'll see you back at Game On Expo in March! Thanks again for the support!
You know he’s just going to sell it, collectors will buy it and broke gamers will emulate just to play it.
@@missingno81 I am thinking that I recently heard that Chrono Trigger was gonna be available on the switch store or as a remake for the switch?
@@jasonleveck8546 wouldn’t surprise me, but i want a physical copy. I see no point in renting out the game at full price.
@@missingno81 Yup. I came here to say that. I am broke. I pick up carts here and there. Never in box!
I love how Riff wanted to make sure that Gabo was good with his big purchase and that it wasn’t going to be a financial burden on him. That’s the type of friend you would go to bat for.
That is very cool!

I saw the title and it never even crossed my mind someone would have actually stole, I assumed it was a joke that Rick got a good deal or something

What a sad ending to such a great video. Appreciate you taking the time to put it out there Riff. Some people just need to be better.

That is the niece at thing I have read all day! Thank you so so soooo much!
@@PixelGameSquad you smell.

Ricky that was such a great Crazy Taxi guy impression! Throw on some “Lit” for extra 1999 vibes!
Dudes, I can’t say it enough, the cutaway convos are just so KILLER!! I love literally everything you guys put out, but these newest videos feel just so great and I think a big factor is the cutaways. Well done, y’all!
That was a good crazy taxi voice @ricky , riff & rick and the rest of pixel, keep doing what you do, love the content, love the comedy, love the finds.
Incredible energy in this video from all the crew. Such a fun video!!!
I can see the kids come out of all of you when y’all start digging thru boxes and getting excited. Lol. Long live the 90s!!
Riff is the type of friend you need in your corner when you’re about to make a big purchase!
Thanks for taking a brief moment to chat with me at the convention Riff, it was great to meet you and as I told you there, you make the best content, keep it up!
Gabbo needs to make a streaming channel where he streams every NES and SNES game and reviews them.
Wow, the title had me thinking one of the boys swooped in and snagged Chrono Trigger before Riff could get it. But an actual theft....that's awful. But I believe in karma. It will come back around.
Did gabo just say "mustard in my pocket" ? Or was it monster in my pocket? 😂😂 You can't ever tell with that guy 😂
Jesterday
I love gabbos hat lol. And that small soldiers sign was nice!
Just gotta say I LOVE bringing back the old "picker style" cutaways for explanations!
Give retro Rick a raise
Yes hahahaha
I love how the guy that sold the Game Gear Tuner has a box labeled "Hentai" right behind him.
hell yeah haha
Great video guys! It was great to meet everyone, thanks for chatting with me and my husband on the floor. We're definitely planning on making it out to SoCal Gaming Expo!
I love the crew all goofing off I liked the buds hanging out around 13 minute mark.
They should add a food section in these conventions. You get excited and forget that you haven’t eaten all day but don’t want to leave.
Retro Rick on his own channel, hard working family man, features his dad, son and beautiful wife on his videos regularly, owns his dream store and is endearingly sweet about it while giving selling/collecting tips and sings songs about Jesus as a regular job.

So great to see you again - Love it! Sucks about that CT... Felt so bad for that guy that had it stolen 😞
I love formatting and pacing of the video. 🤙🏽🤙🏽 good hob Riffo
Thanks so so much! Jared and I have been working together to make it all smoooooth ❤️
@@PixelGameSquad did you mean to say "long friending stand" at 18:57? lmao
yeah it was very well made!
I like the format of footage with interviews in between it’s easier for me to concentrate on the video for some reason lol
Finally I got a CIB chrono trigger!!
That’s why you gotta put your high value items in a plastic clear case and only bring them out upon request
One of the vendors at RetroWorld did that and when they turned their back on the unlocked case, some loser schmuck reached over and pulled something out.
Gabbo is so chill. I just want to play games and eat cereal with him for a day.
Ricky's Super Mario transformation is almost complete 😂
The masked guy at the end! lol! Great show!
Seriously looks like Y'all had so much fun at this event just goofing around. Need more of goofing around and makes me want to do the same at more events here in the UK!
That’s so awesome! We gotta have fun. If we don’t then why even do it? 🤩 Appreciate you watching!
Screw that thief, glad yall have fun and was being yourselves. So many grail pickups. Keep up the great content!!
I love that someone made new shells for Gus a few years ago. I was able to make a replica of the yellow Japanese Game Gear right down to the correct color buttons. Then I added USBC and a Mcwill screen. FYI, I sware that GG booth guy looks like David from Disturbed.
Rick gave me east bound and down vibes when he said that Greenland Iceland bit haha cracked me up
Congrats Gabbo! 👍 One big step closer 😎
Congrats, Gabbo! You’re kindness and passion is infectious. Great vid as usual, guys! FFFFFF that chrono trigger douche. Love yallllllll #4my🌞
Kris looks just like Chester Cheetah now that I've seen them next to each other. Uncanny 😂
I like how RIFF knows about all these games and gives feedback he's an actual gamer lol
Loved the video guys! Thanks for sharing your experience at Game On Expo.
I don't know what I love more, that Devil's Crush t shirt or the Game Gear TV Tuner!!! Totally fucked up of someone to steal that Chrono Trigger!
I love Gabos accent. Extra merit for being a metalhead 😁
Great vid! Happy Gabbo got his Flintstones NES game. Sucks about that Chrono Trigger being kleped though. Is the blurred dude in the orange on the thumbnail screen the suspect?!?!?

