I watch a bit of all the youtubers that attend Sege each year. I do find the shocking game hunting format a little tiring , and he can get a bit goofy among the 90s nostalgia at his store. Still Retro Rick actually does seem excited to meet fans, which is a good sign of authenticity. This backseat ride along also shows how much preparation and planning goes into their episodes.
Great video. Rick really is a great dude off camera. My boys were so stoked to meet him this year at SEGE. He was chill and took time to chat with them. It was nice. Made them so happy
been watching him since march 2019 . i was one of the earliest viewers of his first gameroom tour. when covid hit, he saved me from boredom with the $10 collection
Very cool video. I’ve only seen Retro Rick from other ToyTubers as I’m not a big video game collector. It was awesome to see how they make it happen with their channel.
Extremely well done video. Rick and Michael are some of my favorite people to bump into at conventions. Really cool to see them from this angle, really well done. Gives a person a lot to think about when it comes to video creation.
As a retro gamer thats watched youtube for years, it was cool to see some of the behind the scenes. I was laughing at him talking to hecklin steve on the phone. You should of had more of Aaron on the video on how he edits ricks videos because i think one of the biggest parts to Retro Ricks rise besides the ones you pointed out in the video is the editing for the main channel.
@@ToyAttics Now that's interesting. I've watched a lot of pixel game squad and a lot of retro rick. I often wonder how they get along. They seem like very different people. Both good guys, but just different.
This was great, I love to see the side of things that we do usually do get to while watching vids. It helps put into perspective the effort, thought process, and work that goes into making content. Nice video, thank you!
Loved the video. I’m not a video guy, I don’t like to be on video either. I wouldn’t even know how to operate the camera, instead I’m an old school blogger (remember those?). I am fascinated about content providers and I love the different looks into their world you have provided. Keep up the great work!
So surreal to see Retro Rick at the video game cavern that's my local game store. Got some nice footage of them shopping, and planning their shots. Interesting to think of youtube videos as a story with a three act structure. I really had not considered that before. Great video appreciate your work.
I'm liking the variety in your videos. Each week is something different. Keep it up! Retro Rick and pixel game squad crew are the nicest guys. Maybe do a video of pixel game squad game hunting at their swap meet in socal would be fun.
so whos going to film the video of the guy filming a video of the guy filming a video of rick!? btw that shot at 26:34 was the best also you should look more into the camera!
@@ToyAttics there were a lot of shots of you speaking but the camera was off to the side and you were looking down. It’s definitely a specific style but i think you can connect more with people if you look into the camera!
I have to disagree with a lot of UA-camrs...when it comes to the thumbnail the picture itself is not important...its the subject matter that is important...its about the title of the video which tells the viewer what they can see...picture is meanlingless
Steve is actually a great guy. Heckin Steve can be very entertaining and funny. Sometimes, his opinion is a bit harsh, but it is his option, and I dont need to always agree to enjoy it. His content is evolving and can be a really fun watch. Honestly, if it wasn't for his videos, I might not have found Retro Rick and became a super fan.
Been watching Rick since pre pandemic. The $10 challenge had me hooked. Since Michael started showing up on screen I’ve not been as enjoying as much. He’s got “church friend I hired” vibes and just doesn’t entertain me.
@@ToyAtticsactually this video confirms everything I've always thought about him: that he's just playing a "character" on camera and that he cares more about money than about retro games. That's fine for a lot of people, but there's a reason comments are calling him inauthentic.
I like what you guys do but keep in mind you’re giving the criminal element their fill as well by showing off all your “behind the scenes” in these stores, just saying. Keeping some mystery in the store is what would bring me there.
@@ToyAttics not at all. I’ve watched him from when he started witth the $10 game collection. He was more humble and authentic, but since he’s gotten bigger , bought the game store, I just notice he’s not authentic. Something’s Off.
Retro Rick rubs me the wrong way like Phoenix Resale does, and everybody hates that guy. Watching a dude buy low from regular people and sell high is gross tbh. Some people were trading stuff in getting paid low of course, I'm not going to support that via a UA-cam watch, yuck. Like why, when there's a cavalcade of funner, more informative gaming UA-camrs.
But apparently you are ok with corporations paying little to nothing(buying low, selling high) and making obscene profits. Doing business is finding the lowest price and selling for the highest.
It's Nintendo Rick til he starts carrying real retro games. ATARI 2600, 7800, and 8 bit computer gaming. He has zero vintage items unless you are a Nintendo dead head.
So Rick did something to me where WhatNot got me banned from their app, just because i gave my opinion on a topic on Ricks Auction 1 year ago , thats why i have lost all credibility and respect for Retro Rick, he really puts a fake act sometimes like a bi polar personality. Thats what i know and i would not lie about this
@@ToyAttics what I'm trying to say is that Rick truly is not that of a great person like his friends give him credit for. He treats people like crap whenever he feels like it. He puts on this fake personality of a great guy. Which he is not.
@@ToyAttics believe me or not I know he isn't, I told you I got banned from WhatNot because of him, and I don't do nothing to him. Now I can't use the app at all.
I have found that people want to tear down or destroy someone or something that comes off as wholesome a lot in modern society. Especially if they come off giving that "Christian-ish" wholesome vibe. You saw with with some sports stars and even the rare wholesome hollyweird actor. Tear down or break is what society as a whole wants or tries to do. Maybe its because some can't believe there are actual good people(and a lot of fakes for sure) in the world, perhaps they are just evil too, and hate the light. Maybe they don't even know why or that they are the evil one, but as someone standing to the side watching I see it.
I can relate to the fatigue part, I do EBAY and I haven't had a day off. EBAY don't care it just keeps going I can relate to that part of your video I just replace UA-cam with EBAY
Do you watch Retro Rick?