You guys truly have something special
You are! 🤍
Thanks again for the Nintendo 64 newspaper article, you guys are the best !
Probably the same guy who stole Sculptures Cut? One of the drifters that just spends his early mornings wandering around Chris store b/c that makes sense lol
This New Ricky With a Mustache is Dumby Hard.
Where is Kris's sister? :P And Rick should have tried that TV tuner in that modded Game Gear.
Hahaha I’m sending this to Kris 😂
I mean, u can still get channels with a regular set of rabbit ears. It's digital though, so I'm wondering if there's like a small mod to the motherboard that would make it work? I use rabbit ears with my smart TV and get more channels than direct TV subscribers, lol
I totally agree...the Flintstones games on nes are so under rated...I find them so fun
That bastard... pretty sure it was some big guy with a brown card! Great video guys
Gabbo slid in that Riff looks like Alf with them shirts and that took me out😂
You guys have some of the best content on UA-cam, keep up the good work. I’m looking forward to the next video.
Also I can’t believe somebody would steal something that valuable and not get caught, it must have taken a while for those guys to find something that valuable and complete in box. And now their hard earned money has gone to waste because of someone like that.
I heard Kris knows how to deal with dirty thiefs… EDGE SPEAR 😂
I'm not sure I can take Ricky with a mustache seriously. There's times he looks like Cheech out a Cheech and Chong movie.
For a second there I thought there was ajoke about Gabbo trading in the Chrono Trigger... big RIP. Absolute scumbags would steal something like that... scum.
Dang I didn’t know you guys come to phx I live in Tucson you guys push me to become better and always for the deal. Thank you for all you do!!!
That sucks to hear about Chrono Trigger. I’ve had something stolen too while vending at a convention, but it was nowhere near that expensive. Hopefully it’ll turn up
The problem is that it likely won’t. Unless there is something really identifiable about that specific copy
@@indy5280or if someone recognized the guy who did it and tracked him down.
Congrats for completing the collection!
The Shackables were at Game-On, cool dudes from Frank & Sons with great prices. They sold the Flintstones peak to Gabbo 🎉🎉🎉
Charging 1000 for a game is theft though...
Gee I wish I could find a good deal on Illusion Of Gaia but the clam shell edition! With what I remember back in 1994! Plus with that Large T-Shirt!
For comedy's sake I'll just assume that guy with the Turbo Grafx shirt walked around for hours with no shirt on afterwards
Yes !!! We got another video !!!! Screw the individual that stole that video game
Man I wish I lived in bigger cities like you guys. Must be nice to have gaming store options for days. Plus, conventions.
In my town, all we have is Gamestop. =(
I didn’t even know this page was still around. UA-cam hasn’t suggested any videos in foreverrrr
“Bc i use the brown card 🤷🏽♂️“ 🤣🤣✊🏼
It works legit hahaha
@@PixelGameSquad I’m already knowing bro 😂
The guy selling the game gears kinda looks like the vocalist for Disturbed lmfao.
Gabbo always going for the Brown Card huehue
The thumbnail had me rolling 😂😂😂
If that TV Tuner works, he could touch rf/coax cable to the antenna. You could scale any console down with an rf modulator. Playing PS5 games on a Gamegear would be pretty cool.
In our collecting group we have a lot of people who act as vendors at these shows, and they talk about stuff that gets stolen every year.
That’s so sad and horrible to hear!
Something is not right lol I famous Gabbo quote
Dare you to use the input on the Game Gear TV Tuner to play SNES games on it..... do it!!!!
LOL at Long Friending Stands
I done know iffa eva tole you, but I love videos with Gabbo! A true gentle giant😁
gabbo's version of C.R.E.A.M. might have beaten the OG 🔥 😭
I have an E3 booth display shirt from 1996. Only 3 were made for the display of Ten Pin Alley. If you are looking for weird hard to find.
Count me all in on Gabbo's SNES hole collection. We're totally down to see that hole get filled.
So sad to be reminded of how trash people can be sometimes with that stolen CT...
Gabbo is obsessed with holes
The best show in town
I could watch you guys all day here in Australia.
i love when gabbo is on lol
Be as stupid as you can, new merch line... Great to see all the boys having such a good time together ❤️ ❤❤
Dang i live in the valley and ive never ever heard on this con! Ill have to go to the next one
I was selling at the swap meet and also got some games and a game & watch stolen. Sucks but I enjoyed interacting with all the peeps that came by. There is always a bad apple in the bunch.
King of Dragons is the first game i bought for my collection, 2004 ( i lost my original snes/collection in a move in 1998), i paid probably 15 bucks for it then. 100 bucks now, goodness :) great find.
we love an off the back pick up! super sweet shirt 🤙🤙
whoever stole that chrono trigger, may god have mercy on you
mexican dude seemed so drunk the whole trip reminded me of my theo
the best and most entertaining show on youtube. big love from new zealand pixel squuuuawwwd.
Now we can match in our Turbografx Shirts! Happy for ya bud!
Desperate times unfortunately. Give it back thief!
You can use the TV tuner with alligators clips on the antenna
This was a great video! Loved all the commentary as Riff mentioned! Sorry to that seller who got robbed that blows. Karma's a (use your imagination)
I don't have the box I don't think but I still have my Sega Game Gear TV Tuner Pack I used to use back in the day as my TV in my room ;)
I have the Game Gear carry case which has a spot for it and the Game Gear and accessories.
Is it just me or did gabbo sound like he was saying mustard in my pocket
Crime requires motivation, justification, and opportunity. The motivation is obvious; games are fun. The justification is that they're too expensive and it's a mostly physically harmless crime.

Riff you better chase that thief!!!! For your boy Luis!!!!!