Yes, tons of prep and planning to provide quality content for their fans!
Big fans of Rick!

Agreed. Longer vids.. and I like the behind the scenes stuff @retrorick

Great video. Rick really is a great dude off camera. My boys were so stoked to meet him this year at SEGE. He was chill and took time to chat with them. It was nice. Made them so happy

That’s a great story!
Awesome video! Both of your channels are amazing. I learned alot about UA-cam from this video as well, thank you for that. Take care.
That was me! I gave him the laserdisc.
Ha! That’s awesome!
@@ToyAttics great video by the way, I really enjoyed your style of storytelling.
I really appreciate that! Hopefully we got a sub out of you!
@@ToyAttics You did indeed
Very cool video. I’ve only seen Retro Rick from other ToyTubers as I’m not a big video game collector. It was awesome to see how they make it happen with their channel.
I'm so glad you enjoyed this video! I put a lot of work into it!

I can already tell Im gonna enjoy this video.. Looks like you put effort in your videos. Its what I like to see
Thanks for saying that!
Interesting, to see the thoughts & work they do for contents. Great work.
Isn't it though!?
Retro Rick and the whole crew all very cool nice group of people. all very wholesome
Yea they are!

@@ToyAtticsproud subscriber with notifications! Don’t think I’ve missed a video yet!
Havne't missed a video yet!?
I was not expecting a Heckin Steve cameo LMAO
Yep
I still have to watch last week's podcast. That's cool you're taking a break.
Great job on this video for sure. A true behind the scenes!
Thank you very much!
It was really cool to see a different aspect of him. He’s such an awesome dude!
Yes he is!
Very cool to see the behind the scenes

NOT TRUE,mind set and development.
You got the talent, just practice the execution.
I enjoy you being you!
Genuine, that’s what missing today:)
Thanks! Appreciate that!
This was a beautiful watch. This tickled the serotonin just right.
Appreciate that!
I like what you do, its different

Tag him and tell him you want it! I’ll be back in so cal at the end of the month
Great video man. Thanks for making it!
Thanks for watching it! Thanks for commenting!
Great channel..
Appreciate that!
Nice video. This is your wheelhouse.
Yep! If you watch my other videos they’re all like this too! Enjoy!
I kinda love retro rock and how wholesome he is. Goated
@@jonathanhoffmansanchez2723 thank you for the positive comments!
Such a dope video, thanks for this. Definitely gonna sub.
I really appreciate that!
This is cool man. Let's gooo 🎉
@@PermanentPixel hey thanks!
You do very well in front of the camera. Great video! Im a big fan of RR
Thanks! I don’t feel that way, but glad you do!
Great video
This was a really good video! Nicely done!
Thanks a ton!
Great
Thanks man!
Scott in the apron was a highlight for sure.
Heck yea! He’s the best!
so whos going to film the video of the guy filming a video of the guy filming a video of rick!?
btw that shot at 26:34 was the best also you should look more into the camera!
Look more into the camera?
@@ToyAttics there were a lot of shots of you speaking but the camera was off to the side and you were looking down. It’s definitely a specific style but i think you can connect more with people if you look into the camera!
Ah, yea, I am a documentarian so I film that way.
The main shot is me looking at camera though. I can’t look at two cameras at once
I just want to clarify that I like Retro Rick as a dude, I just disagree with some of his business tactics.
Reasons?
@@ToyAttics He buys stock from GameStop for his own store and sells for a markup. This was what one of my videos was about.
@@steviefreakinc do we like GameStop?
@@ToyAttics I do, they provide a lot of benefits to pro members. They also sell retro games for much cheaper than resellers.
Ah, always been a fan of supporting my local shops personally.
Chief Wahoo!!!
?
I have to disagree with a lot of UA-camrs...when it comes to the thumbnail the picture itself is not important...its the subject matter that is important...its about the title of the video which tells the viewer what they can see...picture is meanlingless
@@Madfrito99 definitely not meaningless. Title is important though
They really FaceTimed Heckin Steve 👀 lmao
@@WildwoodNJVideos yes they did
Steve is actually a great guy. Heckin Steve can be very entertaining and funny. Sometimes, his opinion is a bit harsh, but it is his option, and I dont need to always agree to enjoy it.

It’s his friend from college
@@ToyAttics so pretty much. Glad they’re having fun, he’s just not my cup of tea.
Ok…
What type of camera do you use? Thanks!
I use several
@@ToyAttics okay. I guess sort of the main one that seems to be used throughout the video? It’s just good quality and curious what it is.
I use sony cameras, and then a variety of lenses.
First video I won’t watch in full. Can’t stand him. Comes across so phony.
@@lonm6928 ha then this is exactly the video you need to watch in full
@@ToyAttics pass. Until next week.
@@lonm6928 don’t worry about it
@@ToyAtticsactually this video confirms everything I've always thought about him: that he's just playing a "character" on camera and that he cares more about money than about retro games. That's fine for a lot of people, but there's a reason comments are calling him inauthentic.
@@dmc2008 it’s not a lack of authenticy it’s being “on” for the camera
I like what you guys do but keep in mind you’re giving the criminal element their fill as well by showing off all your “behind the scenes” in these stores, just saying. Keeping some mystery in the store is what would bring me there.
@@alexhickenbottom2820 what?
Not really into Retro Rick. He’s a lil too “UA-camry”.
What does that mean?
agreed. Something is Disingenuous about him, and i don't think many people really picks up on that.
This is what you gathered after watching this video!?
@@ToyAttics not at all. I’ve watched him from when he started witth the $10 game collection. He was more humble and authentic, but since he’s gotten bigger , bought the game store, I just notice he’s not authentic. Something’s Off.
@@henryblazer20 still pretty authentic and humble
Positive algorithm comment
Ha thanks
Always knew rick was a homey... seeing serious Rick squares the circle. He should start a channel where he doesn't do the character.
I don’t think it would do as well
@@ToyAttics Yea you're probably right. It'd break the fourth wall. But it is cool to see regular Rick.
I like the behind the scenes.
I appreciate that! More Behind the scenes with other UA-camrs coming soon
love @retrorick 👍🏼💪🏼
He's great! Thanks for watching and commenting! Please check out the rest of our content!
NINTENDO RICK

So you didn’t watch?
But apparently you are ok with corporations paying little to nothing(buying low, selling high) and making obscene profits. Doing business is finding the lowest price and selling for the highest.
@@lordboston05 I think if he watched he would have a different opinion
@@lordboston05what a totally logical conclusion you’ve come to. Think first, then type.
Think first then type are words to live by...
Begging for attention 🙄
Me?!
It's Nintendo Rick til he starts carrying real retro games. ATARI 2600, 7800, and 8 bit computer gaming. He has zero vintage items unless you are a Nintendo dead head.
This sounds like the groaning of an old man who has prejudices
@@ToyAttics hahaha, just can't find retro 8 bit locally. i am old
boring
This comment? Yes
So Rick did something to me where WhatNot got me banned from their app, just because i gave my opinion on a topic on Ricks Auction 1 year ago , thats why i have lost all credibility and respect for Retro Rick, he really puts a fake act sometimes like a bi polar personality.

@@juantorres1730 that’s just not something that would happen unless you did something. And you won’t tell me what that was
Theres something about Retro rick that never sat right with me? Theres something definitely fishy with him.

You do great work toy attics😊
And you have the like to be in front the camera you don't have to be as animated as Rick to be good on camera.
Thanks for watching!
